This trip was very well organized, and we didn't have to worry about any details related to travel, drivers, guides, or locations. The guides spoke excellent English and matched our pace. The whole experience went very smoothly. The hotels were great, I just wish I had more time to enjoy them. It felt like I rushed through the trip. I brought back wonderful memories of China and hope to return soon to enjoy more of the food and the surroundings. Thank you for organizing this trip in such a short time, I really appreciate it.

Nihao China Tour has been excellent from start to finish. Snow contacted me on the same day when I initially reached out to the company. She was polite, responsive, and very knowledgeable... She worked with me to plan the best itinerary for my family and me. The planning process was very smooth, and Snow kept in touch until we departed for China. In China, I thought everything went very smoothly. The guides were outstanding, and our experiences went as planned, even exceeding our expectations in most cases. I highly recommend Nihao China Tour to anyone planning a trip to China.

From the very beginning, the customized itinerary and additional suggestions (Yulong Snow Mountain might be our favorite hike) provided by Nihao China Tour (NCT) made travel planning effortless. But from the moment we landed, the service and meticulous attention from the drivers and NCT representatives were impeccable. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we didn't have to worry about anything, allowing us to truly enjoy all the beautiful scenery and rich culture China has to offer. The hotels in Yunnan, Chengdu, and Shanghai were all centrally located. The hotel in Yunnan was a hidden paradise with stunning mountain views. Our favorite part of the trip was undoubtedly spending time with each knowledgeable and friendly guide. Learning about the history and background made us appreciate every step of our journey even more. Not to mention, these guides might also be professional photographers who know the best spots to capture memories. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better trip and have already recommended NCT to all our friends and family. We are also considering our next trip to China with them.

Our trip to China was amazing! We worked with Nina from NCT, who arranged the perfect itinerary for us. Our tour guides, Linda in Xi'an and Allen in Chengdu, were both wonderful! They were very knowledgeable about the attractions we visited. We gained a new and deeper understanding of Chinese culture and people. The hotels we stayed at were excellent. The hotel staff were very helpful, and the rooms were very comfortable. The food was delicious, and we enjoyed many great Chinese dishes. The drivers who picked us up from the airport and the NCT representatives, as well as the drivers who transported us between hotels and train stations, were all outstanding. We have already told our friends to contact NCT because we only have great things to say about the trip they arranged for us! We hope they will help us plan future trips in other regions! We give NCT a 10 out of 10!!!
