We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Fiona for organizing our trip to China in December 2023. We spent 16 days exploring this amazing country and met the hospitable people of China. It was the best vacation of our lives, thanks to Fiona and Nihao China Tour (NCT) for arranging this trip for us; none of this would have been possible without them. Everything ran like clockwork, without any delays, perfectly organized. Thank you, Fiona. We started from Beijing, toured Yunnan, which I had dreamed of visiting since childhood, saw the Terracotta Warriors in Xi’an, and enjoyed the urban charm of Shanghai.

We had the absolute best time! Everything was wonderful, especially not having to worry about guides and transportation. Nihao China Tour did an excellent job in coordinating everything. I truly recommend them and have already told several people! Let me give some specifics! Eric in Xi'an was fantastic. He was always willing to communicate between us and the street vendors, explaining what they were selling. If we weren't interested, he would politely tell them, and they would leave. We only know a few basic Chinese phrases, so this was very helpful and reassuring. Allen in Zhangjiajie was charming, polite, and inspiring! He was very knowledgeable about everything and did an excellent job keeping us informed and engaged. His photography skills were also commendable, helping us take some unique shots at the mountain top! Grace in Yunnan was passionate and informative. The drivers were very polite, punctual, and helpful—overall, it was an unforgettable holiday and truly fulfilled an item on our bucket list. If we decide to visit another place we're interested in, like Tibet, we will definitely reach out to them again. Our coordinator Lily was patient, helpful, and a great expert advisor!

A seamless experience from start to finish! Nina helped me arrange an unforgettable trip to China. As a solo traveler, having a driver and an English-speaking guide at each location made me feel very secure. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating to my interests and physical needs. The hotels were lovely, safe, clean, and well-located.

Special thanks to Sally, who was very friendly and professional, making our journey smoother. Don, the driver in Beijing, was excellent, always punctual and helpful. The service of the NCT team made us feel very comfortable and happy. The wonderful memories of this trip will remain in my heart forever.
