A wonderful customized trip to China. I picked the exact activities I wanted to do, and our travel consultant Nina made sure all these activities were included at a reasonable price. All the guides were extremely knowledgeable, and it was delightful to spend a day with them. All the accommodations were fantastic, well-located, and comfortable. Communication via email was very convenient, and we really appreciated their attention to detail. I highly recommend Nihao China Tour to anyone planning a trip to China; their level of service is unparalleled.

Stella and NCT (Nihao China Tour) planned and prepared our trip to China for the eight of us, and they did an outstanding job. The hotels and domestic flights she selected were excellent. The hotels offered plentiful breakfasts, friendly staff, convenient locations, and a great atmosphere. The guides and drivers were knowledgeable and helpful. Pre-checking in for domestic flights reduced airport stress and anxiety. I would definitely recommend Stella and NCT to anyone considering visiting China! Thank you for providing such an unforgettable experience.

Our experience with NCT was great. Right from the start, Nina listened to what we thought was important and crafted a perfect itinerary. The guides, hotel accommodations, dining arrangements, and transportation logistics all went smoothly. All we had to do was show up on time. Our guides were knowledgeable, polite, and enjoyable to be around. Our experience included a food tour, museum visits, and lots of cultural education, making the trip unforgettable. We had busy days but also quiet times to relax and explore on our own. Overall, this was a once-in-a-lifetime trip. I highly recommend NCT.

This was the most adventurous trip our family has ever experienced, exceeding our expectations. The organization and pacing of the entire journey were perfect. I contacted NCT in January 2024 to start planning our 12-day family trip in July, and Lucy responded very quickly to help us craft the perfect itinerary. We adjusted the schedule to meet our family's needs, adding a visit to the panda base and a day to explore Beijing on our own. Within a week, all details were finalized and booked. Now, let's talk about the actual trip! All our guides and transfer services were private. Our guide in Chengdu and Sanxingdui was Grace. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic in sharing the history of each site we visited. We gained a deep understanding of Chinese culture and hope to continue learning more, thanks to Grace. Our guide in Tibet was Andy. He was also very knowledgeable and passionate, taking many wonderful family photos for us. We had ample time to explore the Potala Palace with several breaks. Special thanks to Lucy, who helped resolve logistical issues and answered our pre-trip questions! Also, thanks to our driver, Ben, who safely took us to each destination! I will recommend NCT to everyone and hope to book another trip with them in the future. This was a once-in-a-lifetime journey, and we will never stop talking about this experience. Thanks again to Lucy and the team!
