My fiancée and I traveled in China for 13 days, and everything went smoothly! We didn't encounter any problems. The tour guides and drivers were always punctual or even early, and there were no mishaps along the way. I particularly want to thank our Xi'an guide, Eric. The other guides were great too, but Eric made our travel experience especially unforgettable. He was energetic and sincerely showed us the most intimate parts of his country, places that were not only important to foreigners but also held special significance for him. He didn't just recite facts; he shared his childhood memories of growing up in each region and used analogies to help us better understand why ancient Chinese people had certain beliefs and why they built structures in specific ways. When someone is passionate about their work, it makes all the difference, and I will always remember everything Eric showed and explained to us. Thank you very much, Eric, for sharing your passion and appreciation for this country with us!

Perfect. The itinerary was easy to follow and prepare for. The guide picked us up on time, was friendly, and spoke excellent English. The hotel was beautiful, and all breakfasts were included and quite wonderful. I would trust Nihao China Tour again. Fiona was able to make adjustments for us during the setup and in real-time while we were there. If she couldn't, I still would have understood, but she managed to do it. Very satisfied with their service.

From the moment we started planning our trip with travel advisor Stella to the moment we returned to the airport, everything went smoothly, thanks to the enthusiasm and dedication of the NCT team. The hotel facilities were beautiful, and the staff were always very attentive and friendly. Our driver and guide, Andy and Frank, were very friendly and knowledgeable. Talking to them about anything related to China, whether it's history, politics, or culture, was always a pleasure. Stella made sure we were well-prepared, answered every question, sent very useful guides, and left no detail unaddressed in our planning. Highly recommend them!

It all started with a great plan made by our consultant Sally and me. They offered various options that I could customize according to my family’s preferences and schedule. We originally planned to take the trip in June 2022, but for some reasons at that time, we couldn’t make it. Nihao China Tour delayed the whole trip by a year and a half, and we finally completed our trip to Guilin, Chengdu, and Yunnan in December 2023. The guides were very knowledgeable, the pick-up was punctual, and the chosen hotel locations were very central.
