Our small group tour in Yunnan was absolutely perfect! From the ancient town of Lijiang to Shangri-La's Pudacuo National Park, every spot was breathtaking. Our guide, Ms. Li, was professional and knowledgeable—she not only explained the history and culture in detail but also took us to try authentic Naxi cuisine. The group members came from different countries, but we got along like a family. The most memorable part was hiking in Tiger Leaping Gorge—it was tiring but the view was totally worth it. The itinerary was well-paced with no forced shopping. If we visit China again, we will definitely choose the same company! Thank you for letting us experience the true charm of Yunnan.

I’ve long heard about Xinjiang’s vastness and grandeur, but I was worried about the large area and inconvenient transportation, so I chose this company’s Small Group service. Unexpectedly, it became the most unforgettable part of my China trip! Our small group had 9 people, with a comfortable business car and a guide named Alim who knows Xinjiang well. Alim is Kazakh; he not only speaks fluent Chinese but also introduces local culture in English, and is very friendly to us foreign tourists.​ The itinerary covered classic attractions such as Kanas Lake, Sayram Lake, and Nalati Grassland. In Kanas, Alim took us on a niche hiking route, where we saw blue lakes, golden birch forests, and snow-capped mountains in the distance—the scenery was comparable to Canada’s Rocky Mountains! He also arranged for us to stay in Kazakh yurts; in the evening, we ate pilaf and roasted buns with local herdsmen, listened to them play the dombra and sing folk songs. The lively and warm atmosphere made me feel the enthusiasm of the people of Xinjiang.​ What touched me most were the details: knowing I had mild altitude sickness, Alim prepared oxygen tanks in advance; every day before departure, he would check our luggage and remind us to bring sunscreen (Xinjiang’s UV rays are really strong); when passing by fruit stalls along the way, he would bargain for us, letting us eat the freshest Hami melons and grapes. There were no mandatory consumption throughout the trip, and Alim recommended only restaurants and experience projects that locals visit.​ After returning to Canada, I often look at the photos I took in Xinjiang, and every time I can’t help but sigh: “It’s so beautiful!” If I have the chance, I want to take my family to Xinjiang again, and I will definitely choose this company’s small group service—they not only took us to see the scenery but also let us step into Xinjiang’s culture and life.

The day trip to the Great Wall in Beijing was amazing! We chose Mutianyu, which was less crowded and more scenic than Badaling. Our guide, Mr. Wang, was humorous and spoke fluent English—he even helped us take lots of beautiful photos. The included农家菜 (farmhouse lunch) was delicious, especially the grilled fish and wild vegetables. Transportation was comfortable with hotel pick-up and drop-off, which saved us a lot of hassle. The only slight regret was that the time was a bit tight—wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended for those who want to avoid crowds and experience the原始风光 (原始风光) of the Great Wall!

China is a breathtaking country, rich in history, culture, and hospitality. The warmth of its people, the diversity of its cuisine, and the sheer beauty of its landscapes make for an unforgettable experience. From iconic landmarks to hidden gems, every destination was a feast for the senses. The tour itself was impeccably organized, ensuring a seamless and enriching journey. The guides were not only highly skilled professionals but also passionate storytellers, bringing each location to life with their knowledge and enthusiasm. Their expertise and attention to detail made the trip both enjoyable and insightful. Truly a world-class experience!

This Beijing city package was a gift for my parents, and it turned out to be the best choice! The package included 3 nights at a downtown hotel, tickets to the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, all transportation, and a private guide. The guide, Miss Zhang, was incredibly patient and kind. She looked after my parents throughout, adjusted the walking pace, and explained everything in detail. She even taught my parents how to order food in Chinese! The arranged vehicle was very comfortable, and the driver was always punctual. A Beijing duck dinner was also included, which my parents loved. This package removed all language and logistical barriers, allowing my parents to explore Beijing with ease and comfort. They haven't stopped raving about the trip since returning. Thank you so much!

Our customized Silk Road itinerary in Xinjiang exceeded expectations! The agency arranged visits to Turpan’s Grape Valley and Kashgar’s Old City based on our interests. Our guide, a local Uyghur, was hospitable and knowledgeable. The comfortable vehicle and skilled driver saved us time. At Kashgar’s bazaar, the guide helped us bargain for a beautiful carpet. Hotels blended modern amenities with local charm. Thank you for creating such a unique journey tailored to our preferences!

Definitively recommend Travel China Guide for any foreign traveler to China.

Our family had a blast exploring Guangxi’s stunning karsts, Xinjiang’s vast, colorful landscapes, and Xi’an’s ancient wonders. China’s so fun—every place feels like a new adventure! Lily made it perfect: patient with the kids, full of cool stories, and kept everything smooth. We laughed, marveled, and made memories to last. Thanks, Lily—you’re the best! This trip? Unbeatable.

Our small group tour in Zhangjiajie with only 6 people was incredible! The guide was extremely professional and took us on some lesser-known paths in the forest park, perfectly avoiding the crowded tour groups. At Tianzi Mountain, we saw the sea of clouds swirling around the peaks, it was like a fairy tale. The guide was also a skilled photographer and proactively took photos for each of us from the best angles. The included Bailong Elevator ticket saved us about two hours of queueing. The Tujia-style dinner in the evening was a fantastic local experience, sour, spicy, and delicious. Our group mates from the US and Canada became fast friends, the atmosphere was great. This small group tour truly offers an in-depth experience, highly recommended!
