God! Till I came to China in person that I realized how outrageous the online reports about China were. Living in China is so convenient and safe. The travel plan customized for me is really great. Definitely worth it!
From America
When making the itinerary, they helped me find a hotel that was having a promotion. It was half the price of what I would have paid if I had booked it myself. It was simply an incredible deal. The entire itinerary was also planned really well. Chinese culture is so interesting, and it was a completely different experience.

Very good service and they prepared a elegant gift for us. As we have a kid together with us, they considered every detail for our convenience.

My Chinese colleagues highly recommended traveling to China. However, my husband and I were mainly worried about the language barrier. Fortunately, with the help, communication went smoothly throughout the entire trip. They coordinated directly between us and the drivers as well as the hotel staff. Everything went extremely well.
