Hello Kelly,
Overall we had a lovely holiday in China, and we were very pleased with the way you handled the booking.
Our pickup from Beijing airport was appreciated ...even though we were VERY late in because of delays at Guangzhou, our driver was there waiting for us and we spoke to Linda whilst in the car which was reassuring at 3am in the morning! She was an extremely friendly and knowledgeable guide.
The rickshaw ride was a highlight visiting the Hutongs.
It was also extremely nice to meet you personally in Xian. We loved the home visit...and the bike ride along the city wall. We felt more than an hour at the markets would have been good, but that's just our thoughts.
Check in at Guilin was VERY SLOW, but a superb location! I loved having the markets and so many shops/restaurants to look at. The caves were great, unfortunately the bus we had in Guilin was not very good....small and uncomfortable, especially with all our luggage piled up in there with us!
Our guide, Bella in Chongqing was amazing and very knowledgeable... but she was the only guide who didn't give us an appraisal form to submit.
The Yangtze cruise was lovely, except for having to walk so far to board the ship....
Shanghai guide Celina was very nice, the museum visit was the best museum on the tour. I also really enjoyed the visit to the silk factory.. (I purchased 2 silk pillows and love them!!)
I thought all the hotels were very good, probably the Pullman in Shanghai was the best (very modern and great breakfast options...but check in here was also very slow) It was nice to have some rooms with baths, as i appreciated a soak after a full day out sightseeing!!
Happy hour in Beijing was great also!!!
Overall we enjoyed our holiday, and saw quite a bit of China. It is very different for us coming from a city of 1 million people to be immersed in such big cities, but was good for us to experience. If ever you arrange a small group tour to Adelaide, AUSTRALIA and are interested in a home visit for your group get in touch with me!! Maybe they would enjoy it as much as I did in your country!!!
Thank you once again Kelly.
Kind regards
Debbie
