Hello. I want to thank Agate travel and the local Sri Lanka and Bangladesh travel agencies for a memorable and wonderful trip. You are all very professional companies. Everything exceeded my expectations and was reasonably priced. The food was delicious, the hotels were top notch, the guides and drivers were helpful, patient and friendly. I never felt unsafe as an obvious foreign traveller in either country and never had any food problems.

The only bad thing about my trip was it was too short.

I hope to travel with Agate travels in the future.

We have toured with high-end tour companies such as Luxury Gold. I was extremely impressed with TravelChinaGuide, whom I consider to be among the very best! I felt like our tour of China was their highest priority. Wendy was in constant contact with us, our tour guides, and our transfers, making sure everything went perfectly. Each city had a highly professional, memorable local travel guide, generally with 10 to 15 years of experience. They made sure we had a special time seeing the highlights of each of the cities we visited with detailed history and explanations. Their English was excellent. Each transfer was done door to door, with very clear, detailed instructions, in a very modern, luxurious car or SUV. When we wanted to add to our tour outside of what was offered, it was handled quickly and efficiently. We are so thankful to TravelChinaGuide and Wendy for making our tour such an enjoyable adventure.
Tour: Private Tour: 16 Days Luxury China Tour to Beijing - Xi'an - Guilin - Chengdu - Chongqing - Yangtze River Cruise - Yichang - Shanghai

This was the perfect tour for visiting Beijing's highlights as a solo traveller.
Tom, my guide, was fantastic. Always super attentive and knows every single detail and question I asked him about the history of the places we visited.

Would totally recommend Travel China Guide when in China. Worth every penny

Had a 2 day-long tour with my mom visiting Shanghai and Hangzhou,after that she continued alone towards Suzhou for another 2 days.
We had a great time with private guides we were given. They were all friendly and could give to us lots of useful information as well as a lot of enthusiasm regarding the places we were visiting. Choice of restaurants were all good and serving really delicious food. I could also get instant updates from Ashley, my travel consultant, when i wanted to modify some points of our program
Hotels were all of a good level and quality.
Finally,booking process was easy as Ashley answered to my emails within hours and could quickly insert/remove from program places we wanted to see always meeting my requests.

Excellent organisation. Prompt reply to our many requests. Nicole was excellent with frequent check-in before end during the trip. Highly recommended

Booked a private driver with guide for 3 days to take us out of Guangzhou to BaiShuiZhai Scenic area and Gulong Glass Bridge.

Arranging the tour through email was simple and Emily our travel consultant was very responsive, friendly and clear on the tour instructions, fees and payments.

The tour itself was good. Our English speaking guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The bus for 8 of us was very clean, refurbished and comfortable.

Would definitely use this platform to book future tours in China 👍

It is now some time since I had the good fortune to visit your lovely country. I would love to repeat the tour of course but there are other places to see as I have already indicated. My next one will be Macchu Piccu, hopefully in a few months. I certainly will be asking you for more details nearer the time.

Meanwhile I would like to say, again, how refreshing it was to have Kevin and Celine as my guides in Beijing and Xian. I am still in touch with them and hope that one day we may meet again, either there or here!

I know that Christmas is not a major celebration in China but the meaning of fellowship between all people should be celebrated all year round.

From all here in Brazil, and especially me, it is my sincere hope that the future will be wonderful for us all. Roland

The guide was very helpful and informative during the entire tour, from the journey to the respective attractions. The ride was smooth.

We planned on a very relaxing trip in China, starting off in Beijing, then Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, and finally Guangzhou. The trip was custom designed with our destination and travel arrangement preferences (part high speed train, part flight). The trip was very well organized for me and my wife, with the help of very friendly and competent local guides who speaks both English and Putonghua. We also enjoyed the flexibility as we walked past the Liuli China Museum (Glass art) in Shanghai, and decided to visit the place (well worth the extra entrance fee). They accommodated the plan change without hesitation (our driver has to figure out how he would pick us up afterwards :-).

Overall the trip unfolded as we anticipated and we made friends with the local guides. I am planning on our next trip in 2024 to Xinjiang with TravelChinaGuide.
