We had a wonderful time in Guilin - all thanks to Riley Guo who organised this tour. I have to say it was a memorable tour as it was well organised and she had chosen the best local guide and a driver for us. There was excellent email communication with Riley. She was very patient as we had to alter our travel plans a few times. she gave us the best quote for the trip (compared with the quote from another leading tour company for the same itinerary). she was in touch via email throughout. she was very polite and very professional throughout.

Our Local guide Steve and driver Mr Young were excellent.Steve was very knowledgeable, polite and spoke very good English (It was a priority). our request for vegetarian food was well catered (had excellent local vegetarian food). Steve was very professional and helpful. He was making sure that we were comfortable throughout our trip. Our flight had got cancelled/rearranged/delayed- we came to know only when Steve checked it the previous evening to plan what time to drop us off to the airport. He immediately contacted his management team and the operator and got correct flight info. He altered the timings for the next day so that we didn't have to spend too much time at the airport.

Reasons for giving 5 stars: this tour was arranged by us via the internet. I was sceptical about the service we may get. we had an excellent local guide, Driver, very good vehicle, well-organised tour.

Before doing Guilin tour (only our family) we did 10 day china tour ( with friends - a group of 10- the tour was organised by a travel agent with a different tour operator). The tour wasn't well organised, vehicles stank of cigarette. we struggled to get vegetarian food. Not all the local guides were good. we still had a good time as we were with friends and enjoyed every bit of China that we visited.

Overall: We had a wonderful time in China. amazing country with wonderful scenery and history. People are very hospitable. I would definitely recommend China Discovery/Riley and Steve.

    The distinctive black and white animal is a national treasure in China and one of the rarest, most endangered bears in the world. A one-on-one encounter with a giant panda is a bucket list highlight and a must-do when you are in China. The time I spent witnessing such human dedication is truly eye-opening...
