Hi Wing,

Thank you. The pictures will be really helpful. We are thinking of maybe doing 1 day guided tour or Chongqing a couple of days after that. Can you send me some info about guided days tours around Chongqing? Either links or brochures are good.

Hi Dear April,

Thank you for following up with us. Crystal and I had a great time on the trip. The trips you helped plan and booked for us went really well as planned.

The tour guide David and Sally are both very friendly and knowledgeable about the tour sites. The Chongqing Metropolitan Hyatt hotel is at a very nice location, walking distance to the Hongya Cave. We enjoyed the great night view of the cave, river and Chongqing. Crystal even did customized photo shoots.

The cruise ship Century Oasis is very nice as well, including nice room, delicious food, spa, top deck and their staff are very friendly and attentive to the guests. The off shore attraction tours are well organized, and we joined the English group. Crystal is amazed at the Feng Yan San Guo Show, very much interested in the Chinese culture. We enjoyed the great views along the river, and got lucky in seeing the water discharge of the three Gorges Dan. Overall we had a wonderful tour and cruise! We really appreciate your great service, excellent communication and very attentive to our needs.

Hi Wonder,

Everything went well and the staff was very helpful! Maybe the lunch and dinner were a bit crowded, so we had to upgrade to a VIP restaurant and then it was ok. We were not used to travel in a group when go to sightseeing but at the end it was fun. We were very satisfied with the cruise it was clean and new and strictly non smoking! By the way, we are leaving China for good in a couple weeks, since our 4 years contract has come to an end! We want to THANK YOU for organizing and taking care of our many memories trips in China, we REALLY appreciate!

Oh congratulations then Jack!

Yangtze River Cruise could be better if the weather was great. We love our room though however should improve on sound proofing the room. Guide Betty for White Emperor City spoke excellent English. We were disappointed with the dual language guide for Three Gorges Dam Project. He spoke Mandarin most of the time and we could barely understand!

Hi Jack,

Sorry for this late reply. I had a very busy day today running errands here and there, so many things to attend to after my return from China!

The Dazu tour was great! David was a great English speaking guide and he took care to go through with us the history of Dazu Rock & The Beishan Carvings. He was very knowledgeable, nice and friendly. Then he took us to a nearby Restaurant for our lunch, the food was good and the price was reasonable. Unfortunately we couldn't converse much with the driver as he can't speak english and our Chinese was quite limited but he was very pleasant and nice. The car was nice, clean and comfortable. All in all, we had a great day!

Oh, we enjoyed the Yangtze Cruise too ... there were a lot of activities to do on board if we chose not to join in the excursions. 4 days 3 nights just flew by so fast, which meant, we had a great time. The Officers and Staff on board the cruise were very welcoming, friendly and helpful, which made our stay very nice and comfortable.

The transfer from Yichang Three Gorges Dam Centre to Yichang East Railway Station went smoothly and without any problem. With the help of the Cruise Manager Allan and Vivian from your side, we were able to finalise the final details of the transfer. We arrived at the Yichang East Railway Station at about 13:30, with plenty of time to spare before our train left for Chongqing at 14:45.

As for the train tickets, thank you very much for your patience and your time in getting us the train tickets back to Chongqing on the 30 April, at no extra costs. It was a very great relief when we heard that!

All in all, we were very happy with your services! Both you and Jason were very professional and were there to help us with our itinerary along the way and everything went well as planned. I would definitely be in touch again when I plan my next trip to China.

Thank you again and may you have a great day!

Hi Tracey,

I have been well and on a cruise in Japan.

The tour in China was superb, I enjoyed each and every moment, all of the guides were great and helped me with the trains. Thank goodness I had your contact those couple of times I or the guide was in the wrong spot for pick up! But that’s part of the adventure.

I would have like to have had more time or a short trip in Shanghai at the end just to see the highlights like the Bund.

I was disappointed with the pandas in Chengdu as I thought they were in the wild or semi wild and not in the zoo, however that is my fault for not asking the question before hand or doing more research.

Thanks so much h for looking after me while I was in China, I felt very safe, secure and will come back again.

Dear Mr. Leo Li,

Thank you for arranging our wonderful China Discovery tour.

China is Amazing!.. It's a living legacy of the ancient, old, new and ultra-modern. Your english speaking guides always arrived at the right place and time and helped us understand the local sites, and your drivers expertly navigated the crazy traffic and toured us around safely.

From Beijing to Shanghai and everywhere in between, rickshaws on cobblestone roads to high-speed trains on elevated rails, China is full of cultural contrasts and lovely people.

Thanks for making our China vacation possible.

We appreciate you and your team’s support.

Dear Wing Zeng,

My family and I have now arrived safely back at home in Bangkok. We had a wonderful time on the cruise, and we would like to thank you very much for assisting us on the whole process, from booking the cabins to arranging transportation from Jingzhou to Maoping port. We are very impressed with your service.

As for your questions, here is my response:

1A: Wing Zeng always responds to our emails very promptly. At the beginning when I planned to book the cruise, Wing Zeng has been very patient to respond to all my questions about the cruise itinerary and the cabin types. I am very happy with her service.

2A: With Wing Zeng's help, our tour arrangements were very smooth. Our family travel with one senior and one small child, so we were very careful about transportation to and from the port. On the day of embarkation, Wing Zeng helped us book a van transfer directly from our hotel in Jingzhou to the port, which made the embarkation process very smooth and enjoyable.

3A: Definitely. I highly recommend your service to anyone who wants to take the Yangtze cruises.

4A: I'm very satisfied with your service. Our travel consultant is very helpful and professional.

5A: It would be nice if you could give a little warning that the water level in Chongqing might be too low around this time of year. Originally, our cruise was scheduled to end at Chongqing Chaotianmen port. But because of the low water level, we had to disembark somewhere else and took a 2-hour drive to Chaotianmen. The cruise arranges the transfer smoothly and it worked out fine in the end. But if this is something that happens usually around this time of year, it would be nice to be given a little warning beforehand.
