Agency helped plan an itinerary to Jiuzhaigou, Zhangjiajie and Huangshan in mid to end sep 2024. Rachel is efficient and prompt in addressing queries and concerns. Guides are helpful and kind, patient, efficient and go the extra mile to assist to make the tour meaningful sweet and memorable. The guides are very professional and knowledgeable too. Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to plan a trip to these beautiful places in China. Just to add, it would be good to provide screenshot of High Speed Train stations... as the names of station are not visible at the train station.. So that the journey can be more visible and smooth. Nonetheless, overall 5 star services, well done all !! Really appreciate it :)

We had the best time at Chengdu and Jiuzhaigou! The organising stage with Rachel was super smooth and easy. She was helpful with information and willing to make changes to tailor to what we wanted. The guides and drivers were all efficient, knowledgeable and had a decent grasp of English. Everything went well with no hiccups, and we really had a great time.
