Tour Guide Reviews

Had the time of my life all thanks to Coco. I don't use a lot of guides when traveling the world, but have used enough to know a great one from a good one. Coco is a great guide. She is not only knowledgeable and professional, but also funny, engaging, warm and genuinely interested in you. Coco seems to learn as much from you as you do from her and that is refreshing. The trip had all the bells and whistles, hitting all the major sites over three very full days. However it was the little things that made the difference. Things like making sure my pick up was still there even if my flight was over an hour late. Taking public transport all over the city like a native, eating lunch in local restaurants (where I'm the only westerner in the place), not taking me to tourist shopping stores, and treating my money was as if it were her own. She made sure I always had pictures taken and the best spots for that perfect shot. We were always rushing around, timing the sites just right, but for some reason it never seemed like we were in a hurry. If I ever come back to Beijing, I can tell you for certain who I will be using as a guide. Thank you Coco.  

Melody is wonderful! She is very friendly and knowledgeable. She knows everything about Shanghai! She helped us book the hotel and flight tickets, bargain with the vendors in souvenir shops, find tasty Halal restaurants, showed us some less crowded but very lovely places, and gave a lot of useful travel tips... My husband and me had very good time in Shanghai with Melody. I would highly recommend her!

My wife and I went on a 5-day tour of the Cultural Triangle with Weera at the start of April. His son also joined as part of his apprenticeship. I can wholeheartedly recommend Weera as a driver and guide. As well as being a knowledgable guide and proficient driver, he is respectful, reliable, punctual and a man of integriry, manners and good character. He was always happy to answer our questions and told us many interesting things about the country, its historical sites and Buddhism along the way.

Weera always made great choices for lunch. We also stayed in his recommendation for accomodation in 2 of our 4 nights and found it to be clean, safe and reasonably priced with delicious food. He was also very happy tailoring the tour I originally agreed with him to include an elephant safari and a trip to see the Aukana Buddha and his flexibility was appreciated.

I have no hesitation in recommending Weera to others and will be doing so to friends and family looking to visit Sri Lanka in the next 12 months.

Would like to express my warmest thanks to RuralChina for organizing all travel arrangements for my Yunnan trip. I took lots of nice pictures on my trip around Dali, Lijiang and Shangri-la. Both Dali and Lijiang guides were great, thank you guys for the pleasant journey and do stay in touch. Bill Morgan
