I engaged Sony for a two week purchasing trip for construction materials. He was excellent. Strong in English, good industry contacts, highly professional. He arranged all of the goods for export. All goods arrived in perfect condition. Sony is honest, hard working, and pleasant to be around. I strongly recommend him at a guide, translator, purchasing/logistics agent.

My wife and I found ourselves in the city for 2 unexpected days. We scrambled for a hotel, but we don't know the city (as we arrived from Guangzhou, where we frequently visit) and we didn't have a translator or guide with us since we were due to return home.
I found the Synotrip website, and started contacting guides in a hurry - I chose Michael, he made himself available straight away. He was quick to respond, an he is an excellent communicator, he speaks good English and I could feel the good chemistry.
Upon meeting him in person, I felt confident that these 2 unexpected days will be a positive experience. Michael was an excellent tour guide, he showed me and my wife the city, and told us a lot about life in Shenzhen. He showed us popular shopping sites, and helped us choose good restaurants. His company was pleasant, and his personality is outgoing, and he has a sharp mind.
I would highly recommend Michael for touring in Shenzhen, and it is also my impression that he is hardworking and will be an excellent facilitator in business, although during this particular trip we did not use his business skills. Read lessNovember 1, 2019

This is my second time with Nature during the history-record pandemic period since I am trapped in China months in Shanghai. After the restrictions and limitations become loose, I began my journey to Huizhou and Huangshan area to dig out much more.

After the restrictions and limitations become loose, I began my journey to Huizhou and Huangshan area to dig out much more. Since there is few travelers recently, I was completely immersed my Nature's profound cultural stories and learned a lot about Chinese ancient society and its special history. His humor, dynamics and full of vitality help me walk out of haze of COVID-19. Highly recommend Nature HSU as your personal cultural ambassador and enjoy every inch of that land.

His profile suggests that he's a hiking guide but Nature is soooo much more!!Nature was our brother, business assistant, Tour guide and our friend.From the time of my first email to our numerous chats over WeChat, I felt very good about working with nature. He was very accessible, helpful and responsive. After actually working with Nature, I must say he totally EXCEEDED my expectation of what and who a tour guide/ business assistant should be.
I expected:To be picked up from the airport and dropped off to some hotel/ motel.
Translated whatever was asked
Taken to the factories I provided
End of trip
But Instead what I got was: A warm bubbly person waiting, waving and smiling at my reception at the airport. This made us feel very welcomed and comfortable.
A brother who showed us how to dine with the locals. He paid very close attention to our diet & my husband's allergies
A brother who brought us snacks and water to help us on our long drives
A brother who used his cash/ cards to pay for stuff for us when our cards didn't work
Business assistant to help us check into our train plus negotiated an upgrade to our seats
Business assistant to help with my travel plans before traveling to China. He also helped me with my plans in the other parts of China
Business assistant to plan my factory visits & full itinerary to ensure we made the most of our time
Business assistant to help us Check-in to our hotels and ensure our special requests were handled
A friend who gave us unbiased opinion/ observation after each factory visit
A friend who accompanied us to the mall and endured the fitting room delays.... hehehehe
A tour guide that gave us a lot of China's history and pointed out interesting facts about the different parts of China
Nature was very organized and detailed oriented. He took the time to learn about our country before our visit. In this way, he was able to relate to us and our culture. He also researched our type of business so that he was able to understand our needs in order to be able to help us effectively communicate them at meetings.
We are confident that Nature can be our "China Man" on the ground as he understands exactly what we need. He pays attention to the details and speaks out if anything seems not in order.
My husband is naturally very reserved and quiet, while Im free- spirit and very trusting. Nature helped to break those walls down and actually got my husband to open up in conversations.
If you are looking to have your best experience in China- you should hire nature. His English is perfect, He is well spoken and very knowledgeable on many different areas. I am sure he will exceed your expectations. We plan to hire him for our other China visits and take him with us to other cities... he is definitely worth it. He can not be compared to others in his profession as the ones we've dealt with appear to only do the bare minimum.... NATURE GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND.
Choose Nature and you're in the best hands!! He is the BEST. Read lessJune 8, 2018

Rosey was a wonderful tour guide who greatly improved my experience in and around Lijiang.

She knows the trails around Tiger Leaping Gorge quite well, and I particularly enjoyed the hike she took me on beginning from her father's hostel and going down into the middle gorge. She was extremely prompt in answering emails and WeChat questions about other aspects of my trip, giving me suggestions on good local restaurants and other cool places I could check out on my own. If you're going to the Lijiang or Shangri-la area, Rosey is an excellent choice! Read lessMay 27, 2021

I spent 6 days in the Lijiang / Shangri-la area with Rosey as my guide.

I have lived in China for just over 7 years and, as an amateur photographer and nature lover, I wanted to see part of Yunnan before going back to the USA this next week. Tiger Leaping Gorge hike and Shangri-la were my primary goals.
The weather was mixed with it raining some of almost every day. Tiger-Leaping Gorge is not a hike for the timid nor the over confident person. You need to be an experienced hiker who respects the challenges.
The first hour I was gasping for breath in the thinner air as we climbed. Later my body adjusted.
If you enjoy hiking, you should consider a hiking vacation in Yunnan. It will be more difficult but rewarding. Even in rainy weather, the views can be stunning.
If you want to visit and want a local guide, I recommend Rosey -a native of Tiger-Leaping Gorge who now operates from Lijiang. Read lessOctober 23, 2020

I booked Jessica to help me visit a few markets and then some general sightseeing. She was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be around. Very good English skills.
I needed some help a few days later and even with short notice, Jessica was able to help me out!
I would highly recommend her!November 9, 2019
