Bruce's Feedback on 11-Day China Tour

I would particularly like to emphasise the quality of the guides I had in Xi’an and Beijing. As I said below, I rate them among the very best of the guides I have had, anywhere in the world, over the last 35 years. I would like to formally recognise my gratitude to them for making my visit just that much better than it otherwise would have been and hope that there is some way that their quality can be recognised by China Highlights.

Dear Simon,

The trip went very well, with no major problems and any minor ones sorted out instantly. The guides were all excellent and showed great care. For instance, the guide at Yichang went to special trouble to let my bus driver know where I was going and he, in turn, looked out for me at intermediate stops and toilet breaks during the journey. What could have been a very frightening experience was actually pleasant.

All the guides were waiting for me, clearly marked, so arrivals were worry-free. That was particularly important at the dark, back-street bus terminal in Wuhan.

The itinerary you developed for me was everything I wanted and well-paced. I was soaking up information at a huge rate, so that I really felt I was working hard, but I wanted to acquire a sense of China’s history and present, so that was all good as far as I was concerned.

Overall summary: my family wants  to make China their next overseas family holiday destination. I’m not sure precisely when that will be, but we will be back seeking your assistance in the not too distant future (12-18 months away, perhaps) to organise that.

Kind regards,

Bruce
