My wife and I have an annual holiday every April. This year, we want to go to see Xian and Chengdu in China. Find a couple of China travel agencies from Google. Finally have Kelly from Joy Travel (China Xian Tour) to custom make our 10 days China holiday. Hotels at all locations are good, drivers are courteous and professional. All attractions tickets are brought as plan. I have a perfect holiday with my wife. We will ask Joy Travel to arrange our trip to China on next year.

Great experience of China Great Wall tour! Started in the early morning and found an almost empty stretch of the wall once a busier part. Enjoyed an ice cold beer after one hour of hiking up and down the Great Wall, what a wonderful memory! Tour booking experience was super smooth, guide and driver were full on time supporting us and very friendly! Can only recommend China Xian Tour!

It was a great experience engaging China Xian Tour for our family trip to Yunnan. One of the tour guide in Shangri La showed his expertise and experience in taking care of us and the children. The driver was friendly and smiling throughout the trip. Hotels in Dali and Lijiang were also a great experience with excellent service. We had a great trip.
