Overall Satisfaction:

"": Dear James,

Hilda and I would like to express our overall satisfaction as concerns our recent four days’ trip in Beijing as arranged by you and your colleagues at China Travel Depot.

Our tour guide, frank, and the driver, Mr. li, each did a very good job. They both showed kindness and consideration in helping Hilda walk up and down the difficult pathways of Beijing. Frank's knowledge of Beijing was impressive and we were particularly pleased at the time spent at the Tiananmen Square and the Olympic Park in Beijing.

We also enjoyed the rickshaw ride through the Hutongs. The stop at the home of one of the resident families was one of the highlights of our trip.

Thank you once again, for your efforts in arranging our tour.

Sincerely,

Martin Fried

"": Hello James,

I would be happy to comment on our experience with China Travel Depot.

I thought your tour organization was fantastic! Everything was top-notch from start to finish. From the polite and informative email exchanges, to the personal phone call the day before the tour from our guide, to the wonderful and extremely high value content of the tour itself, to our wonderful and personable guide, to the professional driver, and the nice lunch at a fine restaurant.

Everything was perfect! I would highly recommend China Travel depot to anyone looking for a safe, reputable, and cost-effective tour!

I like to thank you again for everything!

Beast regards,

Overall Satisfaction:

"": China Travel depot,
Both the wife and I thought the tour was all that we expected. We feel that the value was over and above the price.

Guide Michael and the driver did a great job of getting us to our stops with a good background on those sights that were along the trip.

What stands out with us was the fact that Michael considered our pace and worked with us to receive the maximum amount of tour visit as we could handle. We are both over 70 years in age and have avoided tours up to this time because the guides were either trying to accomplish a set itinerary or they did not evaluate the pace of and went to slow.

Michael was a great choice for guide. His knowledge and background on history and events was well worth the price. We had little expectation to start with but wish we had several more days that we could visit other sites in China as long as Michael was our guide.

The driver did an excellent job of being at the right time and place to pick us up; car was always ready, clean, and cool. We were provided water and there was no negative impact from driver that we witnessed with the frustrations of Beijing traffic.

The choice of restaurant and meal was excellent. The tour service gave us confidence to use your service the next available time we have to explore China. We are in China 3 - 4 times a year working as consultants to the World Bank. This was the first time in Beijing and we had four days to explore. I had taken photos that reflect our satisfaction with your service.

Thank you very much.
