Testimonials from Switzerland

Liebe Lissy
Da wir anschliessend an die Chinareise noch Badeferien machten, kann ich Ihren Brief erst heute beantworten. Hoffentlich geht es Ihnen gut. Vorab m?chten wir Ihnen noch danken für die sehr gut organisierte Chinareise, die uns ausserordentlich gut gefallen hat.

Eigentlich war das meiste sehr beeindruckend. Vor allem haben uns die Han Gr?ber und die Terracotta Armee beeindruckt. Aber auch der Himmelstempel in Beijing war sehr beeindruckend. Die Zugfahrt von Beijing nach Xian war tadellos.

Max in Peking hat uns durch seine Sprachkenntnisse sehr beeindruckt. Aber in Chongqing waren wir auch sehr beeindruckt von unserem Reiseleiter, der uns in so kurzer Aufenthaltszeit so viel zeigen konnte: Tierpark mit Pandab?ren, ein Museum mit alten Chinam?beln, Vermittlung eines Eindruckes der riesigen Stadt….wie er für uns eincheckte, und wir das Museum fertig besichtigen konnten.

Ganz allgemein gesagt, waren alle Führer sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und konnten viele Fragen ...more

Dear Candy,

It's now a week since we are back home from our China trip. And at the end we can tell you that everything went smooth, we stayed healthy during all the time in China and we didn't have to change our itinerary at all. All reservations have been done according to our wishes and the tickets were ready at the time needed. Let me go through your questionnaire in short:

The Most memorable attractions: Li River Cruise / Yangtse River Cruise ,Terracotta Army in Xi'an and Shanghai. We only had a tour guide for transfers in Chongqing and Yichang. All went perfectly well.

Hotel and Meals: All hotel arrangements we have done by ourselves. We were happy that we stayed in hotels like Sheraton, Novotel and Four Points by Sheraton. We know the chinese food and we like it. But we had to learn that the local chinese food is sometimes a bit strange for non-chinese. The food on President 2 was prepared also for western taste and we enjoyed it. ...more

Dear Karen
Just wanted to thank you again for your super organization and the chance to meet you in person.  Michael did a great job for us and we enjoyed our visit to Guilin and Yangshuo.  FYI -- when I filled in the evaluation form, I only used the 5 score to show the best of the trip.  Overall, the trip was excellent and I hope that the ratings are not misunderstood.

I'll come back to you on the arrangements for Chengdu.

Have a great week and take care,

Butch

Dear Karen,
I very much enjoyed Zhangjiajie. I had seen pictures of this National Park 3-4 years ago when visiting a fair for tourism in Zurich and the CNTO (Chinese National Tourist Office) had a booth with brochures on different places to visit. I was very impressed by the beauty of Western Hunan province and Zhangjiajie and the park itself was quite spectacular. The only thing that probably wasn't perfect was the weather as it's the rainy season, but we were lucky to have 3 days that were dry but somewhat cloudy.

I guess living in China, I also appreciate the chance to experience the local culture. My son and I walked through the city and only saw 2 Western visitors the whole time we were there. I guess the only outside folks that have discovered Zhangjiajie are the Koreans as there were many signs in Chinese and Korean. The tough part is that English is not very widely spoken. I'm trying to improve my Chinese and enjoyed the chance to try my limited ability in the restaurants -- very ...more
