Postcards from China

Dear Ryan

Just I quick note to say that I loved the holiday. It was amazing, and I'm already planning the next trip with you.

Thanks to everyone who was part of showing me the best time in China. I can't rave about this trip enough, all the amazing things we've seen and done en route and the tang dynasty show was definitely my favourite night. I was really looking forward to this trip but it exceeded all my expectations including our excellent guide Eddie. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

In overall tour is great. We had a great time regardless the weather. Our tour guide Mandy was highly professional and very friendly. She made us feel really good and special. Her service was with high standard quality and always really helpful. Drivers were also very good and friendly. Many thanks to everything.

Good morning Ryan

It is with great pleasure that I am writing to tell you how pleased Richard and I were with the itinerary for our China trip.

From the first sight of Lilly and Hao at the Guilin airport until we stepped back on the plane in Lijiang one week later, we felt that we were treated so well to all the sights and sounds of the chosen areas. The hotels were very satisfactory and accommodating, Yangshou being the nicest. The Jian Nan Chun Hotel in Lijiang was lovely, in a beautiful setting and extremely accommodating to our needs.

All of the sights throughout the week were wonderful and how great it was to have someone helping us get from point A to point B as well as the knowledge to go along with the sights. Some of the days were so pleasurable from morning until night. We both felt very well taken care of and treated in a special manner. The lunches provided along with way were mostly good.

Our first guide, Lilly was excellent. From day 1 until we said goodbye at the airport, she was great! Her knowledge of the area and conversation was delightful. So our next guide had a hard act to follow. Elspeth in Lijiang is a lovely young woman who we enjoyed talking to and hearing about the area and China. However, she needs some 'seasoning' in her delivery but we did appreciate her honesty and repartee.

Of course, you didn't have any control over the weather (or did you?) which happened to be terrific most of the way.

Never having travelled in this fashion, we both felt that the money spent was worth it and as you already know, we have recommended "On The Go" to a family member Gerry Gringorten also visiting China next month.

Thanks again...keep up the good work.

Craig, just a brief note to say thank you for organising our tour of China. We had a great time and saw some very exciting sites.

The whole tour ran very smoothly. There were people to meet us every where we went and we were very effectively transported around the country. The guides were also very willing to change the itinery to suit our needs - we wanted to do more walking than was originally planned.
Thanks for your help

Hi

I just wanted to let you know how fantastic the Chinese New Year holiday was
that I undertook 22nd Dec - 2nd Jan. Words cannot describe what an awesome
experience the whole holiday was. I think the highlight was walking the
Great Wall on Christmas Day followed by the spectacular visit to Harbin Ice
Festival on New Years Eve.

I would definately look to book again with your company and am interested in
the Golden triangle and Goa trip for later in 2009.

With kind regards
