5.00My husband and I are on our honeymoon in China, and we chose to take this tour with Wendy to make the most of our time and enjoy the scenery without any stress. Wendy was an outstanding guide—warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. Her English is excellent, and she made sure to take us to the best spots while also accommodating our requests. The parks are very large, so having someone guide us through them made the experience much more relaxed and enjoyable. She even took some wonderful photos of us! Thank you, Wendy, for being part of our honeymoon and making it even more special.

5.00Had the best experience possible! Our tour guide was Wendy and we did the Tianmen Mountains with her. She is very nice and knowledgeable and never made us feel rushed to anything. Highly recommend the tour, especially because it felt nice to just sit back and have someone lead and speak in our behalf.
Excellent. Very good service and perfect route

5.00Wendy was very pretty. He helped us with everything from clothing to food. He even helped us find a pharmacy. Zhanghiajie is spectacular and each landscape is different. On top of that it captures great photos. You can't compare landscapes. He speaks English very well so every detail was explained and gave us options how to continue if we feel tired or hungry. I highly recommend them. Wendy made the experience easier and more welcoming!
The main reason to travel to China know the mountain tianmen at night
