What a wonderful tour trip I and my wife had in China. Thanks to Visitourchina, a professional Tour Agency that helped to plan and execute this trip for us. Our trip was customized by careful selection of the cities and what exactly to see in those cities. Guangzhou, Guilin and Beijing you were so amazing. Our memories cant forget that experience of walking on that terrifying but safe Gulong Canyon glass bridge, the Reed Flute Cave in Guilin left us mouth agape as it was the first to see such kind of huge and beautiful cave. The boat cruise in Li River and its wonderful mountainous scenery showed us how nature can be so beautiful. Beijing gave us a glimpse of China history and that was a mesmerizing moment for us. The Forbiden city, the Temple of Heaven and the famous Mutianyu Great wall all displayed the wonderful ancient masterpieces in architectural designs. Kudos to Visitourchina, your responses and actions to our inquiries and requests were so quick, the logistics were to the point. We recommend Visitourchina to everyone who is visiting China, you will not go wrong.

We had a great time. Thanks for everything! We did a two-day excursion with Lily in Guilin, starting with the Li River cruise, the bamboo canoe ride, and the second day we went up to the rice fields in the mountains: the experience was magnificent, the landscapes were beautiful, and the organization and coordination from both the agency and Lily was excellent: from the moment we arrived in Guilin, they warmly welcomed us at the airport and helped us organize everything, including some hotel details such as breakfast and check-in. Lily knows a lot, making our stay and knowledge of the place much easier and more pleasant, and the walks are very complete, organizing all the details, explaining local customs and stories, always accompanied and very well informed. 100% recommendable

MY DEAR Lisa, VISIT OUR CHINA, Thank you immensely for providing Mona as my tour guide. It was truly an unforgettable experience!!!!!!! Her knowledge and passion for the Guilin city were truly awe-inspiring and I enjoyed every minute of it. I learned so much and was amused at each every stop on the tour exploring classical Guilin. My exceptional memory was when she arranged for me to travel to Yangshuo through Li River. Her enthusiasm for this long but an extremely beautiful scenic travel through the river by a cruise and its breathtaking picturesque scenes were absolutely stunning and I really amused getting to learn her command on the topic. I also really appreciate all the time she spent walking me around Yangshuo and showing me it’s beautiful landscape Thank you again, and if I ever get the chance to come back to Guilin. I will certainly be calling on you for another tour !!!!!!! Very sincerely your, S. K. Humayun

I did a solo trip to Huangshan mountain near Shanghai and I cannot recommend this company enough! Lisa from Visit Our China was very helpful and she offered a customized experience based on what I needed which included my private tour, helping to book accommodation and hotel pick up and drop off from the train station. I was a little nervous to travel alone here, but she took care of everything and answered every question I had. Would highly recommend!
