Testimonials

Dear China Holidays:

My wife & I safely returned home from our trip to Australia & China.
We enjoyed our time in China very much and compliment you that all the arrangements worked well.
Our guide in Beijing, Nikki, was outstanding in her knowledge, her friendly manner and her care for our well-being. It was impressive to see so much in the time available. .......

I don't understand why China Holiday guests (from US) must have international travel insurance. It is something I never purchase. Is this just flight insurance? If so, any recommendations on where to purchase?

Traveler

Hi I am from Eritrea & I do have a plan to visit China for 10-15 days in May 2011. I want to know how much money do I need for this trip to stay in China.

Thank you,

Gorge and Jean

We have come back from a tailor made China Highlights Tour. It is a wonderful trip. From the first day that I sent enquiry letter till the last day of tour, I felt their working staff and guides very professional. Their knowledge about China is profound and it was a very warm feeling that there always are someone looking after you when being afar from home!!

P Miller

I liked Beijing so much. I came to Beijing one day earlier than the rest of the group and spending the day in Houhai area. It was so enjoyable walking through Hutongs and watching the traditional corner of modern Beijing. People are so nice and patient when I asked them about the metro stations and other information. Besides, Beijing is a very tidy city, much cleaner than most western cities I have been to.

Traveler

I have just come back from the trip. Yangshuo is fantastic. I liked the beautiful countryside there and to see the fisherman and cormorants going fishing

Simone

We went to Tang Dynasty show in Xian which is at the same location as the Dumpling Banquet. Very nice show and we really enjoyed it.

Traveler
How is the dumpling banquet? I don't think i will like dumplings.
CH
Xi`an Dumpling Banquet has brought forth lots of new ideas in its color, fragrance, taste and style; and the ancient culture is added in the meantime. Thus, the dumpling is no longer a simple flour food. People change the tradition of using pork, beef, mutton and vegetable as its filling, chicken, duck, fish, pork, meat, egg, delicacies from land and sea and fresh vegetable, etc, in a word, include steaming, frying, toasting, etc. They add many tastes such as sour, sweet, peppery, etc. They make out various pretty and lovely styles such as flower, bird, grass, fish, ect. very artistic. Besides the traditional style of a new moon like. People who taste Xi`an Dumpling Banquet have had a deep happy memory. This is not only because its elegant shapes and delicious taste, but also because it includes plentiful cultural intension.
Note: Remember, you can change this itinerary to the way you want or to extend this tour to visit other Chinese cities or even neighboring countries, please do contact us, we will be happy to arrange it for you!
