Tour Guide : Lily - Guilin
Lily – my personal Thank You for the lovely reception that we received upon our late arrival in Guilin at 11.00 pm and arranging for our rooms to be cooled before reaching our accommodations at the Sheraton Hotel. This gesture was thoughtful, considerate and most welcomed. I wish to express my appreciation that she ensured that the minutest details were also taken care of, resulting in our visit in Guilin to be lovely, pleasant, most enjoyable and memorable. I especially want to thank Lily for supporting me, and speaking on my behalf to the authorities as there was a perceived recorded error of the expiry date that conflicted with my new passport. Her professionalism, her ‘common sense’ approach to the said misunderstanding, her calm demeanour, her quiet perseverance in explanations to the authorities diffusing the situation, gave me the comfort of knowing that the matter would be resolved amicably. Her composure in handling the problem not only assured me, but that calmness exuded itself to me and at no moment did I feel alone, abandoned nor anxious. I was totally confident in her ability to settle the issue. Further, I wish to acknowledge and compliment Lily for recommending and arranging the ‘Impression' show by Sanjie Liu. The show was definitely a show stopper and, in my humble opinion, should be one the visits that Guilin has to offer. Lily is a total credit to the travel agency - Travel China Guide, her professionalism is of the highest quality, setting a high bar for integrity and competency!
Response from the operator: Dear Doris T, we greatly appreciate you taking time to share your experience again with us! We are so glad to see everything of your Guilin trip was smooth and enjoyable. Your satisfaction is what we strive for. We look forward to serving you on your next vacation. Best regards from TravelChinaGuide Tours.

Great 10-day Small Group Tour!
My family and I recently completed a 10-day small group tour with Travel China Guide, and the experience exceeded our expectations. From the very start, communication was smooth, with all our questions answered promptly. The tour was well organized, and the bus provided was always roomy and clean. The itinerary was packed with sights, giving great value for those wanting to see as much as possible, though we felt a few stops could have been skipped for more relaxed mornings or earlier finishes. Now, onto the standout tour guide! Samantha was an absolute joy. She was warm, personable, and made everyone feel at ease throughout our time in Guilin. Her friendly nature created a relaxed atmosphere, and she was always ready to chat and share stories about local life. Samantha was flexible and ensured that all aspects of the itinerary were well executed.
Response from the operator: Dear Michael N, thank you so much for your detailed post! We are so delighted to see your trip in China was memorable. Our travel experts know very well of the best routes for perfect experience. Thank you for trusting us. We look forward to traveling with you soon. Best regards from TravelChinaGuide Tours.

Awesome experience !!
From start to finish, this was an excellent tour. Emily, who helped coordinate all of our plans was extremely helpful and responsive to our many questions. One we arrived all of our guides, Candy, Celine, Rachel and Susan were very knowledgeable and made us feel very welcome. I highly recommend to anyone considering a trip to this beautiful country to engage the services of Travel China Guide.
Response from the operator: Dear Allan R, thank you for sharing your wonderful travel memories in Guilin with us. How delightful that you gave us the opportunity to serve you. We look forward to your next trip. Best regards.

I was completely amazed by how well the travel consultant, Emily, and the tour guides took great care of us!
I just spent twelve terrific days in China [Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin, and Shanghai]. Wow! Inasmuch as I never had traveled outside of the US, I was adamant about joining a tour. The reviews I read for Travel China Guide were 5 star and now I know why. They are exceptionally professional and proficient. As a neophyte, I had dozens of questions prior to the trip and my travel consultant promptly responded to every query via e-mail. Wow! Thank you, Emily, for covering every detail and especially for your instructions regarding WeChat! Travel China Guide exceeded my expectations in terms of meeting me at the airport in Beijing, transport to 5-star hotels, great meals, two elegant dinners, a splendid cruise, fluent English-speaking tour guides, making suggestions for our free time, answering all of our questions, luxurious buses for just 13 of us, transport to the Shanghai airport, etc. Throughout the trip, our friendly tour guides got our boarding passes at the airport and made sure we were ready to fly to the next destination. The amazing hospitality was quintessential in every respect. Whether you are touring with friends, family, or going solo as I did, I highly recommend Agate Travel for anyone who wants to relax and enjoy a worry-free vacation! As a matter of fact, I already am planning my next trip with them!

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai cost?
+
Prices start at $2859 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beijing is not rushed.
Is 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 28 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 240-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai?
+
Around 10 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beijing can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 10-Day China Tour: Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin and Shanghai start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beijing within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Beijing?
+
On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options, Beijing: Top 6 Highlights All Inclusive 2-Day Private Tour, Private Mutianyu Great Wall Trip With English-Speaking Driver. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Beijing?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Beijing?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
