We went on the 10 day Best of China with Pandas of Beijing, Xi'an, Chengdu and Shanghai. The tour exceeded our expectations! All our four guides were knowledgeable, patient, caring and service oriented. They all went out of their way to make sure we were taken the best care of. 4 star hotels were nice, comfortable and their locations were perfect. We liked the idea to eat on our own. Our guides gave wonderful recommendations. We especially loved the hot pot dinner recommended by Miki, our guide in Chengdu. People in China were so welcoming, friendly and just nicel. We had some free time exploration and asked for help several times from the locals and they both tried to help the best they could though they did not speak much English. Many thanks to ElysianTour for a memorable tour! If I could rate more than 5 star to their service, I would easily do so.
