What Our Customers Say
Elysian Tours were great help, provided excellent communication in English and support online from Xian during the trip, provided a guide and driver in Guilin for us, no required shopping or other nonsense. Very happy with Elysian Tours, highly recommended :-)
Ms. Anna Fancett
My fiance had planned proposed me in the Great Wall and Elysian Tour helped him with all details, it was absolutely romantic! All our guides spoke very good English and explained us the history and culture of the Chinese places that we met, also they took excllent pictures. We definitely will chose Elysian Tour again if we return to China.
Ms. Helga Davila Galindo
We had a great time in China. We appreciate all the drivers and guides that help us along the way and their efforts to make us comfortable. I wanted to point out the driver in Beijing, Aaron our Chengdu guide, and Ocean our Shanghai guide; they were phenomenal. All three went above our expectations and we couldn’t be happier. Once again, we appreciate all your company has done.
Ms. Fiona Ma
I was pleasantly surprised by Elysian Tour. First by the prompt responses while going through the booking and later by the very knowledgeable guides in all 3 cities: Beijing, Xi'an and Shanghai.
Mr. Bogdan Morariu
I am giving Candy and Elysian tour company my highest recommendation. If you are planning a trip to China or anywhere that Elysian tour covers, Contact Candy. You will definitely be glad that you did. I will be looking to her for our next trip.

We totally changed our image of China! We are sure that we leave our hearts in this amazing country and promised that we will be back in the near future.

Thank you very much for everything you did with exceptional travel arrangement for us. All went well and happily leaving this great country.
Mrs. Toshiko
The extra cost involved in doing a private tour in China was overwhelmingly worth it. We were able to learn about the people, the country and the history of this amazing country. We planned our trip for six months and Elysian Team always made us feel like important clients, always responding to our many questions and several changes. We highly recommend Elysian Travel, pay a little extra perhaps but get a life time experience.
