China Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Jasmine was wonderful. Sharing life experiences of living in Hong Kong, showing us the raw examples of life at different levels of poverty and the social housing pressures and how important family are in supporting each other . Including explaining the role of local volunteers in helping people

Jasmine was a wonderful tour guide. Not only a master of facts around the economics of housing she brought up the emotional toll of living, always on the edge of survival.. One can read about the caged houses, see photos, but being in the tiny suffocating space made me claustrophobic and so very sad.. She addressed the issue of mental health, which just gets pushed down because of the overwhelming weight of survival. This was my first tour of Hong Kong and I’m sure it will influence all the other aspects that I explore. Thank you, Jasmin.

Sofia very good guide and informative

Sofia was a great tour guide! We learned a lot about the forbidden city, even on my 4th time visiting. Would visit again 😁

This is my third time with lost plate food tour, it's a must do experience in China. special mention to Winnie who is the best guide ever!

Overall the tour was well organized, there was plenty of time for pictures and hiking a part of the wall , the guide Susie was excellent and gave us a lot of information about the History of China and today's China . Lunch was very good. Would recommend the tour with no reservations.

Despite the long lines and the crowds, we had a very enjoyable tour with Jenny. We learned a lot about China, past and present. She was engaging, knowledgeable and patient. She took time to answer all our questions, and we asked a lot! We highly recommend this tour, and Jenny as a tour guide.

Grace was an excellent guide, taking us through the hutongs and explaining the history behind the food we ate. Her passion for history was shinning through and helped us learn more about the stories that surround our tables and streets. Highly recommend this tour!! Thank you Grace!

We had a wonderful visit to the Great Wall with our guide Jenny. A nice, clean car picked us up and we had a smooth drive to the Great Wall. Everything went smoothly thanks to Jenny’s organisation and we really enjoyed visiting the wall. We got some great photos! We had a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. I would highly recommend this tour.

Really enjoyed my tour, our guide Max did a great job explaining the food and parts of the culture in Shanghai. I also appreciated his recommendations for other things to do in the area.

Had a great experience visiting the Terracotta Warriors! Jeff was very helpful and responsive while organising, and Vila was an excellent guide — very knowledgeable, shared lots of interesting details and answered all my questions.

Michael Shi is knowledgeable guide.

My friend and I had a wonderful night exploring food with Janne! We wanted foods more off the beaten path, especially since we're fans of Chinese cuisine, and this definitely satisfied that want. Janne was a really kind and knowledgable guide.

Fabulous tour of Forbidden City and Tianamen Square. Angel was amazing and took excellent care of us. I highly recommend this tour

100% do this so worth it the power of the buddha was mesmerizing ! easy to locate took the train from hong kong

We travelled to this ancient city as a couple and booked a day tour to experience the highlights of this city. We met with Tina in the morning and travelled to Terracotta Warriors, Qing Emperor Musoleum and the Big Wild Goose Pergoda. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Tina as she was insightful, knowledgeable and patient with our needs. The day was action packed yet at a great pace, we had plenty of breaks and learnt a lot about the Chinese history. Admission fees were reasonable. It's good to go in September as the crowd was smaller due to school holidays ending just a few days ago. Tina's English was also very fluent to help my partner understand everything that was going on. I want to thank her for her time today and making great memories for my partner and I here in Xi'an.
