This was absolutely the highlight of our China experience! While Guilin is exceptional in it's own right, our guide, Cory, made our trip one that will live in our memories forever. He was attentive, humorous, understanding and did everything to make our trip a trip of a lifetime. He changed the itinerary on the fly, listened to us, made sure we encountered locals, made sure we were comfortable every step of the way and truly made us feel like his family. There is absolutely not enough good things I can say about him or China Culture Tours. They were timely, totally tailored our tour to our wishes and professional. I can back up my review as 1) we also tried another agency in Beijing and 2) this was my second trip to Gulin. As to the former, our guide fell way below our expectation and while we saw the Great Wall, Summer Palace and Forbidden City, we walked away with a cold experience and not much extra knowledge. As to the latter, I saw places and did things in Guilin, that were not experienced before but surpassed all expectations. We actually met locals and were immersed with them and it made the whole trip spectacular. Not only would I not hesitate to recommend China Culture Tours!!!! But ASK for Cory- he is truly a wonderful man and so knowledgeable. He will take care of you from the beginning to the end and he will do everything to make sure your trip is a trip of a lifetime!
