    The trip was wonderful! As a senior woman traveling alone I could not have asked for a better trip. Everything was well organized and the guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. Arriving in China by myself I was nervous but the tour guide was waiting for me at arrivals at the airport, which right away put me at ease. In Chongquing , I was the only person arriving on that particular day. I had a guide and driver to myself that day. I believe the tour guide went way above what was required. He introduced me to some of the history of the city, and showed me the market area. He answered my many questions about the city and was so pleasant and concerned that I should not become too tired. Every tour guide treated us so well. I often felt like I had a member of my family with me because of the concern of the tour guides. When taking the bullet train, I was taken right to the car I was traveling in! When I arrived in Shanghai my new guide was there waiting for me. The five star hotels were very comfortable. The different sites we visited were interesting. I traveled in a group which was 18 when we started on the last days was only 9 because the others were visiting other cities. It was a great group of people, everyone arrived on time whenever a meeting time was set. At lunch we just enjoyed each other's company. This was my first visit to China and I was amazed at what a first world country with an rich history. Thank you for organizing this trip, I have memories for many years to come.
