- MMMarvin· June 29th, 2025The tour of China was outstanding and well managed by the in-country tour company. I would use Tour Radar again. there were two issues that require tweaking. First, the website depicts the ability to get visa through another company which mis advertised the timeline and required a quick unplanned trip to the China Embassy to obtain the visa. Second, transition information from one city to another was late to be received and caused unneeded concern fo my wife and I. Great once in a lifetime trip.Show more

Trip date: February 2025 - Sara· December 1st, 2024Our family recently took a private tour of China with Realistic Asia and it was an unforgettable experience. As a family with elderly parents, we were looking for a trip that would be both enjoyable and manageable, and Realistic Asia delivered. The Spanish-speaking guides were absolutely fantastic. They were knowledgeable, patient, and went out of their way to ensure that my parents felt comfortable and understood everything. The guides' expertise made a huge difference in our overall experience. We were also very impressed with the quality of the hotels and the food. The accommodations were comfortable and clean, and the meals were delicious and varied. The transportation to and from the airport was smooth and efficient. Having a private tour allowed us to customize our itinerary and spend quality time together as a family. We were able to explore Chinese culture and history at our own pace, and the guides were always happy to answer our questions. We would like to thank Realistic Asia for providing us with such a wonderful trip. Everything was well-organized and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Realistic Asia to anyone looking for a personalized and unforgettable travel experience in China.Show moreRealistic Asia commented on this reviewDear Sara, Thank you so much for your wonderful review!
