"Our 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.
