As-salam Johan,
 
Apologies for the late reply as I was too preoccupied with the existing workload.
 
To sum up, my friends and I are very pleased and contented with the services provided by your good office. Ms. Lulu,  the tour guide was very much of an assistance. Not only she rendered all the serviced required, she was also willing to help us out accommodating to our needs. For instance, she had accompanied us to the Fake Market at the Muslim Quarter vicinity and helped us out to bargain the goods at a very fair price. Ms. Lulu’s vast knowledge on Xi’an’s history and environment are very impressive. She has a good command of English as well. During our stay in Xi’an, we have developed a form of friendship with Ms. Lulu as she has taken care and concerned of us quite well.
 
As for our driver, we have no complaints nor qualms at all against him. As he is generally a quiet and reserved person, we still feel comfortable with his presence. Like Ms. Lulu, he has also catered to our needs even it was outside his job scope. This is evident by the trip to the Tang Dynasty show.  Nevertheless, the massive traffic and “skillful” driving styles of the Xi’an people has a resemblance of Beijing’s. But I guess that is somehow normal in China.
 
As for Xi’an City Hotel, its strategic and convenient location has really eased our trip especially our never ending back and forth to the Muslim Quarter. The room is spacious and beds are comfy. However, the breakfast spread didn’t provide us with much choice as it was not entirely of halal meals. We just settled down with drinks and bread/mantou and fruits just to keep us going until lunch.
 
Lucky for us, during our entire tour, we were brought to an exclusive/high end Halal restaurants for lunches and dinners. The meals were ordered by Ms. Lulu and we really enjoyed them until every last bite with the exception of the Sichuan pepper meals.  We feel that the package of USD288 per pax was worth and value for money.
 
As for you Mr. Johan, we would like to thank you for arranging this wonderful trip for us. We have gained plenty of knowledge and impressed by the ancient history and civilization. The whole experience is mesmerizing and valuable. We have recommended to our family and friends and looking forward to visiting Xi’an again. Insya Allah.
 
For and behalf of Nor Zabetha, Siti Sazila, Nor Shazlina, Suzana Fazreen and Norlirani,

Salaam Johan & IslamiChina team,
 
I just came back from the tour a few days ago and firstly I just want to say Thank you personally to Johan for making all the necessary arrangement for my recent ICT012 tour to Beijing, Xian and Shanghai. I really enjoyed the tour very much. Here are my feedback on the tour packages:
 
1) Beijing
 
a. Tourguide - Vicky.
Vicky is very friendly & helpful. She is knowledgeable not only on the tour places but also on Islamic sensitivities. She even suggested me some additional things to do on my free time outside the itinerary (at my own expenses of course) such as the acrobatic performance. She gave me options on the Great Wall locations and let me decide the gate for us to climb. She had all the entrance ticket ready so we didn’t waste any time. This is very good service that she is providing. I am happy with Vicky.
 
b. Hotel accommodation - Taishun Hotel
The hotel is pretty far from nearest Metro subway station and any other attractions or shopping malls. The only positive point on the hotel is that it offers Halal Food. There is no safety box nor fridge.
 
c. Tour places.
Vicky relooked at my itinerary and suggested some changes to better manage the time. This is very good indeed because she is in a better place to know where everything is nearby located to be grouped into one day. She selected good & delicious halal restaurants.
 
2) Xian
 
a. Tourguide – Sally.
Sally is a nice lady and knowledgeable about the history of Xian as well as China as a whole. Even though she has never handled a muslim tour before, she asked for my advise on food and prayer times. She even introduced me to local Xian delicacies like the sticky rice stick, pomegranate cake, rose steamed rice and the biang biang noodle at her own expenses. She is very flexible in having additional itinerary such as climbing the City Wall (additional charge on my own) to make sure my trip is complete. The only thing is that she needs to pre-determine the eating Halal places so that we don’t have to choose last minute Halal places.
 
b. Hotel accommodation – Xian City Hotel
The hotel is in town and near to Metro subway station. Very good amenities & location. Recommended.
 
c. Tour places.
Sally followed my itinerary and flexible to accommodate any additional as long as time permits.
 
3) Shanghai
 
a. Tourguide – Cici.
Cici has a bubbly personality and knowledgeable about the places in Shanghai. She accompanied me up to the entrance of the river cruise to make sure I am OK (because a lot of local Chinese tourists). My suggestion for Cici is to purchase the ticket in advance instead of buying them when we are there at the place. (because she knows my itinerary).
 
b. Hotel accommodation – Holiday Inn Express Hotel
The hotel is new and very strategic locations to both Metro subway station and shopping malls. Recommended.
 
c. Tour places.
Cici brought me to all the places as planned and advise me on the timing. She even helped me to bargain on some of the souvenirs that I bought.
 
Overall, I am happy with the service that had been provided to me. Here I attached some photos of the tour.
 
Thank you Johan and thank you IslamiChina.
 
Regards,
 
Iskandar

Dear Hanna and IslamiChina Agency,
 
China was simply amazing! Hangzhou, Suzhou and Shanghai are one of the most beautiful and amazing metropolitan city I've been to. The hotels we've checked in were good, clean and the room condition 7 out of 10. The places we went were great as we get to learn the history of the cities we're visiting and the same time enjoying the cool weather of china. It was really excited for us Malaysian to be in sweater all day due to the cool climate. The food was really delicious! We get to eat 10 delicious dishes in each restaurant we went. The stop for lunch and dinner was really excited as we get to eat chinnese food in China - the feeling was simply amazing. Everything were good, but we lack time for shopping. We hope for a longer time for shopping, that would add up the excitement! Overall, China was good, so does the cities, the food were great, hotels were good and the places we visited give us a lot of knowledge and experiences. 8 out 10 for the trip!!
 
Many thanks

Good morning Johan and Hanna
 
Mr Afzal and family returned last week, and I’m happy to say they thoroughly enjoyed their trip. The food they said was great, and the guides were excellent. Thank you for taking extra care of these guests, and going forward happy to use the same guides and restaurant options as a framework for similar clients.
 
One negative they mentioned was at the Sophia Hotel, where they were asked to pay for their son’s breakfast. The hotel were not allowing the child to dine at breakfast. Other than that, all was fine.
 
In fact, they would like to enquire about a return trip, this time they would like to explore Lahsa and Chengdu. They only have 7 nights (arrival August 2016), and if you could suggest an itinerary to include Lahsa, Chegdu and maybe the Yangtze and Three Gorges Dam would be great. Again for 2 adults and 2 children (the elder one would actually just turned 12 then).
 
Many thanks
