In
China, there are generally two guides in one group, national guide
and local guide. National
guide usually
go with a tour group of more than 10 people, from the first city
you enter China to the last city in China. The national guide is
responsible for matters within airport (as the local guide can not
overpass the security line), lead the group to the next city and
handle all people and luggage to the local guide. The national
guide also checks the local guide's service, makes sure all
promised program and meals realized, and deal with all any
expected things together with local guide and tour leader. The
national guide cannot leave the group until all tourists have
left. Local
guide,
serving to local travel agency which reserve all meals, bus and
sightseeing, leads the group to finish all programs in that city
and deals with all things happened. For example, if one tourist is
seriously sick, the local guide should call relevant hospital, and
together with national guide and tour leader, to take the tourist
to the hospital. But if the tourist can not be recovered soon,
local guide has to back to the group with the national
guide staying
with the tourist.

Bus
All
the bus for tourists are air-conditioned, safe and clean.
All big and medium-sized cities in China all have bus
companies for tourists and drivers are all specially trained
and skillful. For the sake of tourists' comfort, we usually
arrange bigger bus than the group size. If there are 20
people in the group, for example, we usually use a 36-seat
bus, and if there are 50, we use two 36-seat buses instead
of one 56-seat bus even
though this cost us more. For the
two-bus group, there will be two local
guides. |
