There are so many tour guides listed! Who should you choose? Here are some tips on picking a guide suitable for you.

• See if there are reviews by other travelers posted on their profile. Of course, our tour guide listings are quite new so there aren’t many reviews yet.
• See how long the tour guide has been signed up on China-girls. If they have been on for a long time, this means there is no way they could have hidden bad reviews.
• Check out content contributed by the tour guide. This can display their knowledge and enthusiasm. Content they submitted is listed on their profile page.
• Ask for references.

Getting the Most Out of Your Tour

Talk to your tour guides before meeting them. Discuss:

• The length of time they will work.
• How many people will be attending.
• Who will pay entrance tickets, meal fees and transportation fees.  Also mention whether or not you will be tipping.  Tipping is NOT the custom in China, but some tour guides have come to expect it because their customers often tip.
• Where you will be traveling together. For that matter, tell them where you will NOT be traveling together as well. It is common for tour guides to earn commission for bringing travelers to gift shops. If you don’t want to stop at any of these, let them know ahead of time.
• Any special considerations you will need.
• What currency you will be paying in. This should be Chinese Yuan (Renminbi). You pay the tour guide directly. At the time of writing, Synotrip charges neither the ‘tripper’ nor the tour guide.

Finally, after using their services, please go to their profile and post a review. This is highly useful for other trippers and your guide will appreciate it.
