And I’m not just talking about the travel arrangements. She also helped me with all the visas, practical necessities, advice about money and health recommendations to make sure I could travel safely and with peace of mind. She also helped me extend my trip to include Nepal in addition to Tibet, and that part of the journey was organised brilliantly as well.
I had an amazing experience from start to finish, with absolutely no problems of any kind. It was a truly wonderful trip. Honestly, my only regret is that my time in Tibet lasted just one week, because Tibet deserves much more time.
The quality-to-price ratio was incredible, and I would absolutely recommend Cian Tour to anyone planning a trip to Tibet or Nepal. If you are organising a journey like this, I highly recommend relying on them — they are truly excellent.

The 2 English speaking guides, that were provided(1 for the north and the other for the south) were both local residents of Xinjiang and they were excellent with the information they provided and had local knowledge of eateries we went to. The driver, Wang sifu, was a very helpful, cheerful and a careful driver. In China, drivers are addressed by their surname, and followed by "sifu", it's a respectful way of addressing drivers, and has no martial arts connotations.
Both guides( Karim of Kashgar and Amy of Urumqi) spoke English well and they both bought us, local foods/fruits to experience. The local Hami rock melons were juicy, crunchy and sweet, and the local bread, the naan, fresh from the oven, full of goodness. Eating out in Xinjiang is very affordable especially, when our Aussie dollar get 4.75 renminbi to the A$. Meals were 2-3 thousand years of recorded history. The Silk Road carried both material goods as well as great human thoughts and ideation. The flow was bi-directional. Visiting many of the old ruins and sites, evoked very strong emotions and we marvelled at mankind's ingenuity. The flow of religions along the Silk Road was amply demonstrated at many of the sites visited.
We felt safe in Xinjiang and there is no overt display of religiosity.
With regard to the China Xian Tour company, we have booked a 2nd trip for 19 days of Ancient China Silk Road or mid October, this too was organised through Sophia.

She also chose a fantastic restaurant for lunch, and the food was delicious. What impressed us most was how well she engaged our children—they thoroughly enjoyed the tour and stayed interested throughout the entire day!
Jiajia truly made our experience special, and we would highly recommend her and this tour to anyone visiting Xi’an. A fantastic guide and a memorable experience!

Our guide was Britany who would be the best guide we have ever had on our many travels. She spoke perfect and clear English and was always available to help. She helped us get through air ports and railway stations, shopping, and banks. One sick person she took to the doctors and then the hospital and stayed with him.
She was incredibly knowledgable and very well organised. Her timing helped us to visit many places before the crowds arrived.
I would thoroughly recommend this tour as it covered a large section of China and included places in Tibet.

Chengdu Jiuzhaigou Travel Tips & Articles
FAQs about Chengdu Jiuzhaigou Tours
High-speed train is the top option for balancing comfort and efficiency. There are about 6 pairs of trains running between Chengdu East Station and Huanglong Jiuzhai Station daily. The travel time is around 2.5 hours. From Huanglong Jiuzhai Station, visitors can take a private car or shuttle bus to the scenic area in around 1.5-2.5 hours.
Flight is also available, but not recommended due to the potential delays and long travel time from the city center to the airport.
The long-distance buses usually take over 6 hours and are less comfortable than high-speed trains.
Jiuzhaigou is beautiful year-round. The peak season to travel to Jiuzhaigou is usually from April to November.
September to November are, especially, the best months to see Jiuzhaigou in its most colorful state.
July to August is the most water-filled time, but expect to see more travelers and higher prices.
March to May is the best time to balance price and crowds. The seasonal peach blossoms are bonuses in this period, though some spots may have less water.
December to February is cold, with occasional snow. This is the low season, so expect cheaper hotels and tickets and fewer tourists. The frozen waterfalls are amazing.
Chengdu is the most convenient gateway to Jiuzhaigou thanks to the flexible transport options (high-speed train, private car, plane, and long-distance coach).
Plus, the Giant Panda Base, leisure lifestyle, delectable food, and rich cultural experiences together make Chengdu worth a visit for first-time visitors to Sichuan and China.
