BEIJING, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- The China Guide, a Beijing-based Travel Company, is now offering travelers real insights into their client's past tour experiences. When planning trips to China, travelers can be weary of local tour operators as they must rely on internet information and websites alone. Most China-based travel companies will post client references on their homepage but it isn't easy to determine if the information is legitimate. The China Guide ( http://www.TheChinaGuide.com ) is solving this problem by using Facebook to allow clients to post their service experience.

"We receive lots of great feedback from our clients about our tours, our guides and their time in China. However, this feedback is sent to us over email or feedback forms which future clients can't see," remarks Peter Danford, Owner and Operating Manager of The China Guide. "Now we have started to ask our clients to post a service review onto our Facebook group. This way travelers know that the information is legitimate, coming from real people, not made up by the company." Using a Facebook group for client references also means that future travelers can contact people who have added their input. They can inquire directly about The China Guide's service and share travel advice.

Future China travelers can also see photos from The China Guide's past clients. Clients are encouraged to share their trip photos so that others can get a real perspective on the sights in China. Photos on The China Guide's Facebook group are captioned with the name and date of the tour in which the photos were taken. The best and most creative photos are also awarded a prize from The China Guide as part of their Photo Contest.

The best way for travelers to plan vacations and tours in China is to read truthful information from real sources. See hereto, visit The China Guide's Facebook group: http://www.TheChinaGuide.com/facebook
