Dear Mr.Daniel Li
I want to thank you very much for operating our 4-day Beijing tour for my family. Thanks to your help as well as your tour guide--Allen. All three of us had a wonderful time and enjoyed a trip with minimal worries.
Right from the start, I was impressed with your quick response to my initial requirement list. I gave the same requirement list to a few different travel agents. Your turn around time was the shortest and your proposal was the best, satisfied most of the requirements, and was within budget.
As you can see, Mr. Li, you did a wonderful job and we are very satisfied clients. I have been telling my friends about my experience with you and I sincerely hope that you will get more business from them should they decide to visit Beijing.
Thank you again.
Sincerely,
James H. Yanke
