Journey Name
Guide selection depends on city, dates, language, pace, subject interest, and availability. Credentials and identity are checked for the booking rather than replaced by unsupported public totals.
A planner first identifies the cities, touring days, pace, language needs, and specialist interests. Operations then checks available guide partners against that brief. The selected guide receives the relevant itinerary and traveler requirements before the service day.
Names, credentials, and specific expertise are confirmed for the booking. They are not inferred from a generic network claim.

The guide is matched to the city or route being delivered.

A good handoff connects the confirmed itinerary to the people delivering it.
The brief can include walking comfort, food requirements, family needs, photography interests, previous China experience, and topics the traveler wants to understand. This gives the assigned guide practical context without publishing private traveler information.

Start PlanningAnswers based on the specific booking context.
No. Names are confirmed after route, dates, and availability are checked. A specific request is guaranteed only when written into the booking.
The product page states the format. A private journey uses a guide for the booking party; a Signature Journey follows its stated 4-10 traveler group format.
Only the credential actually checked for the assigned service should appear in booking records or public claims.
Operational changes can happen. If an assigned guide changes, the replacement and handoff should be communicated through the named booking contact.
We will use that brief when checking guide availability for your dates.
