Normally i would like to say whether you meet the guide who provide excelland service with responsible attitude for your trip. In a word, you still need to learn some information for the country you plan to visit such as history/culture/customs etc. It will be more helpful. Enjoy!

GUEST41138	Personally I think Freeiva is a good website for foreigners and those freelances or college students.. It is a good platform for them ,it offers many part-time jobs and truely free-of-charge . I strongly recommend it!

GUEST20242	I have read about FreeIVA, sounded really good, but the terms and conditions do not seem to give any protection for the user! Any reviews from those who have used the service.

GUEST91455	Freeiva is not a honest site at all and pls don't use it. 1.They charge 50% commission from the translator which is huge; 2.The translators there are all part time and not professional; 3.It's not even a legal company to offer translation service in China,it's just a online track. Be careful!

Yes I agree with the last statement. This company is unprofessional and is non-ethical. I prepaid their service fees after agreeing on their rate and service. They after started demanding more money for the services we already agreed upon. I lowered the requirements I needed and they again raised their fees knowing that my appointment is in 24 hours and they thought I didn't have any other options and would agree to their higher price demand.

This company is no better then the people you meet in the street selling tour packages and then force you to go to stores that sell expensive knock offs, then the tour guide demands more money from you or threatens to leave you road side if you don't pay up. (book your tours with your hotel, they might be slightly more costly but you are safer and have recourse if there are problems).
