| Well, you have to be patient since you have a very limited "qualification." Perhaps not many people are planning on going to GuangZhou especially on New Years, which is winter if you are talking about January. I'm not sure when is Chinese New Year though. Also, please understand that most foreigners will not jump on your offer, at least not right away, especially those who are well-read and have traveled to China before. A lot of us have been "burned" or have had bad experiences. Nevertheless, we love China and try to learn from our mistakes. |

| I'm sure you are a good man but people do not know that. We are not psychics. We cannot read minds. Yes, we've been tricked when we were in China but that doesn't mean we think everyone are like that. We are just being cautious. My post was not meant to offend you but offer you insights into how travelers usually think. Goodluck! |

Sincerely,Best wishes! --------Micechow |

| Hey, no apologies needed. You didn't do anything wrong. I think you are very sincere in your offer so I know you are bound to find friends here. If I am going to GuangZhou, who knows I might contact you but no plans as of now. China is so big that there is so much to see! |
| Nov 25, 2007 20:27 | #7 |
| Yes~China is so big,and is so much to see! And if you came to Guangzhou, there must be somewhere you shouldn't miss~~~maybe I can be your dragoman then,if you don't mind~~~hehe.... By the way,you said" A lot of us have been "burned" or have had bad experiences. Nevertheless, we love China and try to learn from our mistakes. " Could you give me some examples,please? I just want to know more about that, and I do know that life is not easy to anyone.... thank you! |

| I think you should read this thread: http://community.travelchinaguide.com/forum2.asp?i=36850 It's about the tourist traps us travelers encounter while in China. I intend to post there, just never had the chance yet. Personally, I haven't had any bad experience with tourist guides since I travel alone. I refuse to join tour groups because I want to explore at my own pace, on my own time. I also don't want to be limited on what can I see or where can I go. I don't wanna be dragged into some factory and be pressured to buy stuff I don't really intend to buy. I'm the kind who if I love the place, I would keep coming back to it. This is why I want to go back to China. My bad experience was with taxi drivers when I was in Beijing. I was so naive to hail a "taxi" in front of the Summer Palace. The driver charged me 150 yuan from Summer Palace to Peking University because he said there's a heavy traffic. Not only that, when I gave him the 150 yuan, he switched my two real 100 yuan with two fake 100 yuan. Again, I was so naive. He said that the first 100 yuan has a tear on the middle. Well, I don't remember it having a tear but then I never memorize how the money I have in possession looks like. The second one he said has a tear on the side. The only time I learned that I had fake 100 yuan was when I tried to exchange them at the bank because of the tear. The bank confiscated them from me. Bottomline, I actually lost 350 yuan on that very short trip. 350 yuan is not much. I guess losing the money is tough but the feeling that you have been fooled/cheated on is even worse. These are some of the reasons why it is hard for us to trust. I hate to think what would happen in the Olympics. Some other taxi drivers charged me 30 yuan for a trip that would only cost 11 yuan had they used the taxi meter. An Iranian tourist I know was charged 800 yuan from the airport to his hotel in Beijing. |

| Dear Shesgottobe, I am really much impressed by what you say. To say angry is really not enough. I am sad really for the Chinese. You know, as I chinese, I have even cheated by the compatriot. When in college, i want to find a part-time job from a middle man, but cheated for several hundreds and i am very sad also. But now i have wrok experience, i think much and then people will not easily cheat me. As a chinese, i am really ashamed and they really destroy Chinese fame. However, i think that there are tricker in every country, more or less. You foreigners should not get disappointed about China. Just one taxi driver cheat you. I want to give you some suggestion, 1 Take some changes with you and it is better not to give them One Hundred, then they will have no chance to change it and give you a false one. 2. Generally, the drivers don't receive much education. People (just some) with little education more easily to cheat people and even steal. However, like the Micechow, who receive the College education and can speak good english are more elegant, kind and friendly. They will not destroy chinese fame. 3. If possible, when you come, find one reliable tour guide, who can handle with Chinese, solve the language barrier, save money, familiar with the cities, etc, though should have extra expense, but much reassuring and safe. Really wish you a happy and rememberable journey to China next. Jo qiao Shanghai, China |

| Oh ,my god~I really sorry to hear that!~it looks as if just unbelivable.maybe I even much naive than you.That's really not a good experience, I hope that wouldnot dislike Chinese people or this country,and like the LILYSPRI... said, let's look down on those men.....If I am the God, I am sure I'll punish them, till they are crying and swear won't do it again! ! And, I think LILYSPRL's words quite right. when we are going to a place for vacation,we have better know as many as we can about the details, what we will be facing in the vacation.Of course , not anything can be taken into account, no matter how carefulness you are! I mean ,just do more preparation~~~ Thank you , LILYSPRI...and, as Chinese we are, let's try our best to make our country much nice and sweet~~~I hope all the Chinese people can be more friendly and kindly to the oversea friends!! |
