About Me

Hi Dear Friends. Welcome to China!

My name is Judy Dong. I am an experienced independent Interpreter, Trip Planner and Travel Guide for whoever speak English or Chinese. With plenty of years' working experience in international tourism and interpreting fields, I offer all types of services for private customized tours, interpretating and translating, Private transportation as well as business, conference and sourcing, tutoring services. 

Personally, I am an active local who loves outdoor activities, which enbale me to be more open-minded and optimistic towards whatever happen around with a big heart. Being an easy-going person and a fan of diversified culture, I have met various kinds of people and learnt plenty of wonderful stories from all over the world. Through trips organized by me, you will not only get to know China, but develop deeper insights of the genuine life in China that is different from what you have mostly learnt through the public media. Being born in a big traditional Chinese family which witnessed the transition of China from a chaotic era to a peaceful period, I fully understand what you are interested and curious to learn about my country in your trips. By planning your trips, I would like to present you a real China with unique schedules and stories through a local's perspective. Like I always tell the internationals: My trips will be your window to see China while you are our window to see this world.

China requires that all interpreters and customized trip planners are licensed. I am officially licensed for planning all sorts of customized trips and interpreting services. Your experience in China with my planning will make you feel at home. Nothing should be stereotyped in your trip. If you have any of your own creative ideas about exploring China, please feel free to reach out to me as I can fully customize your trip.

This is for a Hainan trip. Judy herself was not available during our trip to Hainan, but she recommended Mr Xu to me as our driver for the 3 days we requested. My family and I are extremely pleased with Mr Xu’s services and would highly recommend him. We had planned our own itinerary with very specific places we wanted to go, covering Haikou, Wenchang, Lingshiu and Sanya. Mr Xu was extremely professional. Even though he was not familiar with one or two places we wanted to go, he asked his colleagues, searched the web, and made phone calls to the establishments on our behalf to find a way to get us to those locations. He didn’t deal with us just as a driver, he wanted to make sure we could achieve what we wanted to do in Hainan. And because of him we could visit all the places we wanted to go, even the little known ones. Mr Xu was also very accommodating. We wanted to go to the Fengguo waterfall in Diaoluoshan area. The last 8km or so of the route was not well maintained, with potholes, overgrown trees and broken branches littered over many stretches. Although his vehicle (Honda Odyssey) was not quite suitable for such conditions, Mr Xu persisted and brought us to the carpark without a single complaint, risking scratches to his car and possible damages to the undercarriage. Good thing it didn’t happen. Mr Xu was also very helpful. Although we engaged him only for driving us around, Mr Xu would make recommendations based on what he saw were our interests, and would always make it a point to help us get entrance tickets and make restaurant bookings for us. Mr Xu also gave us a ride to the Sanya airport for free on the day we were going home. All in all, we had a smooth, stress-free and enjoyable trip in Hainan, because we knew Mr Xu could settle the details of our journey for us. Do note that Mr Xu cannot speak English so he’s recommended for Chinese-speaking visitors like us. Read less

Judy guided me 3 days last June in Beijing and to Mount Tai (Tai'Shan).

Judy is a good guide and a very pleasant company to be with; she speaks English well.

She is a courageous young lady, as well: In a couple of days, we climbed more than 4.000 steps up the mountain, then went down 4.000 again, had a long walk on a road... In spite of getting blisters Judy never complained and stayed cool all the way.

She even went with me the next day cycling around Beijing, activity perfectly suited to visit central Beijing.

I certainly recommend Judy as a guide and will surely call her when I visit Beijing again.
