Dear Sir / Madam,

I am writing to formally express my sincere appreciation and commendation for the outstanding service provided by Ms. Vivien Li during our recent travel arrangements.

Throughout the entire process, Ms. Vivien Li demonstrated exceptional professionalism, efficiency, and dedication to her work. Her responses were consistently prompt and attentive, even during her holiday leave, when she still took the initiative to reply to our emails and ensure that our concerns were addressed without delay. Such commitment reflects a remarkable sense of responsibility and customer care that is truly commendable.

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen health issues, we were compelled to cancel our fully paid trip. During what was already a stressful period for us, Ms. Vivien Li went beyond her normal duties to assist in handling the cancellation and refund process. Her extra effort and close follow-up enabled the refund arrangement to be completed within just a few days after cancellation, which we greatly appreciated.

Her willingness to go the extra mile, combined with her patience, efficiency, and genuine concern for customers, turned a difficult situation into one that was handled smoothly and reassuringly. In today's service industry, such dedication is invaluable and deserves formal recognition.

Please convey our heartfelt thanks to Ms. Vivien Li for her exemplary service. She has represented your organization with distinction, and her professionalism has left us with a very positive impression of your company.

Yours faithfully,

Elsa

Title: Outstanding Service – Vivien Li Went Above and Beyond in Every Way!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Vivien Li from Chengdu Bamboo International Tours (also known as China Discovery Tours). She provided one of the best customer service experiences I have ever had while helping me book my Yangtze River cruise.

From the very beginning, Vivien was incredibly professional—diligent, responsive, patient, and resourceful. I had many questions during the planning process, and she took the time to answer every single one thoroughly and thoughtfully. She also sent helpful reminders about meeting times and locations, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. On top of that, she even reached out with holiday greetings, which added such a thoughtful and personal touch.

What truly sets Vivien apart, however, is how she handled an unexpected issue that had nothing to do with her. When I arrived at Chongqing International Airport, my luggage did not arrive with me. I was told it might be delivered the next day—the same day my cruise was scheduled to depart—but there were no guarantees. I felt completely stuck and unsure of what to do.

I reached out to Vivien just to ask about timing in case my luggage was delayed, and she immediately stepped in to help. She stayed in constant communication, provided clear next steps, and even explained contingency plans—such as arranging to have my luggage shipped to the next port if needed.

But what truly amazed me was that Vivien didn’t stop there. She went above and beyond by helping track down my luggage and coordinating its delivery—something even the airport baggage staff couldn’t clearly resolve. Thanks to her persistence and dedication, I was reunited with my luggage in time for my cruise.

This level of care and ownership is incredibly rare.

Vivien Li is truly exceptional, and her company should be very proud to have her on their team. If every travel representative operated with her level of professionalism and genuine care, the travel experience would be so much better for everyone.

I am extremely grateful for everything she did, and I highly recommend requesting Vivien Li when booking with Chengdu Bamboo International Tours or China Discovery Tours. I will absolutely book through her again for future trips to China.

She is simply amazing!
