Thank you Yaodema for the wonderful tour and time we spent together. Since my flight arrived a little bit too tight, Yaodema offered to do a flexible tour and route. This has been a perfect match, he was very familiar and knowledgeable. Thank you once again

The guide is likely to confirm then change late the night before the walk and inform you you are the only walker therefore group walk is cancelled but you can book them for a private tour and pay RMB 300 for 2 hours and RMB100 per additional hour. In my opinion, they seem to be using this platform to source for paid private tour customers. They couldn’t confirm a single day in the next couple of days they are likely to actually host a free walking tour

Response from YaoDema Guide
Thank you for leaving your feedback. For future walkers, I wish to clarify the situation factually, based on documented communication. This tour operates as a free group walking tour, running only when the minimum number of participants is reached. On the date in question, there was only one booking, so the group tour could not proceed. This was not a cancellation by the guide. When the walker asked about a flexible arrangement, I explained the free tour policy and offered an optional private arrangement only after it was requested. Participation was entirely voluntary; the free group tour remained unchanged, with no fixed fee requested. Regarding the Thursday tour, I noted it depended entirely on total bookings. As there were none, the tour could not take place. For clarity, the booking was made under “Jubilee”, while the review later appeared under “Jub”. This is provided solely for record accuracy and transparency. I am committed to clear, transparent communication and providing all walkers with accurate information. The free group tour is always available when the minimum participant requirement is met. Gracias por dejar su comentario. Para futuros walkers, quisiera aclarar los hechos de manera transparente, basándome en la comunicación documentada. Este es un tour grupal gratuito, que solo se realiza cuando se alcanza el número mínimo de participantes. En la fecha indicada, hubo únicamente una reserva, por lo que el tour no pudo llevarse a cabo. Esto no fue una cancelación por parte del guía, sino que simplemente no se cumplió el requisito mínimo para formar el grupo. Durante nuestra comunicación, el walker preguntó sobre un plan flexible y otras opciones. En respuesta, expliqué claramente la política del tour grupal gratuito y—solo a solicitud directa del walker—ofrecí una opción flexible opcional. Esta alternativa fue totalmente voluntaria; el tour grupal gratuito permaneció sin cambios y no se solicitó ningún pago obligatorio. Con respecto al tour del jueves, aclaré que su realización dependía del total de reservas. Lamentablemente, ese día tampoco hubo reservas, por lo que el tour grupal no se realizó. Para mayor transparencia, la reserva se hizo originalmente bajo el nombre “Jubilee”, mientras que la reseña apareció posteriormente bajo “Jub”. Esto se menciona únicamente para asegurar la exactitud del registro y no afecta al tour en sí. Sigo comprometido con una comunicación clara y transparente, y con proporcionar información fiable a todos los walkers antes de su tour. El tour grupal gratuito está siempre disponible cuando se alcanza el número mínimo de participantes, y los walkers pueden tomar decisiones informadas sin presiones.

Not enough members for the tour

Response from YaoDema Guide
Dear Michael, Thank you for your feedback. For future travelers: as stated on the tour page, this is a guided team tour designed for groups, and the tour usually runs with a minimum number of participants. On the day before the tour, bookings were below the required minimum, so I contacted you in advance and offered a flexible arrangement to help keep your plans on track, similar to the options mentioned on the tour page. I did not receive a reply before the tour, despite being available to assist. All arrangements depend on the actual conditions on the day, as noted in the tour description. This is to clarify that the situation was caused by group booking requirements, not by anything on my end.

Yao Dema is a very humorous and knowledgeable guide. He lives and loves Chonqing. If you’re looking for not only a guide but a leader to show you the city, you’re well advised to book the tour!
