Excerpt: For car rental, I recommend Manager Wang Jingli from Gansu Hengchang Free Travel. He is very enthusiastic in service, responds quickly via WeChat, and is almost always available at a moment's notice, online all the time. Driver Master Zhao is also very warm-hearted, very kind throughout the trip, and has become our good friend on the mainland. I hope that for my next trip to the northwest of the mainland, I can continue to travel with Master Zhao as a companion.
