A fulfilling and efficient experience - We had a great time! I was visiting my girlfriend who was in China for the summer and we wanted to learn about the history of Nanjing. Our driver and our tour guide Fred were both great. Fred was very knowledgeable about the whole area and gave us a great understanding of the overall history of the area and a lot of niche facts. We specifically liked how efficient the travel was, as soon as we were done with one site, the drive picked us up at the exit and we were on to the next (while not feeling rushed). Fred did a great job of fitting in all 5 places we wanted to go (ming tomb, sun yatsen, nanjing memorial, jiming temple, chaotian palace) and get us back to our train on time. Over great experience!

Awesome guide - Knowledgeable guide. Excellent English. The schedule is very flexible. In addition to a selection of the listed sites, we saw the Memorial Hall of the Nanjing Massacre, which is worth seeing. However, it's extremely disturbing, as you might imagine, so be prepared. We skipped the Xiaoling Tomb in order to have time for the Memorial Hall, but if we had it back we would have skipped the Confucian Temple Area, which is essentially modern.

A must see for understanding the history of Nanjing and China. - My guide was Fred, who spoke great English and was very knowledgeable about not only the places we visited, but Fred has worldly knowledge as well. The history was fascinating and Fred could answer any questions on it. I fully recommend the tour and maybe you might be lucky as I was to get my great guide Fred.

Amazing Private/Personalised Tour of Nanjing! - I very much enjoyed my time experiencing a few of the major attractions of Nanjing with Francis. From prompt pickup at the agreed time, which I had to alter at the last minute due to a late arrival in Nanjing the night before, right through the day Francis put in an amazing effort to help me make the most of my one free day in the city. He was very knowledgeable of the history of the city, the cultural significance of the places we visited, and was able to answer every question I had about the location we were in or object we were looking at. I learned a lot in the time I spent with Francis and would do it again any day. I hope to bring my family back to China one day and Nanjing will be one of the cities we visit and hopefully spend some more time with Francis touring this very special city!

Amazing tour to discover the city! - The tour was a delightful dive into Nanjing's rich past as a former capital of China and its important sites. The guide was extremely knowlegable about the history and culture of the city. Even the stories we already knew came to life with the rich details we learned there The guide and driver were curteous and punctual, we barely had to wait at all in all stops. The tour was a great way to explore the important tourist sites in Nanjing in a single day I highly recommend it for anyone who wishes to explore Nanjing in a single day
