Supurb services I've ever had. - Alena is responsive. Mary is the best guide I have ever met. Her service was seamless. She helped us finding a restaurant and also given us all information we needed. I would come back and prefer to have her in our trip again next time. Not to mention the driver also flexible and very polite. We are satisfied.

Fantastic day with a wonderful guide! - The whole tour was top notch! Our guide Snow, met us promptly at our hotel. Our transportation and driver were both excellent! The tour of this ancient town was very interesting. Snow told us many stories and details about the town and its history. We did a gondola ride through “China’s Little Venice” as well. Snow was wonderful as a guide, talking to the vendors for us at the market and helping us choose a phenomenal place for lunch. Her English was exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Snow!

Zhujiajiao- A must do! - Our tour was with Kalvin and I'm sorry to say I forgot our driver's name but we found both to be extremely good at their jobs. The drive to the water town was comfortable and safe. Kalvin was extremely knowledgeable about our sights and China in general. He explained about all the sights and symbolism of doorways, bats, baby dragons, etc. Kalvin's English was easy to understand but then again this man is a very well trained guide. If, I ever take a long tour around China I would definitely ask for him. My husband and I very much enjoyed the tour to Zhujiajiao. The lunch was very good also.
