From Greece to China. - We are from Greece and for the first time we visited China with my elderly mother. We were very lucky to find Alex as a tour guide in Xi'an. With great kindness and patience he showed us the most beautiful sights. He told us important historical references about the antiquities and Buddhist temples. He also gave us a brief historical overview of the ancient and modern history of China. A friendship developed that we will never forget.
Alex is an excellent person and our trip was wonderful.

Amazing Tour - I was always fascinated by Chinese culture. This was an absolutely amazing experience in Xi'an with my guide Alex. He was informative and obviously knew a lot about Xi'an city and made such an amazing tour. He was super funny, friendly, and very personable. Though the tour was quite long it didn’t feel that way because we were having so much fun. We saw very historical places and it didn’t feel too tourist-y. The best thing ever, it's local cuisine and street food. feel free ask him where to eat, and I would absolutely recommend him!
