We had such a great experience on this guided tour with Sunny! She was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful throughout the whole day. She explained so many interesting things about the places we visited, as well as Chinese culture, history, and everyday life. We learned a lot and really enjoyed listening to her explanations and spending the day with her. She made the whole experience even more enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommended! Sunny, you are a star!!

What a wonderful day. My guide Ling Ling sunny and driver Yang were fantastic. I learnt so much about Chinese culture today. My guide was so friendly patient and kind and although we don’t speak the same language I know that our driver has a wonderful sense of humour and is a kind and gentle man. Thank you both for making my first visit to China such a wonderful experience.
