Reviews
Detailed explanation of the attractions by tour guide Ms 林，efficient time management by her too. Food is satisfactory. Discipline group members.
The taxi transfer in Suzhou between the sites visited was not always smooth and some time was spent waiting for taxis. On one occasion we could not get a 6 seater ride and the 4 of us and the guide had to go in 2 cars. On the recommendation of locals we met, and the agreement of our guide, we replaced the temple visit with a visit to Tiger Hill. The visit here is highly recommended.
The tour guide went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment throughout the trip.
Our guide, Joyce is a wonderful tour guide. Very detailed in explaination of the tour and communicated with us well prior to the trip. She is very patience with what we want to do and make good recommendations too
小林 was giving the excellent service to us. Thank you 👍
Thank you to our guide for helping us plan the rest of our trip and for taking us to our destination. We'll cherish the wonderful memories.
Lunch 'Tong Dexing' noodles👍👍, if in addition to noodles, the package meal also includes some special snacks, it will be even more cost-effective and five-star👍👍! The tour guide's service attitude is very good! serious! care! careful! 👍👍👍 Worth recommending!
although I had signed up for an English tour the tour guide spoke mainly in Mandarin as we could understand Mandarin. While the tour guide was really knowledgeable about the history we would have preferred if we were driven around from our hotel and various parts of Suzhou.
The tour guide is professional and caring. He provided high quality of transfer and explained very clear on each scenic spots with full history story. We enjoyed the Suzhou tour with accompanied from our tour guide. However, the tour seems overpriced as there is no chattered transport in Suzhou.
2 itenary is change but no announce me , we going to silk factory but not in itenary
