Reviews
agency was responsible to contact me with driver's information the day before event. driver was also very friendly and helpful to ensure guests' safety to and fro destination. driver even helped to bring us umbrellas when we were stuck in a heavy rain at the show venue and gotten himself drenched. the performance was fantastic and definitely worth the ticket price and recommended everyone to catch it if travelling to Hangzhou because the cast was very professional to give their best performance even under the heavy rain!
The driver responded quickly and provided excellent pickup and drop-off services to our desired locations. The show itself was just okay.
