Reviews
The Klook team was very helpful and responsive. There are a lot of interesting tours in Klook but there were places I would like to skip. This would entail a private tour. After reading about Chongqing, I thought it wasn't the type of city you can map out on your own with its interesting architecture and multi level roads. I booked a consultation which was free. They answered all my questions so I ended up booking a private tour with another friend. Our tour guide Alice was a very cheerful, responsive and attentive young lady. She led us to different sites; telling stories about each area and encouraged us to try different flavors of Chongqing along different food streets. We were 2 females so it was a treat that our driver was female too. It felt comfortable. I would recommend Klook to friends wanting hassle free arrangements and if you get a chance to have Alice as your guide, you will also have extra fun. Thank you Klook and Alice for letting us experience Chongqing stress free!
Enjoyable even though there were stairs everywhere. Overall, everything was okay during our time here. All the kids loved it and were happy. Thanks, Klook.
Alice was a wonderful tour guide. She was energic and knowledge about the area! She was also flexible about the schedule to fit in what we wanted. Overall both Alice and the driver was a great pair of guides.
The driver was very considerate and always proactively helped open and close doors. Our tour guide, Karen, was very friendly, adjusted the itinerary based on the actual situation, was easy to communicate with, great to chat with, and even proactively helped with things outside of the itinerary. Highly recommended!
