Starting from the booking process till the actual trip, all was excellent! Julia was very helpful and we could change some details according to my schedule, and she can give good ideas. The driver - Mr. Bai - is one of the most serious drivers I’ve met, very professional and with a lot of patience and very careful to details. The car was perfect, large, clean and very good quality. The trip? It was so amazing - that I will remember for a lifetime! You really have to visit this side of the country - it is more than beautiful!!! Thank you
