5.00Lulu was the most amazing guide! She was so friendly and experienced, and her English was excellent. She told us just enough info so we could appreciate all of Suzhou’s sites, but didn’t overwhelm us. I accidentally booked the wrong date, arrived in Suzhou on the wrong day, and Sunny had Lulu there to meet me within 20 minutes! Thanks to both of them for such flexibility! I highly recommend getting a guide for themSuzhou sites . I live in Shanghai but still find the Suzhou crowds pretty overwhelming. Lulu and Sunny are amazing, don’t hesitate to book with them!

5.00We had a wonderful trip to Suzhou with our guide LuLu. LuLu was very informative and willing to put together any itinerary we were interested in. Also since we have very limited Chinese it was so helpful that she spoke great English. I would travel with this group/LuLu again. Thanks for a great day in Suzhou!
