I wasn't sure if this tour would be interesting but Bill was a wonderful guide and shared so much history and context that I thoroughly enjoyed the whole time. Extra points for finding me something vegetarian to eat!

We are a three-generational family group and i speak for all of us when i say that this was the best trip ever. We all enjoyed iit so much. From pick-up in a super-duper high tech taxi to the tour of the wonderful old water village conducted by our fabulous guide Bill, to our traditional meal of dumplings, everything was seamlessly organised and executed. We all recommend this tour 100 percent. Many thanks, Bill, u r a true star.

Although this was 1 year ago, my wife and I would like to say that the tour guide (I think he is called Bill) was very helpful, speak fluent English, good knowledge about the tour and don't mind to go an extra mile to do his job. He is highly recommended.
