    CROATIA: beautiful country. Dubro, Split, ...Montenegro (Kotor, Perast, etc. wonderful cities. A warning: in Kotor do not rent the first taxi boat that appears, we were victims of a scam, the company called: Lady. Another curiosity: It is very expensive to park in tourist areas, try to look for places where they do not charge, the prices are abusive in relation to the base salary of the people there.

  • An absolutely fantastic guide and an absolutely fantastic experience

    I had Lynn showing me Shanghai for two full days. With her help and knowledge I saw and did things I would never have done by myself. She even tailor made the tour to suite my interests. I am going back to Shanghai again soon and I will certainly make sure I will book Lynn ahead of time. Thank you Lynn.

    After a week of touring the historical sites in Beijing and Xian, China, a shopping excursion in Shanghai was fun. Tour was run by a very knowledgeable guide and included a formal tea service in a tea shop where different teas were sampled. Followed by some free time to shop at one of the many street shopping areas before having lunch at a traditional Chinese restaurant, which was included as part of the tour. The highlight was an extended shopping time to shop, haggle and bargain at one of the most popular and busy shopping villages in Shanghai. Bring your best haggling skills because they will surely be tested! Definitely a fun experience!

  • An Excellent Tour!

    My group of Get Away Girlfrieds’ ended a wonderful trip in Shanghai by having a private all day tour. Our tour with Cindy and Lynn was outstanding and full of interesting historical sites and adventures. We loved the traditional Tea Ceremony. We also went to two fantastic shopping adventures and shopped until we could not shop anymore. Thank you for making our special and personalized tour exactly what we wanted.
