I was visiting Suzhou with several work colleagues that arrived before me. I had booked this with one of them and she had done another tour the day before. Lulu did a great job of helping us choose places to visit she hadn’t seen yet, helping us stay cool in the heat, avoiding crowds, helping us shop and enjoy a wonderful day in Suzhou. We learned so much in a way that was very enjoyable. This was an excellent experience and highly recommended.
Linda was the best tour guide ever!

This was an excellent tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. It was very interesting. The guide customized the trip based on our interest and the time we had. For example, she brought us to a more child friendly garden where our daughter could climb rocks and have a bit of fun.
Sudden trip? No problem!
