I had the absolute best time on this tour! Cathy was my guide and she was wonderful. She was so nice, fun, and knew everything about the island. I am so glad she was my guide! They picked and dropped me off directly from the airport which made everything easy. We toured the island, gardens, museum, and had the best day. This was the best way I could have spent my layover! I recommend this to anyone with a layover in Xiamen!

Our tour guide Adam is a professional tour guide who is very knowledgeable and has an in-depth understanding of the local customs, history and culture. Under his leadership, we had a deeper understanding of the small island of Gulangyu. Adam also took us out for lunch which was amazing. Overall, this trip is a great experience. If you have the opportunity to go to Gulangyu Island to find Adam, it will definitely be worth the price of admission. 👍

This layover tour was a very positive experience for me and highly recommended. It was my first time in China and I felt safe traveling alone at way pass 70 years old. Safety should be foremost for every traveler at any age. The tour operator took care of even minute details to make the tour very comfortable, personalize , and flexible. The car provided looks new with a personable and courteous driver. Water and fruits were provided for snacks. My flight arrived 2 hours later than the schedule tour so lunch was scrapped. But Instead I was given several boxes of pastries from the famous bakery in the island for me to take home and to give away as gifts. Its a good thing. The tour guide , Adam from Tulou Travel , speaks fluent English and very knowledgeable about Gulangyu Island and other interesting places to visit in Xiamen. He was enthusiastic about his job and gives a lot of insights about future travel in Xiamen. Gulangyu Islands is very historical and picturesque. Architecture is so diverse some places reminds me of Europe. There's a lot of walking to do and lots of places can only be reach by climbing up several flights of stairs. Trolleys are available though to those who are not inclined to walk. It's an experience worth taking .
