Rita is amazing, extremely helpful and has very knowledgeable insights on China's history and culture. Very attentive and detailed. A memorable, Educational and fun trip under Rita's care. She also speaks well in English. Very fortunate to having Rita as our tour guide. Highly recommend this day tour to Suzhou.

A Wonderful Day

Published on Feb, 2024

Annie took me to some amazing photo stops despite my disability issues. Her English and cultural insights were invaluable.

Rita was awesome!

Published on Nov, 2019

We had a great time in Suzhou with Rita. She did a great job personalizing the tour and knew the best spots for photos. She had great recommendations for "off the beaten track" spots where it wasn't full of tourists too. What a great experience! She also took us to a fantastic lunch and helped us order delicious hotpot. All in all,a great experience and Rita obviously knows her stuff.

Great tour

Published on Sep, 2019

The tour to Suzhou went very well, Rita guided us through the city giving us plenty of interesting information and showed us great places (small garden, 2 watertowns and a silk fabric). Excellent day tour with private car. The local lunch was amazing. Thanks.
