Anna took very good care of me. She was caring, respectful and fun. We had a wonderful time biking along the Yulong River and seeing the sights. She was an outstanding guide and I would recommend her as a guide. She spoke very good English. We had a great day together.

The pearl tower is the staple of Shanghai. when you are in it, that means you cannot see it; if that makes sense. If you are only visiting for a short time, you do not have to go inside the tower or to the top. Also the dinner was 3 stars at max. The food was not that great, and the rotation speed of the restaurant was very slow for obvious reasons. This is one of those bookings you make just to say that you did it, not so much to enjoy for a long period of time. If I can redo it, I would choose not to eat here and pick another place in Shanghai to eat.

DO NOT use this tour company if you are not from China. Our experience was nothing but a huge disaster. We ended up paying to literally experience the land on our own and get completely lost and we were not able to enjoy the beauty the rice terraces had to offer. The tour company only gave back half our money after all the struggles we went through and many many emails later.

Delicious and delicate. The food in Guangzhou is the best. The old town is worth visiting if you want to know history and cultures of Guangzhou. Travelling in Guangzhou is not so difficult except for some language problems until recently the GZ government has had an interpretation hotline(+8620960169), which can provide great service for public affairs and government services. I used several times taking taxi and asking for directions, the interpreters are quite professional.
