We were a group of family members visiting shanghai and found this wonderful tour to Tongli and Suzhou. Our guide Xin was professional and skillful and had a lot of nice historical stories to tell about these historical places we visited. It felt like we learned a lot thing about this part of Chinese culture and history in addition to the beautiful scenes. The tour arrangement was great and the routes were excellent. Although there were many tourists around these tourist spots we almost always found us among ourselves in peaceful environments.

I loved the trip to the cute Tongli water town. Full of history and interesting details about how the bureaucracy worked at the time. Then we went to Suzhou and got marvelled by the gardens and the old street. Our guide Mary was very knowledgeable and had always nice fun-facts about the place and the society of ancient China to spice up the tour. She was also kind and professional. Thanks Mary!

Tongli was beautiful and authentic. The lunch in Suzhou was delicious and the humble administrators garden was breathtaking! I very much enjoyed my guide Daisy who was very generous with her time and advice! We fit in some shopping on the side as well!!

This was our second trip with Daisy as our guide, she was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the trip. We’d chosen this following a city tour as a direct contrast to the experience of Shanghai and were not disappointed. First stop was Tongli where we explored the narrow streets, taking in the sights and smells from local restaurants and shops before a river cruise. We then headed to Suzhou town for a traditional lunch then to the UNESCO listed Humble Administrators Garden via rickshaw which the teenagers loved! It’s a full day trip from Shanghai taking around 2hrs in the car, both daisy and the driver made the day hassle free which was appreciated given the heat and thunderstorms on the return trip.
