I had a blast with this tour! The trip was made better by my hospitable and kind guide, Vivian. She was incredibly knowledgeable providing a detailed history of the origins and conception of prominent historical sites and locations. This provided much needed context and gave me newfound appreciation of the places I visited and became more than just a "picture-taking tour". Vivi was kind enough to show me the best places to take pictures and helped me take some background shots as well. U was able to better immerse n myself in the culture
Dear Charles Thank you very much for your great review, and we hope to service for you again in the near future. /AvatarGo Team.
