We had Christine as our guide, from the time of pick up her warm smile and her welcoming nature was so refreshing after our last guide. It was a pity we had her only for a short time. She listened never promising, however doing her best to deliver the best out come, to our changing needs. She made sure our onward journey was going to be comfortable. We thank you for taking care of our group.
This tour was fantastic all due to Albert. He was very accommodating and very professional and not boring. He was generally for our best interest and navigated curve balls so well. You generally wants to make sure you have a great time. Can't recommend this to enough and Albert even more
Jessmine and our driver where fabulous! The 7.5 hour tour was delightful and we were whisked from location to location with ease and the car was waiting whenever we had completed a visit. We determined how long we were going to stay at any location. Jessmine was personable, professional and fun. She made the experience enjoyable and so comfortable for us. The driver was great and delivered us to every location in a safe manner abd he knew his way around Chongqing. Jessmine's English was very good. I'd highly recommend this tour. My friend and I would never have covered so many sights, in such comfort, within 7.5 hours! The included lunch was brilliant as we got to choose what we wanted to eat and the quality of the food was great and very tasty.
I definitely recommend the tour, without the help of someone who knows the city it would have been very difficult to travel each of the important places of the city on our own, in our case we had only one day to know the city and Crystal took us to all the top places, took incredible photos and the transfers were very quick and fast despite the traffic of the city
A very complete tour of Chongqing’s main points of interest. Jonathan knows a lot about the history of the country and full of very interesting facts and at least the whole tour.
We were very happy with the Private Customized Tour in Chongqing. The guide Crystal spoke excellent English and made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Even the day after the tour, she was still helpful with tips on places to visit. Truly worth it! Thank you for the fantastic day !!!
The experience in Chongqin and Wulong was amazing, the sights, the food and the people were incredible. Winnie was such an enthusiastic and wonderful guide she made me feel excited to be visiting her city. Wulong is a place you should not miss to visit, very close to Chongqin and with amazing views.
Our guide David was extremely flexible, immediately realized our wishes! Very friendly and told us a lot of very interesting information about the city, culture and history. Highly recommended!
We spent one whirlwind afternoon with Christine in Chongqing and got an amazing tour through the many layers of this huge city. My teenage kids were deeply impressed, and enjoyed Christine’s shortcuts and fun Instagramable locations.
John was our guide in Chongqing and contributed a lot to have an interesting and enjoyable stay. Very knowledgeable he told as many stories at the stone carves. Friendly, flexible, kind was the best for the occasion. Thank you John.
