A little tiring but it was worth it. A jam-packed itinerary covered many points of interest and tourist attractions in three days. Our tour guide, Joey, was organized, well-informed, and friendly. Driver Mr. Wang was courteous and considerate. Over all, it was a great experience, I will definitely sign up other tours offered by your company in the future.
