We were in Huangshan from Dec.10 to Dec. 13, 2008 and we felt lucky to have booked your company’s services through the help of Ms. Mary ma who was very resourceful and managed to ensure that we had the exciting tour we expected.
We took a private tour of Mount Huangshan for two days with Bill Wang, who was our local guide. He was a wonderful guide, very polite and courteous as well as knowledgeable about all the fantastic mountain. Our driver was also very nice, a very safe driver and we were very comfortable in the van. Thank you to all! We shall use your company’s services again. And of course, we will recommend your excellent service to our friends.
With best regards
