Mary Ma,
I would like to personally say that I thought that John and Kathy were first class in the way they
treated my wife and I on our recent side tour to Luoyang. They have a strong sense of punctuality. They understand what we wanted. We found they were extremely polite, curteuous and knowledgable. I think they are an asset to your company. Kathy handled our arrival at Luoyang Railway Station superably. The driver - John was very professional and drove very smoothly. I will do recommend your tour company to our friends and colleages.
Once again a big thank you.
