There punctuality was excellent there understanding of what we wanted was good and we found them extremely polite, curteuous and knowledgable and were an asset to your company. Tony handled our arrival at the docks superably as we;; as pur deperture at the airport. Sophia looked after is in Bejing and we found her an excellent guide.
Once again a big thank you.
