Great time!!

Published on Dec, 2024

This was my first (of two) bookings with Sunny for my trip. It was a breeze working with Sunny. Communication was clear and she helped to handle all the logistics like clockwork. My guide, Michelle, was an excellent and a treasure trove of information especially in flora and fauna, as well as Chinese customs. I had a really enjoyable time and would definitely recommend in exploring the ‘Venice of the west’.

One Day Private Suzhou Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

I contacted Sunny Tours several months before our visit to Shanghai. The response to my enquiries was prompt; within 48 to 72 hours. I wanted a private tour for 5 adults starting from Shanghai to Suzhou by Hi-speed rail. We wish to visit Suzhou for a day 10:00am to 4:30pm; then return by minivan to Shanghai. Sunny gave me good advice for itinerary. I had previously research on price for such a tour and Sunny from the start quoted me a fair price for the tour, guide and minivan. This is a fair and trustworthy tour company with good English communication skill. I would use Sunny Tour again if I visit Shanghai in future.

Memorable Suzhou Trip

Published on Nov, 2024

This trip is fantastic. Lulu is an excellent guide who took great care of our needs. She is very knowledgeable and shared a wealth of knowledge with us. Such was fantastic and Lulu made sure the food was suitable for all of us. Last but no least, Lulu was very patient as we have elderly in the group. Highly recommend Lulu and Sunny Tour!

Highly recommend this Suzhou and Zhouzhuang tour.

Published on Sep, 2024

Lulu our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Suzhou and Zhouzhuang. Would definitely recommend the tour and Zhouzhuang water town.

Special Suzhou

Published on May, 2024

It was our first time to Suzhou and Lulu was an excellent guide. We visited Tongli water town in the morning and enjoyed a very pleasant boat ride through the canals. Lulu provided us with a lot of interesting historical information, and gave us many great suggestions for places to eat and special Suzhou gifts to bring home. We spent the afternoon at a beautiful Chinese garden and then relaxed with a cup of tea at a wonderful Pipa music show. Thanks very much Lulu for also helping us find the perfect souvenir - a fan with Chinese calligraphy of a special and personal poem. A very memorable day; we will treasure this for a long time!
