We had a wonderful time with Lisa and our driver Mr Fu.
We were picked up from the airport in a van, which was a relief as we had a lot of luggage and were worried about it all fitting.
From the airport we went to the Longmen Grotto. Lisa was very knowledgable and the carvings were amazing. We went to a local restaurant which we really enjoyed.
We actually dropped past Lisa's apartment after the airport and she kindly showed us in. It was interesting to see how the local's live.
Then back to our Hotel (Christians) which was incredible with fantastic service. Lisa assisted with the check in as English doesn't seem to be spoken too much in China.
Next day was the Shaolin Temple. A big highlight for me as I have been involved in kung fu for many years. Lisa made sure we made it to the show on time and we spent a fascinating 3 hours here.
Everywhere we went our driver Mr Fu was waiting to collect us at the closest and most convenient location.
We were dropped at the airport and once again Lisa assisted with check in which was very much appreciated.
I would not hesitate in recommending China travel Depot. In fact, I wouldn't want to travel in China without their assistance. I feel we got to see far more in the time we had by having Lisa as our guide. The local knowledge and convenience of being driven everywhere made the trip a breeze.
Kind regards,
