We had an amazing tour, lived up to expectations. Food was fantastic as was the experience. We are big eaters and found ourselves full and content :-). Other than the lovely walks in between the venues, we liked how the tour took us from local / basic places to 5 star restaurants, so a full experience.
Kurt & TJ were young and energetic, bringing us on a food walk and sharing interesting anecdotes about China along the way!
