This is the one to do

Jane is an amazing tour guide. She was great at explaining the history of each location we visited and provided some interesting facts along the way. If you've only got time to do one tour - this is the one to do!

Wonderful

Jane is an amazing guide! I was the only guest, but she did the tour anyway, and we had a wonderful time together! It felt like travelling back in time: from the Opium Wars to the 1920s and beyond. I loved it so much! We even had a Tai Chi lesson in a park, which made the experience even more special. Thank you so much, Jane!
