We were very keen to visit Nanjing and the Massacre Memorial. Thanks to Sam, we were able to make that happen; we wouldn't have managed it without her. She helped us get the tickets and accompanied us to the memorial. She spent a whole week—day after day—working to secure them. Sam is incredibly professional, friendly, and quick to respond to emails. I would certainly recommend her services.

A Last-Minute Trip to Nanjing Made Perfect by Sam
I booked a guide last minute for my spontaneous Nanjing trip. Sam was the fastest to respond among my AI recommendations, and I was thrilled she was available!
I originally only planned to visit the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, but Sam shared fascinating insights into Nanjing’s history and modern China along the way. With extra time, she even took me to the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, where I learned about the great Ming Founder and Ming Dynasty history.
Thank you, Sam, for making my trip so memorable!

A Memorable Day in Nanjing with Our Guide, Sam
We had an absolutely fantastic day exploring Nanjing, thanks to our wonderful guide, Sam. She designed a truly interesting and well-paced one-day itinerary for us that was filled with unique experiences.
We were also very impressed with the comfortable car she arranged, and our driver was incredibly polite and professional, making our journey smooth and relaxing.
Sam took us to the magnificent Yuejiang Tower, where we were treated to breathtaking views of the spectacular Yangtze River Bridge and the mighty Yangtze River itself. Walking along the ancient Nanjing City Wall was like stepping back in time, and the evening performance at the Zhonghua Gate was absolutely brilliant—a perfect way to end the day!
What truly set Sam apart was her profound knowledge of the history and culture of her hometown. Her passion and expertise allowed us to see a side of Nanjing that we would never have discovered on our own. Thank you, Sam, for showing us the soul of this incredible city!

We found Sam through her website and she replied almost instantly. We were initially worried about the language barrier, but her English is absolutely flawless—communication was effortless.
The 3-day itinerary was perfectly organized. Every morning, Sam and the driver were waiting for us right on time at our hotel. What really stood out was her deep knowledge and passion. Her explanations of the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum were fascinating; we learned so much about Nanjing history and could truly feel how much she loves her hometown.
We highly recommend Sam to anyone visiting Nanjing!

How to start, what a couple of weeks. I had the most amazing time in Nanjing made even better by using Samantha as a tour guide. The itinerary she arranged covered some amazing places, her knowledge and understanding of the history of these places really enhanced the visits. After the two weeks I really felt I had left a friend behind.

Thank you so much for the wonderful 2-day tour, Sam!
My family and I had an amazing time in Nanjing—we truly enjoyed every historical site you took us to. The food at Chef Queen was absolutely delicious too! What impressed us the most was your fluent English, your caring nature, and the genuine love and enthusiasm you have for your hometown.
We really hope to visit Nanjing again someday!

We travelled to China to visit schools for our son, focusing on the cities of Nanjing, Hangzhou, and Suzhou. Samantha was extremely helpful throughout the process. She helped us research and get in touch with the international and bilingual schools we were interested in, and efficiently scheduled appointments for us. She also created a well-structured visit itinerary for each day, which was especially useful while we were travelling between Suzhou and Hangzhou. Samantha is highly efficient, professional, and well-organised. She also kindly interpreted for us at schools where the teachers were not very fluent in English. We truly appreciate all the help you have given us.

Samantha is an excellent local guide. She is very knowledgeable and does her research about the places we visited. Her English speaking communication skills are excellent and she enthusiastically shares her knowledge of the local culture and the places we visited. She comes well prepared and is able to think on her feet and offer other options if need be. Her personality makes her easy to talk to, patient and listens to the needs of her clients and is open to suggestions and able to adjust the itinerary. Yet she manages time well, making sure we get to our destinations on time.
The most amusing part of the tour, however, was visiting the seven incredibly luxurious restrooms in Deji Plaza. Exploring them felt like walking through a theme park.

My colleague and I came to Nanjing for work, and we had one free day to explore the city. We were so lucky to have Samantha as our tour guide. She met us on time at our hotel and drove us to the places we wanted to visit. She was very flexible and quick to adjust to any sudden changes. She also found a great Indian restaurant for me, since I am Muslim.

Thanks so much for your company. Even though it`s a half-day tour, I enjoyed the local history, especially the ferry we took on the Yang'tze river, it was cool and fun.
