About me:

Hi, this is Samantha, you can call me Sam. I was born and raised in Nanjing, very familiar with Nanjing attractions, Nanjing culture, history, food, places that not many people know, and local people`s life here. I can give you advice and travel tips as well. I have been providing my services to foreigners in Nanjing on a part-time basis for 6 years.

- I could give you some suggestions about hotel conditions, locations, services, whether the staff speak English when you choose a hotel.

- I can pick you up at the Airport or Train Station so you wont feel nervous if this is your first time to Nanjing and dont know much about Chinese language.

- If you need to book train/flight tickets i might can help you too.

- I have a nice private car (KIA) and mini van (BuickGL8) with experienced drivers (my father or my uncle, they both driving car safely for more than 20 years), cars are available for rent, cheaper than any car rental company.

- I could be your shopping assistant or assistant of living in Nanjing, such as Nanjing local food, supermarket, open markets, electrical appliances, cheap but good quality DVDs, where to go for nightlifes, thearters or so.

- I also be able to travel to Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Zhenjiang, Yangzhou, cities that around Nanjing, we could take trains or long distance buses.

I would be glad to be your tour guide in Nanjing, contact me if you need any help or Nanjing travel info. :)

Tour Date - March 16, 2013   If you want to see and understand Nanjing, you will be in good hands with Samantha.  While planning a   visit with my son who is studying in Hangzhou, he suggested a trip to Nanjing for its historical interest.   After contacting Samantha via email about a one day tour she asked what our interests were - I replied history.  Samantha came through - it was a fascinating and educational day.  While my son and I could have gone to all the same sites on our own, we would not have seen or understood half of what we saw with Samantha --- she helped provide the perspective to bring it to life.        Thank you Samantha.     ---------------- P.

My work associate and I had a great trip with Samantha's help. She met us at the train station, otherwise we may have been a little lost not speaking any Chinese, even after our flight got canceled from the night before.  She got us to our hotel and helped check in and then showed us around the area of our hotel so we would know places to go for the week while we worked.  The next weekend she took us to some excellent dining places, Chinese food as well as an excellent Korean Barbecue restaurant.  Best was the noodles!!!  She even went out of her way to find us Americans "COLD" beer as apparently warm beer is the norm.  We also went to come cultural sights which put some things in perspective.  She then finished it up with getting us to the airport and checked in.  What a wonderful service.

Don't hesitate to use Samantha, well worth it.
