Q.
How far in advance do reservations need to be made?
A. At least 7 days notice is recommended in order for your
reservation to be confirmed. Our tours are often full. Once you
have
submitted your reservation, you will receive a reply from us within
48 hours.
Q.
How many are usually on the daily tour?
A. Anywhere from 6 to a 20 guests. We try to limit our group
size to ensure that our guests see and hear everything on the
tour.
Q.
What is the walk like? Are there hills?
A. The walk is a very leisurely stroll that cover less than half
a
mile from start to finish. There are a few inclines while on tour
but
guests of all ages find the slopes on Chinatown accessible. The
walk
is handicapped accessible with the exception of the visit to a
temple. If stairs are a problem for you, please let us know and
we
can visit an alternate temple which has elevator access.
Q.
Should I leave a tip at the restaurant? Should I tip the tour
guide?
A. The tips at the restaurant are included, but tips to the tour
guides are not. Gratuity to the tour leader is at your discretion
and
always appreciated.
Q.
Do I have time to shop while on tour?
A. Its hard to resist all the great bargains in Chinatown,
and you
may purchase fortune cookies at the factory, refreshments at the
herbal pharmacy, and anything else that interests you at the
places we visit. However, because we want to show you as much
as
possible, we suggest that you set aside your personal shopping
at the
end of the tour or luncheon. To assist you, ask us to email you
our
Insiders Guide to Restaurants/Shopping, updated yearly.
Everyone
gets a copy at the end of the tour.
Q.
Does the tour include everything listed on the tour info page?
A. Two hours is not enough time to do all that's listed. The choice
of sites and time spent is dependent on your interest and our
ability to fit it all in. If there is something of particular
interest to you, please let us know before you arrive.
