Vivien was an excellent tour guide who smoothly took us through all the highlights of the museum over the course of 3 hours. On our own, we would not have been able to appreciate the rich cultural and historical context of the collections, but Vivien was the ideal guide and went above and beyond to make our visit smooth and comfortable. Definitely recommend this tour to anyone passing through Kunming!
