Strolling through the Summer Palace

A very relaxing and interesting day. Our guide Aaron is very knowledgeable, engaging and personable. A well paced excursion that included a very nice lunch in a local restaurant, a stroll through Hutong district as well as the Summer Palace and Lama Temple.

Miss Lily went above and beyond at every turn even accompanying us far past the tour to introduce us to more Chinese culture and heritage. Would recommend to anyone!
