From the very first moment of booking, Mike was incredibly nice, fast, and super clear with all the details. Also, our driver, Frank, was absolutely charming throughout the entire day. He was constantly making sure we were doing well and helping us with everything we needed (tickets, food, advice...) 100% recommended!
My family and I had a great experience! Local guide Melody was very helpful and knowledgeable! She was also very conscientious and considerate, and always ensuring that our needs were met. She was able to bring to live the history and the various places that we visited. She also accompanied us throughout which was greatly appreciated.
David Wong our driver was incredible! He made the experience very enjoyable and was very knowledge about his home town Beijing! We highly recommend David if you’re looking to book with this company and we look to returning again with our friends.
I have travelled 2 days with a lovely lady who drived me to every place . He name is Selina . She was very helpful and cooperative and helped me to cover my targets and even shopping. Literally I felt I’m not away from home as I was with this lovely lady Selina . I highly recommend her for all travelers
We had a great day - Lily did a great job of tailoring our itinerary to meet the needs of our little kids. Would highly recommend!
Jim was a wonderful driver/guide, he made sure we were well looked after and was very understanding when our two year old was grumpy! We got to see everything we wanted and had a wonderful day! Thankyou Jim x
I recommend this tour 10000 times over!! The forbidden city and great wall tour was amazing. The tour guide picked us up directly from our hotel in a fancy electric vehicle. The car had snacks and water for the trip. The tour guide was super professional, very patient, so personable, very informative and spoke very good English (which is uncommon in beijing). He listened to our wants and needs and was flexible around our schedule. After the tour we also booked various other tours through this operator - red theater acrobatics show and dumpling Making Class and tour of Beijing shopping spots, aswell as providing many helpful recommendations for food. The tour guide even included a tea ceremony FOR FREE! This is a one-stop concerige service for all the tours you may need in beijing! Soo convenient! The tour operator was so kind and even arranged our airport transfer and when my wechat pay was not working helped us book a taxi and also spoke to various restaraunts in Chinese to help us book dinner reservations. I couldnt be more grateful for the ease you provided us on our trip which was our first time in China! 1000/10!!! I couldnt recommend this tour operator more!!! Thank you!!!
We had a fantastic day with Melody! It was an incredible experience exploring Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall. Melody was exceptionally knowledgeable and spoke flawless English, making the entire day both engaging and seamless. We highly recommend this tour — absolutely 5+ stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
