Miss Daisy was our guide for the day and she did an amazing job from the time we met her at the cruise port until we returned back in the evening. She adapted to our schedule and even helped us meet up with a friend in Beijing! It was a memorable day.
An amazing day in Beijing with our guide Miss Lily, it was a perfect tour. We were picked up from port and driven to Train Station where we caught the bullet train to Beijing (1 hr)- a good experience- very comfortable seats, drinks snacks and speeds up to 374kmph. Then a private car ride to The Forbidden City and Lily gave us a 2 hour tour telling us about each building and the history and rules of the various Dynasties, very interesting. It was lovely seeing many girls and some men dressed in the national costume, beautiful. A delicious beef noodle dish for lunch. We popped into some shops so we could get souvenirs. Then the drive back to train station via Tiananmen square, a fantastic day. We are elderly and Lily looked after us making things easy for us, taking the easy paths and ensuring at all times we were comfortable. Miss Lily is so kind knowledgeable and friendly. Miss Sunflower who helped arrange this tour was very nice and communicative, a great help. Would recommend this tour.
The only things we visited we Tianamen square and the Forbidden City. It is a l9ng travel distance for so few stops.
My husband and I were picked up at our cruise ship (Oceania) by Miss Lina and a driver and taken to Beijing’s Forbidden City by car and train. We walked through the Forbidden City and were told of its fascinating history and culture. Her English was perfect! She took us all the way back to to ship when the tour was finished. We would gladly return and ask for her again. In fact we are thinking of sending her our granddaughter who speaks Mandarin for a week when she is in high school. Miss Lina was very friendly and very informative and we would recommend this tour to everyone, especially if you have a limited time in Beijing. We saw the best part!
The day we spent with Sunflower in Beijing was one of the highlights of our trip. The particulars were easily worked out via email. We were picked up promptly at our ship and transported to the bullet train, where she had secured us first class seats. We were taken to Tiannamnen Square and the Forbidden City, Sunflower was informative, knowledgeable and delightful. We got back to our ship on time, which is always a concern when taking a private tour. We highly recommend Sunflower Li!!!
Thank you Sunflower! We had a terrific day in Beijing. We were met at the port in Tianjin by our wonderful guide Sunflower. She escorted us by bullet train to Beijing where we spent the day exploring Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Sunflower was knowledgeable and a pure delight to be with. All planning was done seamlessly and she responded immediately to any questions, before, during and after the tour. We could not have asked for a better day!
Sunflower, our guide was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and we would recommend her tour. Port pickup, car to Tianjin and bullet train to Beijing had us there in good time, exactly as requested. A marvellous tour of Beijing, including the Forbidden City, and then a special lunch before returning to the port.
Thank you SUNFLOWER LI for your excellent tour in Beijing. You were very kind and the provider of excellent information, drinks snacks and such friendliness that we so much appreciated. The pick up from Tianjin cruise terminal was well timed and to be escorted from there back to there was a bonus. You are a very sweet and considerate person and looked after us very well. If ever we come back to Beijing we will certainly be in touch. SUPERB SERVICEXX
We booked this tour for two different days because we did not want to stay off the ship while we were docked in Tianjin. It was the best decision ever. Sunflower met us at the ship each morning and took us by bullet train to tour Beijin on the first day and then to the Great Wall on the second day. She was with us the whole time and dropped us off at the ship at the end of the day. It was long days but it was worth it to avoid transferring luggage and to be able to come back to the ship for dinner and our own bed. We were very very happy with this tour and would highly recommend it. Our only suggestion would be to upgrade to business class on the train (Sunflower will offer this now based on our experience.....it is worth the small price for the upgrade). Sunflower is the BEST. She is energetic and very sweet. We LOVED the tour and cannot say enough good things about it. She made our China experience the best and would highly recommend this tour or any tour that she would do for you. You won't be disappointed. This was the best tour experience we have ever had and that is coming from the experience of 100+ tours.
