Visite privée d'une demi-journée à Pékin: temple Lama, temple Confucius, hutong WuDaoYing

I loved the walk. I went with Kira, she has a lot of history knowledge and her Spanish is perfect. She even helped me with the apps that here are different. We went to the Temple of the Lama and Confucius. We walked through Houtong. All very well explained and in time. The two temples deserve to be in the Beijing must see of every traveler. The woodong is also full of good comins. Super recommended

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of The National Museum of China. We were picked up in our hotel lobby by Tom, our guide, who very quickly made us feel warm and welcomed. Tom was extremely knowledgeable of Chinese history and with that came a personality we quickly felt at ease and comfortable with - as if we had known each other for years! Tom quickly got us into the Museum and began seeing what is without question the ancient history of a magnificent culture. The museum is massive and is more than one can take in all in one day. The museum is filled with incredible relics and artifacts as you would expect. As a westerner, our knowledge of Chinese history was limited. Tom did a great job of taking us through this palace of historical objects and exhibits and focused on the most significant. That in itself, is an art. There was so much we had seen in books and online but when seeing something and you’re told - “this is ONLY 2,500 years old” and you think that is 10x the age of your own country it is mind boggling. Tom’s mastery of the history provided so much more than a brief desecration of something, it included the context of the object, how it was used, how it was made, the technology…a great experience. A true test for me is when such a time flashes forward into today’s life. At a more personal level, the sharing of observations, experiences and life in general takes the engagement to another level. We like to gain insight into the guides life and we like to share a no filter view of our life in a western culture. This is where a connection is truly made and with Tom this was ever so easy. If you need a guide, Seek Tom’s personal assistance. You will be thankful you did. And, you, like the two of us will have a new friend. Thank you Tom for the magnify. Bruce & Amy

This was absolutely great half of the day in Beijing with private tour guide.It was pure pleasure to explore Lama Temple, Confucius Temple and WuDao Ying Hutong with William. Trip was personalized for me, addjusted to my needs and expectations..William is very knowledgeable tour guide, open and friendly person, gave me a lot of background and flavoir of buddism,Confucius ideas and how life looks like in WuDao Ying Hutong. If you expect customized way of sightseeing and professional and excellent tour guide, this trip is for you.

We had a great half day tour with Lindsay's guide. She is really good with a great knowledge of China's history. We could learn a lot from her. In addition, she helped us find a Pekin Duck restaurant and explained how we should ask for the dish.

We had the pleasure of engaging Ms. Kathy for another fantastic tour, this time to the Lama Temple, Confucius Temple, and the charming Wu Dao Ying Hutong on November 6th. Once again, Ms. Kathy exceeded all expectations and provided an incredible experience. Her depth of knowledge and enthusiasm for Beijing's culture and history made each stop on the tour feel special. At the Lama Temple, she explained the significance of Tibetan Buddhism in Beijing with such passion, and at the Confucius Temple, she brought Confucius’s teachings to life in a way that was both engaging and thought-provoking. The visit to Wu Dao Ying Hutong was a delightful contrast, where Ms. Kathy showed us a quieter, more local side of Beijing, sharing fascinating stories about the neighborhood’s history and culture. As always, Ms. Kathy's attention to detail was impeccable. She made sure the pace was just right giving us enough time to explore each site while also making sure I didn’t feel rushed. She was always willing to answer questions, share additional insights, thus making the experience feel personalized and relaxed. She’s genuinely attentive to what interests us, which makes her tours so enjoyable.
