We took this tour on our first day in Beijing. We loved the tour of the Hutongs as well as the calligraphy lesson and pedicab ride. Our guide Lucy was truly wonderful, she met us at our hotel gave us a great tour, even helped us select some tea as a gift to bring home. She was kind and friendly and very easy to understand. At the end of the tour she helped us call a cab to get back to hotel. Easy and fun after a long day of travel.
