⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Beijing experience – Mr Guo & Jenny were fantastic We had an absolutely fantastic day in Beijing, and the whole experience was extremely well organised from beginning to end. Before the tour, Jenny contacted me promptly via WhatsApp with all the details and was incredibly helpful. She recommended that we arrange an earlier pickup to avoid the crowds at the Great Wall, which turned out to be excellent advice and made a real difference to our experience. A huge thank you also to Mr Guo, who was everything you could wish for from a driver and guide. He was incredibly kind, friendly and patient, with excellent English, and was always happy to explain things, answer our questions and make sure we were comfortable. He is also a very good and safe driver. Everything throughout the day ran smoothly and we never felt rushed, allowing us to simply enjoy Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Mutianyu Great Wall. Mr Guo was professional, knowledgeable, reliable and, above all, a genuinely lovely person. Together with Jenny’s excellent communication and organisation, they made our day in Beijing one we will always remember. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. A very well-deserved 5 stars and a huge thank you to both Mr Guo and Jenny! 🇨🇳⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My second visit in a few years with this tour. Expectations are never disappointed. Perfect organization, schedules studied in detail to avoid lines, and a very attentive guide (Jessica) who gave us a lot of information. We saw the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. Highly recommended!
Jack was great. Everything was perfectly as expected plus he helped with local food and shopping.
We went on our experience with Jack and he was an absolute pleasure. He shared all of the knowledge about the Great Wall and truly provided a wonderful VIP experience. I highly recommend
Jack was the best driver and guide!
Very nice trip. Jack was a good driver with good knowledge. Recommended
Our tours to the great Wall of China were cancelled due to weather conditions and we would have missed to visit it if the agency didn’t suggest to enter through another gate, which was the only one openes for limited time. I really appreciate it! In the end it didn’t rain much, our driver was kind, punctual and smiley and he drove carefullly
