5.00Well organized tour with wonderful knowledgeable and friendly guide- thanks Lee! The bus picked me up from the hotel and took us around to see the must see sights, as well as a delicious lunch stop. All admissions were included in the price, so there we nothing to worry about. There were also stops at some tourist retail points- very much loved the tea tasting! Be forewarned, these spots come with tourist prices if you know what I mean, but it’s still fun and the sales associates were not overly aggressive, so it’s easy to say no if you don’t want to buy something. Even in bitter cold January I had an awesome time, very much helped by our excellent host. The one thing I will advise is about the Traditional Chinese Medicine stop- just enjoy the foot massage and don’t bother with the evaluation. The TCM physician (if they’re not just sales people) will give you a reading and “prescribe” you some herbal remedies. I’m not going to posit on the efficacy of such supplements, but what I will say is that them prices they suggested were astronomical 😂 they suggested two bottles for me, and I had to ask them a few times before they showed me the formulation- mostly just ordinary herbs in tablet form…. $240 😂 sorry guys, holler at me when you’re sober. I probably would have taken the bait if it were $30; but sorry that’s just funny. But I only write about this because it was the one point where the construction of the situation made it feel like you agreed to something you hadn’t; and thus had to overcome that and be firm with a no. But the foot massage was class, just enjoy and don’t bother with the dog and pony show 😁
Beautiful day with Mary

5.00The trip was well organized and Mary was instrumental in ensuring the trip went well. From coordinating the pickup, processing the paperwork for entry to the Tianaman square, to stopping for lunch and tea, the entire trip was well supported. We had a real cold day and it was made worse by blowing wind. Inspire of that Mary ensured that the trip allowed for breaks yet not miss anything important. In all, a wonderful visit, thanks to Mary
On track and good

5.00Mary was my guide and she was super knowledgeable about history and had a lot of very detailed facts about all the differents monuments and artifacts. She is also an incredible photographer for all your instagram needs and was my personal hype woman during this tour. Also having a driver carrying you around and bringing you from place to place really helped and we were able to see everything in one day avoiding the crowds. The Tea tasting ceremony was also a very nice plus. All over a very nice experience!
Fantastic experience in Beijing

5.00Our experience with our guide, Mary, was fantastic. She's full of life, very helpful, and also speaks very good English. She explained so much to us, and in eight hours, she practically became a friend. At the end of the tour, she took us to a beautiful place, and she also showed us the way back to the hotel, since the tour would end there. We had a really good time, and I recommend her to everyone.
Very good Guilded tour by Mary
