See everything in a day

4.00Really enjoyed this tour to see all the main sights in one day. The tour leader was well informed and friendly. The lunch was hearty and delicious. Loses a star because of the tea ceremony, it was a good experience but we were there for far too long and had to rush the Summer Palace. On the plus side, there was absolutely no pressure to buy at the tea shop. Not the fault of the tour company, but others in the tour group were under the impression the tour would be about 7 hours long, when it is about 9/10 hours due to Beijing traffic. This was frustrating as they were pressuring the tour leader to return early.
Great tour, visit a lot of key places

5.00I have wonderful day with the group tour of Beijing City 1 day tour. I was picked up from the hotel by car and joined the group in sit in coach. The guide Ms.Mary is really very good and taken care of us in entire day explaining in details and the guided at each and every place and every moment. It’s worth having a guided tour. She also shown her humanity and kindness in helping my co-tourist who has trouble with cold weather. We had a wonderful buffet lunch. She has also helped in taking photographs in her phone and shared the photographs in the WhatsApp group. All the places covered are really memorable. At the end of the tour, I was dropped to my hotel by a Car. All in all, it was a wonderful trip and memorable experience .
