5.00Wonderful experience. We did a private day tour with Jenny. Organised everything for us and great knowledge. Jenny tailored the day for us to make it perfect for a day with an 8 year old son. Our son had a great time and learnt so much. Highly recommended.
DO THIS TOUR. DON’T THINK TWICE.

5.00This activity was by far THE BEST experience of my trip. I did everything that I wanted to do plus more. If you take this trip, you should request MICHAEL SHI. HE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST. when I tell you he made sure that everything went perfect, he went above and beyond. I even asked for more, and he made that happen. He was so patient with me because I asked a lot of questions. But he was so knowledgeable that he didn’t mind answering. I truly learned the most from him on my trip. And if you’re a TCM enthusiast, that’s a plus. He loves TCM. He took me to a TCM consultation which was a goal for my trip. He also took me to a silk factory where I was able to purchase a traditional Chinese garment. It is because of him that I’m leaving Beijing today feeling fulfilled. JUST BOOK IT.
