5.00For two days we visited places that you can’t miss, visiting China. Our guide Justin was very nice and helpful and he took us on a tour of The Forbidden City, Tian’anmen Square, The Great Wall and Gubei water Town. We really loved it all. Justin gave historic details and was very patient while we took 1000 photos. Also we got a very confortable van and a nice driver.

5.00Thanks to Jenny, our guide, we had an amazing two-day private tour in Beijing that covered the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Great Wall, and the Summer Palace, and it exceeded all our expectations. The itinerary was very well organized, allowing us to see the highlights without feeling rushed. Each site was fascinating in its own way, especially the Great Wall, which was truly unforgettable and offered breathtaking views. Jenny, our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Chinese history and culture, providing clear explanations and interesting stories that brought each place to life. Transportation was comfortable, timing was perfect, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. This tour is an excellent way to experience Beijing’s most iconic landmarks in a short time. Highly recommended for anyone visiting China for the first time!

5.00Teagan and Moo We both had the pleasure of this wonderful 2 day, lunch included private driver and personel english tour guide. Our tour guide was Jenny she was great and very informative with all aspects of the tour history and very well spoken english which helped us understand better. All of the acess tickets were included through Jenny our which made it super easy. Honestly we wouldve struggled to find the right entrances and wouldve been walking around in circles. Alot of the sites we went to due to the time of year were easily accessible for us which made it more special for photos. Definately made seeing the list of places so much more enjoyable, we give all praise to Jenny and her knowledge. It was a tour to remember. Ask for Jenny as your next guide and allow her to take you on a amazing journey through beijing past and present.
Memorable trip to China.

Fantastic Tour and Guide

5.00We had a fantastic and memorable two-day Beijing Highlights Tour with Catherine’s Tours, guided by Sonia. Sonia took us to great spots and made sure we arrived at the Great Wall early to avoid the crowds — we had an almost empty experience and saw the crowds arriving as we left, which was amazing. Sonia was knowledgeable, personable, and great fun to spend time with. Her energy and warmth made a big difference, especially as we were a bit tired from travel. She also picked excellent local restaurants for lunch. A wonderful start to our trip in China — we’d highly recommend this tour and Sonia to anyone visiting Beijing.
Wonderful unforgettable experience
