5.00If you're like us, short on time but eager to experience the most essential history and culture of Beijing, this itinerary is undoubtedly the perfect choice! The schedule was well-paced without being rushed—everything felt smooth and efficient. Our tour guide Linda was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and engaging, with excellent time management throughout the day. A special thanks to our driver, Mr. Liu, for his skillful driving and the clean, comfortable vehicle. We were able to relax fully during all transfers. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting Beijing!

We had a private car take us to The Forbidden City were she taught us about China's long history. We then went to The Temple of Heaven were she explained the link between the Emperor and the Gods. It was extremely fascinating. The lunch was brilliant! Beijing Duck with other traditional Chinese foods. I would definitely recommend Linda's services

5.00Linda has been amazing since the moment I contacted her. Not only getting the information to me about a personal itinerary but helpful tips about China SIM cards and many other tips. The guided tours were informative and interesting and Linda’s knowledge adds to the experience. The advantage to having a tour with Linda is she knows the best times to get to attractions to avoid the long queues. The Great Wall was a bucket list dream and the days was amazing. After the climb we had a great early lunch food was amazing. I wanted to experience the food as well as the culture and Linda put together a detailed itinerary for my days in Beijing. Everything has been brilliant so well put together and met with my expectations. The tour round the local market and the Hutongs was great summer palace beautiful place to visit I went with Helen another tour guide who was great too. The drivers are very good too didn’t leave us waiting for long and navigated busy traffic.
