We went to some unusual places for Beijing—798 Art Zone, Lama and Fayuan Temples, and walking to the top of Jingshan Park… Viator allowed us to specify where we wanted to go—a self designed tour which was great. If you want to see things off the beaten path they can do it. The private guide we had allowed us to change timing and location as we wanted. These were places that locals go and with fewer tourists.

We visited the pandas in the zoo first, as Bruce knew that was the best time to see them active, then on to the summer palace which was beautiful. A quick stop for tea tasting (with no hard sell) then lunch. We then visited the Lama temple, Bruce was an excellent guide and made the day more enjoyable.

Absolutely unacceptable. From the moment Gale contacted me, she was trying to rip me off. Rude, had a bad tone with me the entire conversation. She tried to sell me a private car via “a friend” for $1k USD. The hotel was offering for 800yen ($125usd). She has snide remarks when I asked anything.

I would not recommend this tour to others frankly. Also, our guide, Carolin.. was nice and fun but didn't possess any real tour knowledge. We did have a Fun time.. but did not have Fun Tour.. it was okay.. but we really wanted to hear about the history and
First, Unlike other tours.. you have to contact your guide first.. however.. our operator Hangtantour could not recieve my emails, calls..
and even Viator's customers service team couldn't reach them.
We wanted to cancel the tour.. but Viator said that there was nothing that they could do.
It was when we arrived at the hotel at beijing when we got the call. Very dissapointing and unconvinient.
Rather than i certificated guide.. i think they just send beijing locals.. to have a good trip.
Also she forced us in to some souviner shops in the forbidden city and other places which we didn't know want to buy.
other things that we couldn't get out from our guide book. It was mostly about just friend talks.. or chit chatting all the time.
I would recommend to go on a group tour or a professional tour.. rather than this tour.
