Jack was the perfect guide - a student of history, an insightful instructor, patient and helpful. We sent him a request to see things we wouldn’t see on our large group tour and he met it with excellent timing. Zhao our driver was right there when we needed him always coordinating carefully with Jack , always ready with water and a little candy when we called for pick up. These guys were good and we recommend them highly.

Lucy’s custom 8 hour Beijing tour was a perfect way to see exactly what we wanted in a single day. It was a full day, but very easy going and fulfilling! Lucy has great insight on all things Beijing; history, culture, architecture, food, and the people. We specifically asked for a locally patroned restaurant for dumplings… sooooo, good! Whatever you might want to see, do, eat, or experience, I’m sure Lucy can make a day of it for you! Highly recommended!

Becky was our tour guide and she was fantastic. She coordinated a pick up at our hotel lobby with a clean luxury minivan for myself and 3 children, 8, 11 and 13. It was super hot but the driver had plenty of cool bottled water for our family and was prompt with pickups from the various locations. Becky worked with us to pack in a full day of touring without rushing us. In the morning, we saw the Temple of Heaven and Lama Temple. We had plenty of time to hear the history and visit the various buildings within both locations. Next Becky took us to a local dim sum restaurant. She assisted us in selecting from the menu and the food was fantastic. She helped the kids master the use of chop sticks and was patient with them but instructive. She also helped the kids understand the culture and history of China. She helped them with various Mandarin words that were helpful for the rest of the trip. After lunch I was amazed at how many things Becky was able to seamlessly coordinate. We rode in a rickshaw, saw a local Houtong home, listened to the Drum Tower performance next to the large drums and enjoyed a tea ceremony at the Bell Tower. I was amazed that she was able to coordinate everything and yet we never felt rushed. Becky was fantastic and if I could have scheduled her for our entire time in China I would have. She provided lots of great information for adults and the way down to the children. FANTASTIC!!!
