Kathy did a great job on this tour. She made sure that I was aware of the distance and time needed to get to different places. Very accommodating to try and make sure that everything was covered and within the time frame.

I only had one day free in Beijing, but Jessica helped me make the most of it. She picked me up early and took me to thr Great Wall. It was tranquil and cool early in the morning and I climbed between many watchtowers, enjoying the beautiful view. Then we drove to Tiananmen Square, to see Chairman Maos Mausleum and the other sites. Finally we visited the Forbidden City, so full of endless beauty and history that it is hard not to be overwhelmed. Jessica provided me with interesting history throughout. An excellent introduction to Beijing, that leaves me wanting to see more.
Super!!!!

An exceptional experience. Great day out. Tour was superbly organised. Alvin as our tour guide was simply top notch. Very informative, very helpful. The communication was super easy. Mutianyu is a great place to go see the wall. Awesome open cable car to the top (they have closed ones too) and then the slide down, which was exhilarating to say the least. We climbed to the top of Tower One. Tough climb but well worth it. All up, a terrific tour.
Great experience!

We had a very nice day with Mr. Gou. He was very punctual, friendly and accommodating. Everything was very well prepared and organized. We didn't have to wait anywhere. Mr. Gou even thought about our breakfast, since we left so early and couldn't have breakfast in the hotel. All in all, highly recommended! Thank you very much!
