this was an amazing tour, Jenny, our guide was in our hotel lobby early & we set off with a private driver. Jenny spent the day teaching us a lot about Chinese culture & looking after us at every step of the tour, she went out of her way to take special care of our 2 children ages 8 & 11, Jenny spoke very good English & went above & beyond to make it an incredible day, as it was Labour day it was extremely busy, but she still managed to get us through the crowds & tick off everything we had planned & even added an extra shopping stop to end the day.

Good tour company. The owner/organizer speaks good English so it was nice to be able to communicate with her about logistics.

Was called the morning of tour to say cannot pick you up, only to eventually pick us up because I had only just arrived and had no money yet. I booked this tour because it included lunch and bottled water throughout the day. When on boat the bus I was told water was not included, when I pushed the point the tour guide got short with me and then gave me 1 bottle and said that was it. I had to purchase all future water. When at the Great Wall, 2 of our tour members took a long time to return so he left them behind!! They did go back and pick them up but still, during this time the guide was rude and cranky to us, yelling at us to hurry up. Barely let us finish our lunch. His time management was very poor, the day started out poorly because t-square and forbidden city was closed, instead of going straight to the Great Wall he messed around and wasted time in the morning. We got a good look at the Great Wall, very quick look at the forbidden city. The tour itself is ok, the tour guide was poor.

Wow! What a way to see the city and learn about the history of China. My guide, Tina, spoke perfect English and took her time to explain things to us at every sight as well as giving us enough time to take quality photographs. This time of year is low season so it was only myself and two friends on the tour and the sights weren't overcrowded. The lunch included is basic and being a vegetarian I was limited, however buying extra items wasn't too expensive. The only downside to this tour were the visits to the Jade Factory and "Traditional Tea Room" - which was more of a shop, as these visits felt more like money making schemes than authentic experiences, and the items were extremely expensive. That said, I didn't feel obligated or forced into buying anything which was refreshing.

I was really uncertain as to what to expect, being my first time to Beijing and using Viator to book a tour. The night before we made contact with the tour guide and arranged to be picked up at our hotel. We actually were not staying in "Central Beijing", but they arranged for a private car to pick us up and rather than doing the "Coach Tour" we had our own private tour. There was a driver and a separate tour guide, Tina, who was great! She knew all history and interesting facts and would explain things along the way. I am more of a fast-paced person, so I was happy that she did not spend too much time in one area, but I got the impression she adjusts according to the group. We actually ended up going to a different section of the Great Wall, which was a little further away, but it was well worth it. There was hardly anyone there and it was so beautiful! Due to the small size of our group (only 2 tourists), we had time to see other things not originally on the itinerary (jade factory, silk factory, and tea house). I could have gone without the tea house and silk factory, but the jade factory was very cool. I highly recommend this tour if you get the chance.

I had a lot of fun in Beijing. it is a great city and you need to discover it with ChinaToursNet.com. I loved the variety of stops included in the itinerary. From making the reservations online to the finish of the tour i was treated with professionalism and respect. The tour guide and bus driver were so good and the lady from the office really cooperated with me about the next pick up location because of the traffic going to downtown Beijing. I will recommend this tour to everyone and for those who would otherwise wander around seeing the sights and not knowing what they represent and the history that goes with the sites.

I had a lot of fun!! Beijing is a great city and you need to discover it with ChinaToursnet.com. My Sister, brother and my Son had a great time during the Tour and the guide and driver were so good. The Lady from the office really accomodated us in a comfortable hotel and even changed our pick up location because of the traffic at the time of the tour. I will recommend this tour to everyone. This is actually the best way to see the city in one day
