5.00Allan was our guide and he was really helpful his English was very good so his explanations were clear and informative. The driver was also very safe and car was comfortable and spacious. The tour to the summer palace was fuss free and ample time to look around. Lunch at the restaurant near the market was also delicious and authentic. Highly recommended!
Amazing Tour guide!

5.00The small group tour was a private tour for two with a driver and a well competent English speaking guide.
It's a mix of cultural seeings with a lunch break in a highly populated canteen nice experience and time devoted to a tourist shopping market valuable deals and English speaking sellers.
