5.00Gary was an excellent guide from start to finish. He is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable and well taken care of. He showed us the Temple of Heaven, where he explained everything clearly and with great enthusiasm. We also enjoyed a delicious Peking duck lunch, followed by visits to the Lama Temple and the Summer Palace. Thanks to Gary, every stop was interesting, smooth, and enjoyable. We truly appreciated his professionalism, kindness, and constant attention to detail. Highly recommended!
Enjoyable Journey

5.00We really enjoyed this packed day with Gary! He was a great guide and we enjoyed the day to the fullest. The Peking duck lunch was delicious. His narration of the history and facts was great.My only comment would be To leave more time for the main attractions within the temples. I think we always start slow and at the end there’s little time for the main buildings Other than that it was truly a magical day.
Must visit !!

5.00We were very fortunate to have Gary as our tour guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and communicates everything clearly. His command of English is excellent, and he speaks with a clear accent that’s easy for everyone to understand. Gary is also very helpful and always goes out of his way to assist. He makes sure everyone keeps up and stops frequently to let the group catch up. The lunch included in the tour was well worth it—especially the Peking Duck, which was fantastic. Highly recommended!
Wonderful experience
