5.00Dominic was the highlight of our trip. He is a very kind and interesting guide. The e bikes were in perfect condition and he was very thorough in making sure you were safe to drive the bikes. Felt very much like a local. We went through the narrow alleys of the Hutong and saw inside the homes. Dominic took us to local markets, parks and let us try many local food items. Would highly recommend this tour!! The best one we did in China.
