5.00We had a wonderful day with Xia Wei, who took the time to explain everything to us. Xia is an endless source of knowledge. Lunch was of very good quality, and the agency looked after every detail. We can only recommend them wholeheartedly.

5.00We visited Tian’anmen square, Forbidden Palace and Temple of Heaven with Linda Shi as our guide. Linda was great as the places were huge with lots of tourists, but Linda expertly showed us the highlights and we learnt a lot of Chinese history as well! Thoroughly recommend all of it!

5.00We really enjoyed the tour, our guide Clara was very friendly and friendly. She has explained everything very well, and helped us with the photos (she is a great photographer). He has also given us very good recommendations for after the tour. The place he has taken us to eat was great, rich and hearty food. If we go back to Beijing we will repeat with her.

5.00My wife and I had such an incredible time during our tour of Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven. We booked the tour with Cathy, which was very easy to do via WhatsApp. Then our tour guide Crystal was absolutely phenomenal! She was so kind and friendly, she was incredibly knowledgeable, and she made the already amazing sites so much more enjoyable for having her company. There are a million companies and tour guides in Beijing, but this experience was so great because of the women we had the pleasure of working with for it.

5.00Our tour guide Kathy has a really cheerful personality and super knowledgable about the history that she shows you! She made a really comfortable and quick guide of Beijing city and showed the most important bits with good explanations throughout :-)) with some cheer and trying to match the groups energy! So if you want to save time and look at as many things then I really recommend this tour! The lunch included will fill you up until the end of the day so really worth the money :-)!
