5.00We had a wonderful two-day tour with Rocky and highly recommend him! His English is excellent, and his deep knowledge of the area’s history and culture made every site come alive. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned and packed with highlights, including visits to beautiful ancient sites, a fun rickshaw ride, and an enjoyable tea-tasting experience. We felt safe, well cared for, and truly able to relax and enjoy the experience.
Great Wall was simply Great!

5.00Our tour guide Helen was amazing! Although there was a problem with one of the people in our group getting in Tianmen Square that didn’t stop her in giving us an unforgettable experience! She was very attentive and fed us a lot of information. I didn’t feel rushed and gave us a lot of free time at the Great Wall which we enjoyed the most! I highly recommend this tour and Helen. Book it and you won’t regret it!

Great tour and guide, unfortunate van AC malfunction

4.00On the plus side, Helen was a wonderful guide and took great care of us and our small group. The tour was well organized and moved along well and Helen balanced her information with appropriate free time for us to explore on our own which we really appreciated. The Great Wall experience was a particular highlight for us and the tea ceremony was a very pleasant positive surprise which we enjoyed immensely. On the downside, the AC in the van stopped working about halfway thru the tour which made for very uncomfortable conditions given the 95 degree weather and the almost 2 hour drive to and from The Great Wall. If not for this unfortunate situation, we would have rated this tour as 5 stars.

5.00We had a great experience from the beginning, while booking the trip, receiving updated information and always having someone to talk with. In Beijing, with Helen as our guide, and we truly couldn’t have asked for better. She guided us through the city, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Great Wall, and every moment felt special thanks to her. Helen was incredibly kind, warm, and thoughtful throughout the entire experience. She was always attentive to our interests, our pace, and our comfort, which made us feel really cared for from start to finish, as well was always available to answer our questions, explain everything with so much knowledge and enthusiasm, and make sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. Beyond being an excellent guide, Helen is genuinely a lovely person, sweet, caring, and incredibly easy to be around. She made our time in Beijing even more memorable, and we are so grateful we had her with us. We would recommend Helen 1000% to anyone visiting Beijing. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable, professional, and truly kind-hearted, she is the perfect guide. Thank you, Helen, for making our trip so special! And a big thank you Travel China Guide 🙂

5.00We had a great day at the Summer Palace, Lama Temple and Temple of Heaven. Our guide is Jim and he looked after us really well! If you're a history junkie you will absolutely adore him, he had so much knowledge of China which we ate up! All the little tales and folklore of China is really interesting, every place we visited he had a wide range of knowledge about. This is such a convenient tour and a must do if you want to see the culture in China! Thanks Travel China 😎🇨🇳
