About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- yinhueil0 contributionsWonderful experience at the Great WallWe had a great day with Edward and Mr Zhang. Edward shared the history and stories behind The Great Wall, and a lot of information about Beijing and China. We had a comfortable ride to conserve our energy to climb the stairs and enjoy the breathtaking scenery. I highly recommend this tour.Written 30 August 2024
- 405devonl0 contributionsVery Good Tour of the Lamastery and tasty DimSumPrompt pick up at our hotel with a very nice minivan and excellent driver. Our guide was very sweet and answered all our questions, but sometimes the answers were a little difficult to follow. The Dim Sum breakfast was very tasty, and the Lamastery was interesting, and our guide tried to explain to us what each individual area meant, and showed us how to light the incense and say a prayer to the Buddhas. We definitely recommend the tour, but comparing it to the tour we had later that day which was a foodie tour through the Houtongs we can only give this one a 4 star rating. It was "very good" but not excellent.Written 2 July 2024
- diogog9890 contributionsGreat local food experience.This was a great opportunity to experience local food outlets and learn about the history of the hutongs. Our guide Anson was excellent. Highly recommended!Written 17 June 2024
- TomK41870 contributionsGreat experienceThe tour guide was knowledgeable and we went through the tour at a very comfortable pace. The tour guide was very detailed in guiding us where to meet and how to get to the venue.Written 23 May 2024
- fawnu20240 contributionsAmazing tour with Alice and Li YangBing!We had an amazing time on this tour! Everything ran smoothly and our tour guide was very knowledgeable on Chinese history. She answered all of our questions and took a lot of pictures for us. Our tour guide’s name is Alice, and we would definitely recommend her to everyone. We had a dim sum lunch and Alice knew exactly what to order for us! We chose the option with a private car, and it’s definitely worth it. Our driver Li YangBing was very personable and chatted with us in Chinese during our drive. He was very professional and told us he often drives foreigners around Beijing.Written 22 May 2024
- stuartjaneb0 contributionsSo glad to organise an event tht everyone was pleased by.......If ever there was a venue whose menu perfectly fits its ambience this is it! Sixteen of us sat down to celebrate joint 40th birthdays and the whole experience couldn't have been bettered. There's not a vast choice but from the small plates ( butterfly prawns, sausage bites, mac and cheese, etc.) through to mains (burgers, tacos, salt beef sarnies, pizzas ) it was perfection. We'd pre ordered ,being a large party, and having arrived as planned at 1230hrs and ordered drinks our food was served on the dot of 1245hrs, as agreed. We were a diverse group from 2 to septuagenarian and everyone thought it was great. We'll be back again and from the compliments flying about so will all our guestsWritten 18 May 2024
- nataliakQ4967LX0 contributionsMust see!We had a wonderful time on this trip and it’s so worth the one-on-one tour guide! We toured with Edward and our driver Mr. Gao, and they gave us interesting info and tidbits about Chinas history. Be prepared for a lot of steps (which is to be expected!) We also stopped at a tea house for a quick lesson and a jade shop to learn China’s history with jade.Written 10 May 2024
- alviarin990 contributionsFantastic day trip to Ming tombs and Summer PalaceWe had a great experience with Jack, it was well planned and Jack shared a lot of fascinating historical anecdotes and points of interest during the tour. The Ding tomb is the only tomb where you can enter the underground crypt and this was such an eye opener compared to my previous visit to another of the Ming tombs where it was only the aboveground portion. We were very well looked after from the point of pickup until the end of the tour, with drinking water and snacks provided in the car. The pace of the tour was just right and not tiring at all. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone keen on visiting the Ming tombs and Summer palace.Written 7 May 2024
- Travel599955339290 contributionsExcellent experience!!Today we took a shopping tour with Sherrilyn, we loved her disposition, she was entertaining and she took us to very good information to buy.. totally recommendedWritten 10 April 2024
- kiira20200 contributionsLovely layover tour with Beijing highlightsJack was an amazing guide, he showed me around Beijing and shared interesting facts about the spots we visited, everything was very easy to organize, even an airport pick up and drop off so that I could see a glimpse of the city on my long layover. 10/10, would recommend to anyone!Written 5 April 2024
- joshg4200 contributions100% worth it!Anson was amazing! When he picked us up he asked if we had eaten breakfast (we hadn’t), so he took us to an incredible local place where our breakfast came to under £2 for both of us and was incredibly tasty! After that we went to the Mutianyu and beat the crowds, he showed us all the best photo spots and took tons of us two together. Because the wall was quiet we finished it at around 11.15 and weren’t hungry, he recommended a tea house nearby which was a bonus experience! Lunch was amazing and the restaurant was also an experience within itself before then heading to the Huanguacheng tower. What a day!Written 31 March 2024
- Gajahgoogoo0 contributionsGreat tour, excellent tour guide in JayIt was a quick tour of Beijing's old and new with a different perspective at night. Jay took really beautiful photos of us and spent the whole time telling us endless stories of Beijing especially Beijing's hutongs and life before and after the pandemic. We was an excellent (and different) tour of old and new Beijing!Written 24 March 2024
- zachpK800ZW0 contributionsWould recommend- great way to see Beijing attractions.Very very good tour. We went with Miko and he is a rockstar. Very knowledgeable, does a great job with photography and he does a nice job both getting you to the forbidden city and Tian’anmen square in addition to talking through all the historical facts about the areas. He is also very knowledgeable about NBA and he speaks incredible English. Very happy with Miko!!!Written 14 March 2024
- josephpI4932IN0 contributionsGreat Two Day Shore Excursion from the cruise portLucy was a terrific guide. She explained everything very well. Very knowledgeable about the places we went to see. There are a lot of government check points along the way and especially in Beijing at the sites. , Because we had a private guide, getting through these check points was a breeze. She even helped push my wife in a walker and assisted her to climb stairs. If there was a way to rate Lucy a 5 +, I would certainly do so. Our driver and Lucy communicated very well to make sure he was at the right place for drop off and pick up. Thanks Lucy for making our two day Shore Excursion in Beijing a very memorable experience. Martha and JoeWritten 12 March 2024
- sergioebsq0 contributionsBEST TOUR AT NIGHT!Jay was our tour guide. He is extremely friendly. He took us to the best places, with a private chauffer driving us around the city. We enjoyed this tour so much. It's highly recommended. Very happy with his services and advices. He is the best! Totally recommendedWritten 10 March 2024
