Very good day

Published on Sep, 2024

The Summer Palace and Lama Temple were very good and the Panda Garden at the zoo was good too. The sculptures at the zoo were as interesting as the animals. There were also two sales pitch stops which cut into the time available for actual attractions. The guide was informative and knowledgeable but did not speak loud enough, especially when facing away from us (the only two people on tour). Overall, it was a very good day.

Tea ceremony was...

Published on Jun, 2024

Tea ceremony was fantastic and very interesting. Michael was very helpful and polite. We had plenty of time to do all what was in the programme and more.

An amazing experience

Published on Jun, 2024

Mary, our guide, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. She really tried to cater to our individual likes, while offering her own ideas. The Lama temple was such a cultural delight! The sights, the sounds and the smells made this an incredible tour, which I cannot recommend enough.

Super nice Panda, Summer Palace, and la Temple experience

Published on Mar, 2024

The secret garden at the Summer Palace was amazing. Very inspiring spiritual experience at the Lama Temple. Local food was delicious. You can miss the dumplings.

Great Tour

Published on Feb, 2019

Zoe was a great guide. Her English is very good and she has a lot of positive energy. On the tour she shared a lot of good information and helped us navigate large crowds quickly. As for the locations, the Summer Palace is beautiful with a lot of great architectural features. Same can be said for the Lama Temple. The panda garden was interesting and the enclosures are about what you would expect in a zoo in the States. The crowds here were very light as we got there early. I would have liked to have spent more time viewing the rest of the zoo but you had plenty of time with the pandas. Two added shops were a tea ceremony and a pearl shop. Both were informational and a chance to lighten your wallet with some over priced items. Lunch provided was good, plentiful, and a few different plates. Overall, the tour was very good and again Zoe was a great guide.
