An AMAZING experience!

Published on Feb, 2025

This was absolutely AMAZING!! Cindy Chen, my guide, was wonderful. So knowledgeable about Chinese culture and history. So much fun to spend the day with. Seeing the Great Wall, Forbidden City and Tian'amen Square were very exciting for me. Mr. Wong was our wonderful driver for the day. Don’t miss out on this experience.

Highlights of Beijing

Published on Dec, 2024

This tour takes in the highlights of Beijing, which, if you only have a day in Beijing (as we did) is an excellent overview of this historic and fascinating city. Our guide Judy was extremely nice, friendly, helpful and professional, cannot rate her highly enough. Thoroughly recommend this tour...

The tour of your life!

Published on Sep, 2024

Where do I begin...our guide Jack was simply amazing. It is hard to express how much we enjoyed the tour with him. Jack and Han (the driver) were super friendly, accommodating and just simply great to spend the day with. Jack is a wonderful, knowledgeable person who knows the history and the facts so well. Although I've studied in China for 2 years, I didn't even know all the interesting facts that Jack shared with us. The lunch was also so great, Jack made sure we liked the food and was very attentive. We simply had the time of our lives with him, my partner (who is visiting China for the first time) was so happy we decided to go with this tour. Thank you so much for the wonderful time and if you are still thinking it you should book it, just do it! You won't regret it, worth every dollar!
