The tour was nice and Christine was a great guide ! She provided many historical information and anecdotes which made the tour as interesting as pleasant. She even adapted the itinerary upon my request to go to the Sacred Way. I recommend !

Fun times!

Amazing experience

Published on Jun, 2023

We really loved this tour! We wanted to explore nature in China and we found this tour online. Longqing Gorge is such a beautiful place and definitely one of my favorite spots in Beijing. We went during a weekday so it was not crowded at all. We took a boat ride to see the beautiful scenery that China has to offer, and had some delicious lunch in a local restaurant. We also enjoyed the Ming Tombs and learned a lot about the history of China. Our tour guide, Qiu Huanan (Anson) was so nice and funny. He gave us an introduction about the history of China and the Ming Dinasty. He took care of everything so we didn’t have to go through the stress of finding transportation or place to eat. We got picked up in our hotel and also dropped off after the tour. If you want to explore nature in China and the countryside, I definitely recommend this tour! It is so underrated!

Linda was great!

Lucy was such a great guide! This was my second day of a 4 week trip and one of the most memorable days! Lucy was very knowledgeable and enhanced the visit to the Longqing Gorge and Ming Tombs. She took us for a delicious lunch as well!
