Smooth, insightful trip with Wendy - Wendy arrived promptly at our hotel to pick us up. We told her we felt comfortably cycling so we took some bicycle which was great fun. All day arranged smoothly and with some great insights! 😊

Excellent tour in Spanish - Excellent tour. The Sofia guide has been very good, with good explanations and answers using an excellent command of the Spanish language. Driver Lu has driven wisely and quickly, something new for us in Beijing. They took us to a very good local restaurant

Fantastic tour guided by Manna. Highly recommend - I absolutely loved my tour of the forbidden city & summer palace. Manna Liu was my tour guide, and she was fantastic, knowledgeable, and knew all the secret spots to take the best photos. I would wholeheartedly recommend her.

Forbidden city and summer palace - We were picked up from hotel and went to summer palace and forbidden city. Lunch was included and was delicious. Our tourguide was Jenna who was very knowledgable and English was perfect. She took loads of photos and sent them to us after the day. Her and the driver made for an amazing day and we got to see all we wanted to see. It was scorching hot out but we kept loads in the shadow and there were time for breaks and coffee on the way. Wait time was minimal and the car was always close by when we needed to go next place. Great experience and would recommend to anyone going to see Beijing for the first time.

Jenny was our guide and... - Jenny was our guide and both she and our driver were great! We enjoyed very much and appreciated their hospitality and flexibility. It was a summer holiday season in China and I’m sure our trip wasn’t that smooth without their help.
