Amazing experience - Our tour in Beijing was absolutely perfectly organized. Everything was on time, smooth, and without any issues. Both the guide James and the driver were absolutely fantastic – very professional, kind, and helpful throughout the whole day. We really appreciated the amount of information we received; the guide was very knowledgeable and made the experience both interesting and enjoyable. The restaurants chosen for us were excellent. Both lunch and dinner were absolutely outstanding – in fact, it was the best food we had during our entire 14-day trip to Japan and Beijing. Overall, everything exceeded our expectations and we are very grateful for the excellent organization and service. Rating of the guide: 5/5 (Excellent)

We had a great time with... - We had a great time with our guide Jenny from Catherine Lu tours. She was very flexible with the itinerary and made sure to take extra care with my 77 year old mother to make sure she had the best experience possible at the Great Wall. I would absolutely do this tour again in the future.

China: A Journey Through History and Wonder - I had an amazing experience on the tour with Catherine. The places included were absolutely worth it, and her explanations helped me truly understand the history of China. She managed the schedule perfectly, so we optimized our time without feeling rushed. Catherine is very professional, kind, and extremely pleasant to be around. I highly recommend her tour.

Best Beijing Experience - I travel a lot to China on business, so it was such a treat to spend a day in Beijing to see the sights for my very first time! I booked a tour through a Marriott experience and was fortunate enough to have Catherine Lu Tours handle my reservation. We were assigned to Jenny and her driver, and we had the safest, most informative visit to Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, and ending with The Great Wall. The experience was so great, it felt as though we gained new family by the end of the day.
