Review for: Summer Palace & Temple of Heaven Full-Day Historical Experience

4.18 tour by 张导 is very exceptional and memorable. She is very knowledgeable and gave us a good insight into the history of the places we visit. She is very professional and won't rush to end the tour just because the time is up. We appreciate her enthusiasm and friendliness. Highly recommended to book for 张导.

Excellent tour guide 小崔 on 26 December. The explanations were clear, well-structured, and informative throughout the tour. The guide showed strong attention to detail, was very meticulous in planning and execution, and ensured everything ran smoothly. Overall, a very professional and enjoyable experience.

Our tour guide, Xiao Qiu, was fantastic! His knowledge of the attractions was profound, and his explanations were thorough, complete with photos. Everything was arranged perfectly, and the timing was impeccable. I highly recommend this tour; I was extremely satisfied and it exceeded my expectations ❤️👍👍 I strongly recommend this tour. Our guide, Xiao Qiu, was very knowledgeable and in-depth in his explanations. He covered more than what we expected and was top-of-the-ranks as a tour guide. He even showed pictures of the old and current for us to understand the sites. Highly recommend this tour!! 👍👍👍

Review for: 五環內上門接+景點門票+專業導遊

The tour guide, Xiao Cui, was very kind. She helped us arrange the car the day before. The explanation on the day was super good. She was the only one who brought a notebook. From time to time, she would take out photos to show us some scenes that we couldn't see or photos before the destruction. She would always pay attention to whether the group members were all present. She stood to explain when we were in the car, and she stood to explain when we were on the boat. When we sat down to rest at a certain place, she still stood to explain. She was really serious and dedicated. Thanks to her, we can understand the history of each place. Each place has a little story behind it. There are also some places that are not suitable for taking pictures at all, and which places? And which places can take the most beautiful pictures. We are really lucky to meet Xiao Cui to lead our group!

Review for: Chinese-Speaking Guide - Summer Palace + Old Summer Palace + Temple of Heaven

I signed up for the tour with my parents and a friend. I am Korean and I can't speak Chinese at all, but I didn't feel any inconvenience at all! Teacher Shi Mingsu is the best guide in China! Of course, he explained the history in Chinese, so I didn't understand everything, but I was able to learn enough about the history through the translator! And since I was going to Onang Airport, I had a lot of luggage, but Teacher Shi Mingsu was considerate enough to let me leave my bags in the middle. Today was the day I was leaving for the airport, but the tour was delayed more than expected. We found out about this at the third stop, Guihua Garden. The teacher came to us in a hurry and helped us get to the airport in the middle of the tour. It was my first time traveling abroad with my parents, and I am grateful to Teacher Shi Mingsu for helping us finish the trip happily! If any Koreans sign up for this tour, I highly recommend Teacher Shi Mingsu.

Review for: Chinese-Speaking Guide - Summer Palace + Old Summer Palace + Temple of Heaven

The Temple of Heaven is so beautiful! You must go~~ The tour guide clearly explained many interesting stories and details, and you can learn more about many related historical stories! However, the package did not include the Summer Palace and Old Summer Palace cruise and shuttle bus. The tour guide told us that they had to be purchased separately when we were on the bus. As a result, the Summer Palace boat and shuttle bus alone cost more than NT$900 per person, which seemed a bit rip-off. Later, due to bad weather and strong winds, we did not get on the Old Summer Palace boat. In addition, because there are three scenic spots in total, the time for visiting each place is a little bit tight. However, after a whole day in the three scenic spots, it is actually very tiring. If you don’t want to be cheated or just want to visit by yourself, you can consider buying your own tickets during the non-peak season, and then do some homework! However, ordering with Klook is indeed very convenient, and you don’t have to worry about too many things. It is suitable for people who don’t have time to prepare and do homework! You will receive the collection and tour guide information on time the day before, which is very convenient and guaranteed!

Tour guide Xiao Cui is friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She is good at explaining local history, culture and lesser-known attractions. She has extensive experience in leading groups and can lead groups of all sizes to ensure that the itinerary is safe (Xiao Cui always emphasizes), interesting and memorable. Her time management and customer service are committed to creating an unforgettable travel experience for tourists. Highly recommended! 🙏👍😊
