Beijing Multi-day tours

Our guide Murphy was great at our Forbidden City and Great Wall in the first day. Helen was also nice in the second day of the tour. Thanks to them we have learnt lots of things on Chinese history.

Our tour guide, Mr. Liu, was enthusiastic, friendly, and attentive, taking excellent care of both adults and children. The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to comfortably explore various parts of Beijing. We hope to visit Beijing again in the future. Thank you very much.

We booked this tour one week before our trip and are so glad we did. Our tour guide - Sherry was an absolute gem 💎 in every way. She knew so much of the history of each historical site we visited, pointing out obscure artefact details and relating them to Chinese idioms and cultural superstitions. She always made sure we had enough time to take ample photos and often offered to step in to help us take group shots. We visited Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, The Ming Tombs, Drum & Bell Towers and the Great Wall - and we had an absolute blast in each one. Blessed with good weather and Sherry's kind motherly care, we really developed a fondness and respect for China's ancient history and culture. We can't wait to be back!

I had an enjoyable tour experience with Andy (tour guide) and Mr Qu (driver). They were punctual and were always friendly. Andy is a knowledgeable guide who has a great sense of humour. The lunches were delicious, and one of the best things is having a vehicle all to your own group. On a whole, this is a good private tour option for those travelling as a family or with seniors.

Our tour guide Xiao Wang was incredibly professional, attentive and friendly. He gave clear, easy-to-follow explanations. I travelled with a young child, and he looked out for us throughout the whole trip. I can highly recommend him! We really enjoyed our tour with Xiao Wang.

The hotel was acceptable, but this tour group was from mainland China, and the tour guide's professionalism needs improvement. They didn't consider the needs of the group members when getting on and off the bus (such as restroom breaks), and they weren't clear about the prices of optional activities, which led to misunderstandings among the group. When we got off the bus, the guide just kept walking ahead without ever looking back to check on us. Some of the elderly members couldn't keep up, and the guide walked very fast. It felt like we had to desperately chase after them every day. At the attractions, the guide just recited information without actually leading a tour. The meals were very poor, the quality was comparable to cheap two-dish rice meals, just not eaten on the street. Each day ended around 3:00 PM, and although it was advertised as a 5-day trip, it was effectively only 3 days. I paid $3280, and I estimate this tour would cost around $1000 in mainland China; the markup is significant. The only positive was the airport transfer, which was punctual and efficient. The tour guide's service was extremely poor.

What an amazing trip to Beijing! Exploring the huge Forbidden City and hiking the Great Wall gave us unforgettable memories. The acrobatic show exceeded our expectations‑it was energetic, fun and full of brilliant acts. It is fascinating to see ancient heritage alongside wonderful live entertainment. We loved every minute of our stay in Beijing.
