Reviews summaryWe had an absolutely wonderful day exploring Beijing with our amazing English speaking tour guide, Mina. From the moment we met her, she was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly. Mina took us to some of China's most iconic sites, including the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and Tiananmen Square. She brought each location to life with fascinating stories and insights, making the experience so much more meaningful. She also took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch, where we enjoyed delicious local cuisine, and introduced us to a traditional tea ceremony, which was a real highlight of the day. Mina's warmth, professionalism, and passion for sharing Chinese culture made this an unforgettable experience. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Beijing. Thank you, Mina, for such a fantastic day!
Booked a private all-inclusive day tour in Beijing, covering Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall on 19 Apr 25. Our guide, Sherry, and driver, Lin Hai, were exceptional. Sherry’s deep knowledge and insightful commentary brought each historical site to life, while Lin Hai’s expert driving ensured a smooth and comfortable journey throughout the day. Despite it being a weekend with large crowds, Sherry navigated us through each location efficiently, allowing us to maximize our time without feeling rushed. Her ability to manage the itinerary seamlessly demonstrated her professionalism and experience. A highlight of the tour was the lunch at a clean and pleasant restaurant near the Great Wall. The buffet spread exceeded expectations, offering a variety of delicious dishes that catered to different tastes. The service staff were also attentive and food experience for me is impt. Mutianyu provided breath-taking views and inclusion of a round-trip cable car tickets made the visit more accessible and enjoyable. Overall, the tour was well-organized, informative, and offered excellent value for money. For travelers with limited time in Beijing, this tour is a perfect way to experience some of the city’s most iconic landmarks. I highly recommend this tour, especially with Sherry and Lin Hai, for an unforgettable and enriching experience.
I’ll start by saying this tour has easily been one of my best ever, and one I’d highly recommend for anyone to experience Beijing! Andy, my guide, was an absolute gem. He shared a wealth of knowledge at each point and was always on the lookout for a prime photo spot! Tiananmen Square ended up forcibly closing right as our day was about to get started, but luckily Andy was nice enough to secure my ticket for the following day. The Forbidden City is a wonderful place of vast history to appreciate. Andy will make sure you leave knowing everything there is to know about it. The tour includes a private driver, who was also a gem. This helped make the whole process stressfree and seamless. The Great Wall is a wonder of the world for a reason, and absolutely breathtaking in person. Taking the slide down is quite fun! If coming in the winter months, definitely prepare for some cold (and windy) mornings! Thank you again, Andy!
We booked this tour and had an absolutely wonderful experience! Our driver was fantastic and was waiting for us at the airport exactly as arranged, which made everything easy and stress-free. Our guide was also incredibly kind, knowledgeable and attentive. When she saw that the queues at Tiananmen Square were around three hours long, she quickly adjusted the plan and drove us around the area instead, so we could still see it without wasting most of our limited time waiting in the heat. It was an extremely hot day, and she kindly gave us tissues and peppermint cooling spray, which we really appreciated. Throughout the tour, she shared so much interesting history and explained everything clearly and enthusiastically. We were incredibly happy with both our guide and driver. They made our short time in Beijing memorable, comfortable and very well organised. We would highly recommend this tour, especially to anyone visiting Beijing during a long airport layover.
I had an absolutely fabulous trip with Judy. For starters her English is fantastic and she is easy to understand. She gave me lots of history and background about the Great Wall, Forbidden City and Tianamen Square. With Judy's expert advice we didn't get out and walk Tianamen Square sadly as it was Summer Holidays and so everyone was there. We drove around instead and she pointed out the 2hr long queue we would have to join if we walked. Thanks for the pro tip!! Mr Wong, our driver was great too. Excellent driving, very comfortable car. And there was even a peach waiting for me when he picked me up. Caught a Didi the next day and instantly wished I had Mr Wong back! Apart from the surreal-ness of being on the Great Wall, one of my favourite parts would have been the Tea House that Judy took me too. I LOVE my teas and so this was an extra experience that absolutely made my day. Judy also helped me to arrange extra activities after the tour and even helped booked me on another tour the next morning before I left. She truly gave me the Beijing experience and I loved every moment of it. Would I do this again with Judy? In a heart beat! Best tour and tour guide!!! Oh and don't forget to luge down the Great Wall. So much fun, again, thanks Judy!
We had a great day trip with SNOW with our excellent tour guide Andy and a wonderful driver Mr Zhang (in his brand new car!!). Andy met us at 8am at our hotel lobby, and brought us through Tiananmen Square, forbidden city and the Great Wall at Mutianyu. Good explanation in both Mandarin and English. Lunch was a western buffet lunch (ok food if you are not picky) above a jade shop. It suddenly snowed quite heavily (first time this winter) when we arrived at MutianYu Great Wall, so we missed out on the toboggan but still had fun on the ski lift. Andy brought us to a tea shop to taste some interesting tea, which we did eventually buy as souvenirs. And they were able to drop us at our dinner venue post-tour. All in, we had a fantastic day with Andy and Mr Zhang.
we have a great and wonderful experience for this trip. The tour guide Ms. Ranee, she is very good in explained all the places and soooo detail, very nice and helpful ( help us to order something and deliver to our hotel 😊). we also got very nice driver and drove very good. thank you for help us so we can have a great holiday 🙏🏻🥰
I think it was a very exhilarating and interesting experience as guide Mina knew a lot about the historical aspects of the sites that we visited. Her explanation was extremely detailed and I really enjoyed asking more about the history of China with her. Driver Jason was also very strategic when it comes to choosing the best routes to avoid heavy traffic and congestion! The trip ran smoothly and Mina was also willing to take pictures of me in the Great Wall of China!
Fantastic experience! Our guide Andy and driver 张师傅 were very kind and patient. Big thanks to Andy for thoughtfully looking after my aged, slow-moving parents every step of the way, such that we could enjoy each attraction fully. Thank you very much!
I can’t recommend this tour enough! Everything was absolutely perfect. From the first to the last minute, our guide Lucy was fantastic: before the time scheduled, she was already in the lobby waiting for us. The car was impeccable, clean and comfortable, and our driver was extra careful in our journey. Lucy took us through all the checkpoints as smoothly as it can be, explained all the history of every single part of the tour and didn’t leave a single question unanswered. And I can’t even mention how astonishing were all the pictures of our group she took, a professional photographer disguised as a tour guide. Lucy, once again, thank you so much for being our guide in discovering the wonder of Tiananmen, of the Forbidden City and the Great Wall!
