Jednodňový výlet do Pekingu: Kniežací palác Gong, Letný palác a Starý letný palác

Huge place. Guides were quite clear. Weather was very hot so it was a good idea to top up for the boat ride and tram.

There were two different guides. One for Prince Gong’s Mansion and another for the Summer Palace and Old Summer Palace. Both guides were equally knowledgeable and shared plenty historical insights. As this is a combined tour with participants from different booking platforms, the guides were occasionally busy coordinating various requests. It is also important to note the additional costs during the tour (200 RMB) that need to be paid directly to the tour guide.

The tour was great but it didn't cover lots of places in the Summer Palace because it's too big. Since I chose to use the boat ride, I didn't have the chance to walk along the bridge. One disadvantage of following this tour if you are solo is that you will feel the need to follow the majority in choosing whether to use boat ride or tram because if you don't, you may get lost on your own or cannot catch up with the group as even the guide is using boat ride. For Old Summer Palace, the guide was very good as he explained everything which is essential to enjoy the tour of the ruins. Otherwise, you are just looking at piles of ruins in Old Summer Palace.

tour is in mandarin. morning we went to prince gong mansion, however some hiccups when getting tickets for passport holders kinda delayed our starting time. but the overall tour is still nice. for summer palace and old summer palace, there's some additional fees needed for boat ride and XR van ride. still worth it though, as the day was hot and we definitely couldn't finish exploring the place just by foot. both tour guides for both places are very knowledgeable. we enjoyed the tour very much.

We had 2 different guides for the day, the morning Guy was good, professional and knows his stuff, the afternoon lady was just like an usher. Did not like the change of guide arrangement but was not a choice. The tour was good, the place beautiful and informative. Worth the money, just forget the afternoon guide.

我觉得我在北京遇到最有人情味的事情就是遇到了这个团、这个导游，她的名字是张雨晴。 我必须要说的是她真的是一个很到位、很体贴、很棒的导游，每个景点、每段历史都讲解得非常好，人也特别好，我真心很喜欢她。她还为我们推荐了很多道地的美食地点，让整个旅程更加难忘。 I will strongly recommend her to everyone! I am from Malaysia and I’ll definitely suggest her to all my friends who are planning to visit Beijing. I really wish I could meet her in every trip I join. So if you are going to Beijing, please look for her, you won’t regret it!

小張導很用心解釋的詳細，頤和園的遊船和園明園的搭特別的時光巴士回到過去很新鮮👍推薦要來體驗一下

experience was good! we go to visit the main attractions and had a good time. the lunch was pretty rushed and we had our lunch on the bus. other than that, it was perfect! we even got brought to bird’s nest with a top up. the boat ride was abit boring bc the boat moves quite slowly but that also means more time to take pics!

行程安排合理，導遊小董的講解十分詳細，十分體貼團友，會安排先坐下再作長時間的講解，整體感覺良好，只是景點因為屬於歷史文化類型，比較沉悶

王導講解的很詳細，一開始門票資料有問題，也迅速協助排解，每個站點的說明都很清楚。最後還協助自費參觀鳥巢體育場導覽活動，真的非常超值。
