Highly reccomend booking this tour! Had a group of 3 that booked the two day tour and had Jerry as our guide. Cannot say enough wonderful things about him! His English was fantastic, he and his partner were always punctual when picking us us, and he was very clear to communicate any kins of chges to our itinerary. Our mornings started at 7am with a pick up from the hotel and then we were dropped back off around 4-5pm. The tours were well worth the price, and again, can't say enough postive things about Jerry, our guide. He made sure to include detailed descriptions at every site, ordered two fantastic lunches for us at uthentic restaurants, and was extremely patient with answering all of our questions. If you only have a couple of days in Beijing, I would strongly reccomend booking this tour to see a lot of the major sites around the city!
