We had a great day with Terry- who was a knowledgeable, and good fun, guy! He related expecially well to our teenage son. He comes strongly recommended!

I did the full-day tour of the Summer Palace, Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven tours that included lunch. The tour was expertly led by tour guide Terry along with a driver who was expert at negotiating the city’s traffic. Terry speaks English well and is quite knowledgeable. He was a font of wisdom at each site and was easily able to address all of my questions. Terry also had suggestions for the best spots for photographs. I had another appointment near the end of the appointed tour time, so Terry kept each location’s tour to the essentials. But I’m positive that if requested, he would allow more time for wandering and absorbing the sense of history at each location. The lunch at a restaurant frequented by locals with few tourists was fabulous with bountiful quantities and exquisite flavors.

We were in Beijing during the Chinese New Year...there were four of us in our group and we were looking for the best day tour that would encompass as much of Beijing as possible in one day. Terry was fantastic! He has such a great knowledge of the city, and speaks wonderful English. The day is full of walking, so make sure you are in comfortable shoes. We were looking for some places to shop and he gave us wonderful recommendations and went out of his way to find a store for us while we were on the tour. It is those little extra things that he does/says that makes the tour so worth it. I would highly recommend booking any tour with Terry while you are visiting Beijing :)
