The 3 things most travelers are looking for when taking on an adventure. Booking was very easy with plenty of contact from the operator to confirm everything. Met our driver Jason and Nico in the morning on time. Nico was fantastic, great knowledge of the sites we visited & we enjoyed our local restaurant lunch of Dumplings. Really appreciated the company looking after us & both Nico & Jason for looking after us the whole way.

We did this private tour on our last day in Beijing and I would highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide was Joyce and she was very knowledgeable and personable. First we visited Tianemen square and the Forbidden City. Then we had a delicious lunch. Joyce asked us what type of food we liked and because we liked spicier Chinese food she took us to a great local spot. We then visited Summer Palace which was gorgeous. Since we had some time left Joyce was so nice to ask us if we wanted to see anything else, and we decided to go to the Lama Temple. We visited several other cities in China prior to this and booked private tours for most sightseeing. It definitely gives you a better experience and allows you to go at your own pace.
