A very educational day leaving me with a better understanding of this amazing country. I had my best meal of the week - Hot Pot was delicious. Serena was able to answer my many history questions and was very knowledgeable of the sites. I especially enjoyed our family, cultural and lifestyle discussions.
I found it worth the price to be able to squeeze this itinerary in on a limited schedule. No waiting for others, no shopping excursions, meaningful discussions and we bypassed several long lines. Once in a lifetime.
Thanks Serena! Danny.

Angie is the absolute best guide! We were extremely lucky to have booked this wonderful tour with Angie to the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and Great Wall. She gave us a great overview of both the square and the Forbidden City in the morning part of the tour. We got to pass through easily into the City and she knew all the places to avoid to not get stuck like the rest of the visitors. She also does an in-depth version of the Forbidden City which I will have to do with her the next time I'm in Beijing. The Forbidden City was magnificent but the absolute highlight was the Great Wall. Having the opportunity to be able to go the private commune part of the wall and be the only people there was amazing. My wife and I and our three kids (7, 9 and 11) were so excited and had one of our best experiences vacationing here at the Wall. Highly highly recommend. The trip included a delicious Chinese lunch at the Commune hotel restaurant and our transportation was extremely comfortable and fun. The tour should have ended back at our hotel but Angie went out of her way at the end of the trip and accompanied us to local markets so we could do some souvenir shopping. She even walked us to the subway station and helped us get home afterwards even though our hotel was only two stops away. Thank you so much for being the best tour guide and best overall tour ever Angie.

Maria our tour guide was amazing. We have a 2 year old daughter who has car sickness issues. Our driver was incredible driving us to our destination, so smooth not even noticed the heavy traffic. The van was clean, spacious and comfortable (its new so it’s a plus). We have car seat for our child which was great. We went to the square and walked to the forbidden city in the morning. Highly recommended to get it out of the way less crowded in December. Pictures just doesn’t do justice to appreciate the structures of the palace. Maria was brief to the point and just gives you the interesting history of the palace. We recommended to not bring stroller for your kid but a carry on. The Commune Wall was just breathtaking and incredible. We had a amazing lunch in a nice warm restaurant. The food was incredible, we let Maria order for us, all local food. Then we hike up the wall. Definitely wear comfortable shoes and it’s great to burn off all the good food you ate. We were in the Wall for hours by ourselves no interruptions. Great photo of our family on the Great Wall with no tourist. We appreciate the original Wall with no rebuilt. We recommend this tour, it’s a hidden gem.
