Amazing Lucy - We just returned from a full day trip to the summer Palace and the wall. We were so fortunate to have the best guide we ever had in China. I’m saying that after multiple visits to China the past 25 years. Lucy was charming, knowledgeable, accommodating, and fluent in English. Very highly recommend using Lucy.

Brilliant tour, Amazing guide, Fantastic day! - We only had one day to see Beijing and this trip encompassed so much. Our guide, Linda, was really lovely and made the whole day smooth and a real joy to experience. The Great Wall was amazing, views are stunning and we opted for the chair lift/taboggan ride which was so much fun! We then went to the Summer Palace which was stunning and Linda entertained us with stories from its history. This was an amazing tour with a wonderful guide and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to explore what Beijing has to offer.

An amazing tour! - We did this as a private tour and we had an amazing knowledgable guide in Bob. In the morning we visited The Summer Palace which was beautiful and Bob knew his stuff as well as all the good angles to take photos from. We stopped off for lunch en route to the Mutianyu part of the Great Wall which again was at one of these places attached to shopping and in this case it was jade outlet. Having said that we were very impressed with the master carver and proceeded to purchase a jade family generational ball and 2 puxie dragons which were not cheap but its one of those purchases we wont ever make again! The food was ok a buffet mixture of chinese and international. I think when doing a private tour again we would speak up and discuss the place we would prefer to eat at as this is also an experience as to why we came to Beijing. In the afternoon we arrived at the Wall and this was truly an amazing experience. Would highly recommend going up in the ski lift as long as the weather is good and coming down in the toboggan which was a thrill ride!
