Chinese Opera - The visit to Chinese opera was curious. We loved how the actors and actresses acted, all very agile. We saw the show in the front row, very close to the stage, with a rich jasmine tea and Chinese sweets. One pass! But the best thing was our guide, Cathy. Ever since he picked us up in a great car, he was telling us many curious things about Chinese opera and also about Beijing and some customs of the country. A lovely guide, very friendly and friendly. He left us back at our hotel, not before giving us some magnets for the fridge and a lovely fan. Great deal from Cathy.

Amazing opera experience! - I have been looking forward to seeing opera for many years and finally got the opportunity. Before the show my tour guide explained the plots of the stories which helped me understand the show better, even though there were subtitles. Fascinating part is the way the actors combine the singing, acting and acrobatics to perfection. Special detail are they high platform shoes in which they perform gracefully.
I got picked up from my hotel in a comfortable caravan, quite spacious and fancy, if I may say so, and greeted by my super kind tour guide. She dropped me off to the theatre, all the way to my seat which was just in front of the stage, introduced the history of opera and clicked pictures. Need to mention there were Chinese sweets and jasmine tea served so I had the experience of drinking tea the chinese way.
Oh, yes, and the nice touch- I got a present, a little opera doll souvenir and a magnet as a perfect end of a nice evening.
Would recommend it to everyone!

Peking Opera at its finest - The opera involved 2 individual storylines that showcased the finest of Peking Opera. The costumes and makeup were highly traditional, and the live music definitely complemented the actors’ singing, dancing, and choreography. The acoustics were superb with no microphone required. The actors put on a show that took you back in time and one really felt immersed into the storyline and plot. It was an unforgettable experience!

Wonderful evening with Kathy and a taste of Beijing opera! - We were picked up from our hotel and driven to the venue, Kathy is a wonderful guide who introduced the history of Beijing and Peking opera, giving us a good context before the show. We had the best seats in the house with a table, tea and snacks, and the performance was really interesting, with English subtitles as well!

Great evening event - From start to finish, this experience was truly special. The driver arrived right on time and went above and beyond, helping me find our seats at the theater and even assisting with getting a program. The opera itself was a beautiful and the performance that transported us to another world. The costumes were stunning, and the humor woven into the storytelling kept us captivated throughout. Sipping on tea and enjoying traditional snacks as I watched brought an extra layer of charm to the evening—it felt like a true immersion into Chinese culture. After the show, the driver was waiting for me and took a detour to the illuminated Tiananmen Square which was the perfect end to a perfect night. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an a good experience Beijing!

Awesome opera experience - Cathy our guide was a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic person to explain the show and Chinese culture to us. She explained the history of opera in China and background on its status within the royal family in the Qing dynasty. She set us up with fantastic seats at the theatre and the rides to and from the theatre were very comfortable.
The show itself was beautiful, with live music and live singing. There were 3 different stories told throughout the night, and our favorite was the martial art comedy show ! Overall the night was a great experience for us during our trip in Beijing. Would recommend the show, and Cathy as the guide!
