Great Wall - Fantastic service from start to finish.

5.00Fantastic service from start to finish. The entire experience was seamless, from booking the trip through to being picked up by the driver. Li Haitang was excellent throughout the day, helping to arrange all the necessary tickets and providing different options for accessing the Great Wall, including taking the cable car up and the toboggan slide back down. During the journey, he was friendly and accommodating, even offering the option to play my own music during the 90-minute drive. He also allowed me as much time as I wanted to explore the Great Wall at my own pace, which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Li Haitang for this tour and any other trips he offers. His professionalism, flexibility, and excellent service made the experience truly enjoyable.

5.00The guide tour Iris was incredibly helpful and kind! She took care of everything with a smile and showed us around while explaining historical and cultural facts. She also took pictures of us in all the places. I highly recommend it for non-mandarin speakers and first time visitors of China:)

5.00Highly recommend the tour! We went to Jinshanling section of the Great Wall. The view is amazing and there was hardly another soul insight. You can really soak up the history of this magnificent place. Even the 7 yo had a great time walking along the wall. We had Adam as our guide. He is very knowledgeable, considerate, accommodating and pleasant. His English is very good. We chatted about China and people’s life and it was very interesting to me. We had an amazing time. It’s the a highlight of our Beijing trip.

5.00I showed up an hour early at our meeting place and my guide Joyce came shortly after. I had forgotten this was a private tour and was happy to learn Joyce would design our tour to what I wanted to experience. Her English was excellent and her history of the common person informative. This is a walking tour and Joyce will guide you to what you're interested in.

5.00Our guide, Sonia, led us on an amazing two days through Beijing. As a local with great English, her insights into life into Beijing life was very insightful. We spent the first morning along at the Simatai section of the Great Wall - highly recommended for the views and smaller crowds. Sonia then showed us around the other key sights of Beijing, including a recommendation for a great yum cha lunch. Sonia's insights on the life in China and Beijing and growth of this dynamic country made our couple of days wonderful.
