    Had a great tour and a great guide. Climbing the Great Wall at 40 degrees Celsius needs a bit of fitness 🤣

    Very high level and dysfunctional tour. Pros: Lunch was good and all 3 attractions are amazing and must see but tour was a complete let down. Cons: 1. Company is dysfunctional and they put me on wrong tour. After wasting 2 hours and endless back and forth, they finally put me on right tour. 2. Guide had very shallow knowledge and was very casual. Unlike other tour guide, he had no flag and we somehow had to follow his hand in a very crowded area. He was a short guy and his hand was hardly visible. So every 5 minute, tour had to wait for another 10 minutes for everyone to get together. He also had no audio devices and it didn’t even matter because he hardly told us anything. It was more of a walking tour which we could have done our own. 3. They didn’t purchase any tickets in advance although we booked tour 1-2 weeks in advance. As a result we wasted more than 2 hours of tour time just to stand in line and purchase tickets. 4. As a result of all the chaos, we hit peak rush hour traffic on the way back and didn’t get back until 830 pm (long 13 he day). They tried to drop us few miles away from our hotel telling us we can just walk for 45 minutes to our hotel. We put our foot down and said no way. In the end, they did drop us somewhat close to our hotel

    Had a great time on this tour and got to see Beijing's highlights pretty efficiently! Got picked up at our hotel, enjoyed the forbidden city in the morning. Lunch was Chinese food and pretty tasty. Had plenty of time to climb and see the wall!

    The tour was great. We had an amazing guide. She was very knowledgeable and was open for every customer request. The day was perfectly planned. The only downside and the reason for just 4 stars is the factory tour. The salesman there tried hard to sell their products, even if I told them that I do not want to to buy something. This made me feel a bit uncomftable. However, I assume this is how they finance the tourprice and therefore part of the game. Anyway, thanks for the nice day

    It's a full day, the forbidden city is huge,you really can't appreciate how big the place is until you've been. And Tiananmen square is again massive. When you go to the great wall, see if the guide can take you to the unrestored part, it's as it was and there's no crowds, you really don't want crowds when your trying to climb those massive steps, one foot in front of the other

    The tour was well done. Our Guide was Liu and he was very good. He took a lot of extra steps to ensure a good trip. He also had a lot of knowledge. What we didn’t like is the lunch stop. Food was cold and poor standard. Rest trip was good with some jade store stop where we didn’t buy anything. Neither did others. So the store was very unhappy. It showed on their faces.

    Our guide Lee was very knowledgeable of China history other then that very disappointed. Nothing in the caption said anything about the stops they made to the Jade, silk and tea places. My wife did try on a dress at the silk factory and our tour guide was standing with us trying to convince her to buy it and I was getting very upset and we left. The Jade factory they hounded you and then after the Great Wall they said they were taking us to a tea shop and if we liked it we can purchase some, at this point we told him we did not want to go and they still pulled up in front and we told him again we do not want to go and then we left. Not happy at all and can’t recommend this trip !! Anything we do from here on out for tours if it is not on the agenda we are not doing it !!
