We really enjoyed our tour of the Summer Palace and Temple of Heaven with Beijing Terry and his driver in May, 2019. Terry was knowledgeable and patient, especially with my wife who has advanced arthritis, and had to walk more slowly and rest from time to time. Terry was also very flexible, letting us take as many pictures as we wanted, visit with people we met along the way, and have our photos taken in Emperor and Empress costumes. The Summer Palace in the morning was so lovely with its Long Corridor with its 14000 colored paintings and Tower of Buddhist Incense. We took a boat across tranquil Kunming Lake to the 17 Arches Bridge leading to Nanhu Island and its Rain Temple. Then, at our request, Terry took us to Da Wan Ju restaurant for a delicious Peking Duck. So good! In the afternoon we toured the beautiful Temple of Heaven site, and learned much about its history, significance, and structure. Terry is very kind, has a good sense of humor, and treated us likely family. He was open to help us see whatever interested us. We highly recommend his services. Thank you, Terry!

We had only a 22h layover to visit Beijing and retained the services of John Terry, who was very helpful in making the best out of it with optimal suggestions for transportation, lodging and site visits.. On top of being an excellent communicator, he proposed us a tailor-made private tour that allowed us to visit that main attractions in Beijing in a stress-free schedule. Do not have any worry in retaining his services. Daniel
