Fantastic tour for seeing the Pandas 🐼 our guide Murphy was brilliant, had very good English and sense of humour. Happy to take lots of photos for us and explain the history and process for Buddist praying in Lama temple. Would have been nice to walk around the Summer Palace building but understand half day tour is limited for time, the lake and cruise was stunning.

China is a fantastic country, and its nation is welcoming and cordial. It offers a perfect balance between history and the present, nature and progress, and safety and quality of life. All of this is perfectly demonstrated by the wonderful, welcoming, and friendly guide Vanessa.

We had an absolutely fantastic private tour of Beijing with Mary Wang. Her deep knowledge of ancient Chinese history and culture was matched only by her infectious enthusiasm. Mary's passionate and engaging storytelling made the city's rich heritage come alive for us. It was a genuine pleasure and a privilege to experience Beijing with such an exceptional guide. We highly recommend her services without reservation.

Our private Beijing city tour with Mary Wang was an unforgettable experience. Mary is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also wonderfully fun-loving. Her passion for sharing China's history and culture is truly contagious, and her energetic storytelling made the entire tour both educational and immensely enjoyable. We felt honored to have her as our guide and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Very interesting tour, especially the pandas and palace. The guide Mary was superb, really took her time to explain everything carefully. As we are a deaf couple, we required additional assistance with translation and Mary did a fantastic job with this. We are very satisfied with the tour and tour guide.
