Great Wall of China at Badaling and Ming Tombs Day Tour from Beijing

Beijing, China

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review

Enjoyable tour. Would have preferred more time at the Great Wall and less time at the jade and ceramic factories. Only 1.5 hrs at the wall wasn't enough to do everything we wanted to do. Guide's English was ok, but not great.

Istanbul, Turkey

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review

Great full day of seeing the highlights of Istanbul. Good guide with good English. Only negative was an unscheduled stop at a rug shop to show how rugs are made that turned out to be a high pressure sales pitch to buy something. Would have been five stars without that negative aspect.

Good tour to get an overview of ancient Rome. Guide was somewhat hard to understand as English was not the best, but it was OK. Use of headphones was very helpful. Being able to skip the line saved a lot of time.
