The venue is nothing to write home about (I guess China is not too fussed about the 'atmosphere' of an experience), but the food was very good and the acrobatic show was simply incredible. This is a very fun evening out, great for a larger group. We would definitely do this again.

A wonderful experience all around. We didn't think we'd enjoy it half as much as we did. Thanks.

The tour guide was exceptional, and the dinner was good! The acrobatic show was incredible as they were all kids, and it was amazing to watch!

The duck banquet is fine. The Chinese acrobatic show is wonderful. I do recommend this, though don't set your expectations too high for the banquet. This tour is really more about the acrobatic show than anything else.

The dinner venue was a bit grubby, but we had courteous service and good food. The acrobatic show was fantastic.

The food was good but it was too much.

The acrobatic show was fantastic. The banquet was great, but it would have been better if they had told us what each dish was.

Whilst the whole idea of this trip was good, and the acrobatic show well worth watching, we felt the Peking Duck dinner was far less glamorous and not as good as we went on to have in a different Peking Duck restaurant in Beijing. Whilst we realized we had to get off to the acrobatic show , we felt the dinner could have been a more Chinese experience and it would have helped if it had felt less like an 'in and out' experience! The food was not the best we had in Bejing and to be honest we would not do it again, or recommend it to anyone else. The show was worth seeing, in fact very good in content, but again the theatre and costume was very tatty and the theatre was certainly not one we would want to go to again. Not our thing I am afraid!

Probably worst dining experience we have ever experienced. No presentation, poorly trained staff were hopeless. Very disappointed. Service in KFC easily 10 times better. We left our uneaten duck on the table and walked out. Would suggest great acrobatic show be done separately.

The evening turned out to be a disaster. The original pickup vehicle got into an accident and did not make it to our hotel. We had to keep calling the local tour operator to get any info on their progress. Eventually we took our own cab to the dinner site, for which we were refunded. However the cab ride should have taken 20 minutes but took almost an hour, so we were very late for dinner. The restaurant was empty at dinner time and the food was unappealing. Since we did not want dinner after the acrobat show and we otherwise had 15 minutes left for dinner, so we cancelled the activities and were reimbursed in total. The local contact was understanding and helpful and he took us to another restaurant. The uncertainties and bad logistics of the evening made for a very forgettable experience.
