From other tours with this operator, we expected a well-done tour, and the tour operator did not disappoint. The guide was very knowledgeable and energetic. And he let us explore a bit and take photos, so we did not feel we were on a forced death march even though we covered a lot of ground. The gem of everything we saw in Beijing was the Lama Temple. Beautiful and very educational with our guide. The Summer Palace, which is a collection of buildings around a very beautiful lake, is a place to be treasured more than once. It covers many, many acres and is stunning. On our next trip to Beijing, we will be returning here. This tour was very well done. Educational, good lunch at a very nice place, and the shopping stop was fun. Highly recommended. Consistently good tour company.

Only 8 people on the tour which was great and allowed us to interact more with guide and ask all the questions we wanted. Lunch provided was very good.

Summer Palace close to heavenly experience, Lama Temple great insight into Buddhism. Panda Garden amazing, but duration far too short when bundled into other 2 tours--suggest separate visit.

The tour operator should add a boat ride at the Summer Palace and entrance into the hilltop temple.

The Panda Garden was great, and I really enjoyed the Summer Palace. I liked the Silk Factory and the Pearl Market, but felt a lot of pressure to buy items even when I didn't want them.

Beijing itself wasn't very good - it's too polluted. The highlights of our trip were the tours we took, this one and one to the Great Wall. Wow! They were amazing!

Summer Palace is ordinary, but the other two were good.
