Cherry (our guide) was amazing! So friendly and we got to see everything we wanted to in our limited time in Beijing. When I go back to China I will definitely use this service again- the language barrier was more difficult than I anticipated. Cherry even helped us order our lunch!
Had a great day with Ming. Knowledgeable and pleasant, easy company.
MY TOUR WAS CHANGED TO SUIT ME FOR GROUP AND I HAD A GREAT DAY! THANKYOU!
Worth every penny having a personal guide in Beijing. Ming our guide was very informative met us at our hotel then we went in taxi's around the city centre stopping off at the major attractions.
This was a great way to see as many of the sights of Beijing as possible without having to figure out how to get there and what to do when you get there. We didn't have to wait in any lines at ticket booths and we able to accomplish a lot in a short time. Well worth the money. If we return, we will use this service again.
We were able to see things that the ordinary tourist would not be able to see. Having our own guide for our group of four made seeing Beijing and exciting time. This was the second day that we had the same guide and he did an excellent job explaining the sights we encountered,
Amazing. Lei my guide was great. I met with him in the morning and went through the places i wanted to visit. The night before he recommended getting a car/driver for the day to cover as much ground as possible and i laughed when he showed up the next day with my own mini bus and driver. But what a great idea...it meant i actually managed to cover 2 other main sites i wouldn't have had change to get too otherwise. Lei was a very patient guide, great command of english and answered every questions i had with enthusiasm (and i'm sure he must have been asked the same things time and time again). Lei had studied history so it was great to have someone with such extensive knowledge.
The name of the guide assigned to us through Viator was Better Ren (English name). He was great! For an extra fee he was our driver too and used a comfortable buick mini-van. We visited the Great Wall and the Summer Palace. He was quite knowledgeable and passionate about Chinese history and culture. He was a great conversationalist and spoke with us on a broad range of topics beyond the history and significance of the sites we visited. I highly recommend using his services, if you are planning a trip to Beijing and want to see a variety of sites.
The best idea ever!! Would consider doing this everyday of our vacation if we return to China
We would recomend this to anyone going to China. You decide where you want to go and how long you want to stay. The only thing is ... be prepared to pay for taxi (inexpensive) and entrance fees. So nice to be able to absorb the culture without being rushed. Loved our guide and this tour!
Perfect way to see Beijing and a great value for the money. We loved it so much we ended up booking again for a 2nd day to see everything we didn't have time for on the first. Wonderful and knowledgeable guides...just a pleasurable experience all around!
A very good day with an experienced guide who liaised carefully with us, and who was helpful and informative throughout the day.
Our guide was very friendly and informative. We had an exceptionally pleasant trip to Beijing with this tour guide service. The only problem was that the air conditioning in the bus was not working.. felt like we were in a sweat lodge! I'm sure this detail has been addressed for the comfort of future tourists.
