          A lovely daytrip outside Beijing
          I am so glad I chose this tour that takes you outside Beijing to the city of Tianjin by high speed train. We saw so many sites - the last emperor's residence, the porcelain house, Italian village, traditional shopping areas, and the waterfront area. Plus, we had a delicious lunch at a dumpling restaurant. Tianjin is famous in China for their dumplings. Our guide, Aaron, was excellent. He was super nice, took lots of photos of my husband and I, and explained things very well. I really appreciated that he ordered 2 special dumplings for me at the restaurant when I told him I mostly eat just vegetables. I highly recommend this tour. (The high speed train is the icing on the cake.)

          I can make dumplings now, Yay!
          I am so happy today as I learned how to make traditional dumplings in 5 different ways from Ms Li! Ms Li is an awesome teacher who is very patient and explains things well. Her deep love and knowledge of Chinese cuisines speak for itself in her instructions and sharings. Her class is not only rich in content but also very fun. I can't wait for my next cooking class with her!

          Great show and clear organization
          The show is great and it's an immersion into chinese culture, with its traditional music and costumes. Acrobats are amazing! The organization was super Clear and all went smoothly, even if nobady at theatre spoke English ;) Li from organization contacted us to give us all important info and then to check if everything was ok, very nice and caring! I surely recommend!

          Trip to red theatre
          Probably one of the most amazing acrobatic shows I’ve seen. Simple and efficient management. Helpful staff. Mind blowing tricks.

          Amazing day
          I really enjoyed my tour with Mr Aaron! He has extensive knowledge of China's history and explains everything very clearly. Chengde is definitely a must visit!

          Wonderful trip for a layover in Beijing!
          We had a layover in Beijing for 24 hours and we we decided to visit Great all. Sunflower organised the trip and Mr Cao was our driver. We arrived very early and , we had a meeting point at Starbucks. Mr Cao helped us with the luggage, the 7 seater car was clean. He drove us safely , showed us where to buy tickets and waited for us with no restrictions on how much time we spent at Great Wall . We highly recommend having a driver , it is worth it and what an opportunity to see this landmark. We really appreciate the wonderful communication with Sunflower. Thank you very much !!!

          Wonderful Evening
          Had an incredible evening at the Red Theatre Acrobatics show! Li organised everything for me and was super responsive in the lead up and on the day, making sure I had everything I needed. I couldn't recommend her or the show enough! Very happy ☺️

          Great experience
          We went to the acrobatics show and found it to be a great experience. Kids (5 & 10) really enjoyed the show as well. Also want to thank Miss Li who helped us with sharing the tickets and directions to the Red theatre when I was having issues with my mobile connectivity.

          A great show!
          The show was really stunning and enjoyable! We had such a great time, and things were incredibly smooth with Ms Li's help - she gave really clear instructions, booked us great seats, and regularly checked in to make sure that things were going as planned. We chose to use this website because there are so many others out there and we weren't sure who was reliable. Will definitely recommend for those wanting to see incredible acrobatics!

          Fast, Friendly and Magnificent
          Everything was very convenient! Mr Zhang was waiting for us at the airport and took us straight to the Great Wall. We explored for a few hours and took in the incredible sights and Mr Zhang was waiting to take us directly to our hotel. Great experience and worth the money!

          Very pleasant tour
          Mr Aaron was our tour guide this morning. Aaron is very knowledgeable, and gave us very detailed explanations to most of historical places and very patient. My dad is very old and he also made extra effort to help him at times and slow down for him to rest.
