He knows all the best spots that will impress you and that will take visiting Beijing on another level. There are no words to describe how much I recomend this private guide. 🏮🏮🏮 He is the best ever!🪭

          Awesome Experience & Exposure To Chinese Culture
          I had an awesome experience on the Great Wall tour with Maggie! She was incredibly knowledgeable about Chinese culture, making the entire experience both educational and engaging. The tour was very well coordinated, and communication was seamless throughout. Maggie's insights and professionalism truly enhanced the trip. The driver also did a fantastic job, driving smoothly and safely. It's definitely well worth the money – I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience!

          Jam-packed day out in Beijing
          We truly made the most of our day. Thanks to our guide Maggie, we were able to learn, take photos and enjoy the day without stress. From starting at the Forbidden City (seeing Tian’anmen square from afar), then making our way to the Summer Palace, followed by an on the spot addition of a tea experience (free, delicious, only pay for what you buy), some lunch at a great local restaurant (all ordered by Maggie and included), and ending the official part of the tour with the Temple of Heaven (at sunset 😍). To top it all off, Maggie managed to arrange last minute tickets to an acrobatics show which was great - very talented performers. She made sure we arrived on time, got to our seats and had a ride home (lovely driver all day). Thank you Maggie for your kindness, efforts to go above and beyond, and for helping us learn more about each spot and other cultural points. This private and personalised tour really helped us see and do so much, all in a comfortable way.

          Awesome tour and tourguide
          Lingling is an awesome tourguide. Her English is very good and she really goes the extra mile for you. She even took us to as restaurant for some real Beijing cuisine after the tour was already over. Highly recommend you booking a tour with her when you’re in Beijing.

          Amazing Experience with a Fantastic Guide!
          We had an incredible time in Beijing thanks to Ling Ling. She spoke great English, was super friendly, and really knew her stuff. She made every stop interesting and fun. One of the best parts was when she took us to a local restaurant to try a typical Beijing dish. It was something we wouldn’t have discovered on our own, and it made the experience even better. If you want a helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly guide, we highly recommend ling ling! She made our tour really unforgettable.

          Once in a lifetime tour and tour guide!!
          A review cannot describe how truly amazing this once in a lifetime tour with Lucy was. We spent hours walking through Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, and Lucy’s knowledge and passion for Chinese history made me feel as though I had been transported back in time. We visited a beautiful Jade gallery and the lovely employees were attentive and thorough, explaining the quality of the jade pieces and its importance in Chinese culture. Then Lucy and I had lunch and she was so attentive, ensuring I had a delicious meal. As we drove to the coup de grace of the tour, the absolutely breathtaking Great Wall of China, Lucy described its history with such vivid detail that when we arrived, it made the experience so much more meaningful. As a solo traveler, tour guides can have a profound impact on your experience when visiting a new country. Lucy made an unforgettable lifetime experience a magical one. My favorite part of the day was walking, talking and laughing with her as we walked the Great Wall. I feel as though I made a friend and when I come back to visit China again, I will make sure to book again with Lucy! She snapped dozens of photos that I’ll cherish forever. Please don’t hesitate to book this trip with Lucy!!! A bucketlist item has been checked off in the most wonderful way!!!!!!!! Thank you, Lucy!

          Barbies in Beijing
          Wendy was truly wonderful - so informative, kind, and genuinely caring. She went above and beyond to support my elderly mother, especially with the challenges of the steps on the Great Wall of China. We felt completely looked after and grateful for her attention to our well-being. Highly recommend!

          The tour was great! Sofia was a great host and having a guide is essential to enjoy the day and understand a little more about local history. Worth the time and the money without a question!
