Our guide Jessica known as Jo was a most informative guide to give us a wonderful experience and background to the very important sites to see in Beijing. It is a must do excursion
Melody is a amazing guide. We enjoyed the summer palace and beijing zoo I was surprised for how large the summer palace is. And thanks again for Melody’s introduction. Recommended.
Great tour! Our guide Linda Shi was really kind and guided us through the tour very attentively! Would recommend
Melody has been a great guide for our group of 8, coming to pick us up at the airport and guiding us through the historical aspects of the Great Wall in th Mutianyu section. We needed a private tour to the Great Wall from Beijing Capital Airport 6am - 10am before taking our flight and it has been a smooth and amazing experience!
The trip with Jessica was excellent!!! She explains everything very well and has enough time to enjoy all the stops of the tour. Even going on holiday season in China, we felt super calm. The lunch was also amazing. It was one of the best meals we had on the trip. The price is also competitive. Super Indico!
Great customized guide tour. nice pictures spot and Jessica could even apply to become a professional photographer :) thank you !
Meeting Melody was simply wonderful. Super professional, smart, cheerful and very friendly. Melody is an excellent tourist guide. I highly recommend!!!!!! ♥️♥️
Lili was again on February 2. Day our guide and this time we visited the main sights in Beijing. It was breathtaking and far exceeded our expectations. The sunny weather certainly contributed to this and although at the end of November we enjoyed it. Recommended safe spring or autumn. It's supposed to be very hot in the summer. Lili told us a lot about the different emperors and their families this time. Right in the places where they lived, it was very exciting. The tour was very professionally planned and we did not experience any negative surprises. Anytime again.
A lovely person left my scarf in the car and brought it to me A heaven Charming and very very nice Honored Besides friendly and pleasant
My second visit to the Great Wall with my friends who were first time visitors to China. Thanks Jack for the great knowledge and experience. Even for a second trip to the Great Wall of China, the experience remains refreshing and I still have many questions and thoughts about this spectacular marvel. I would advise anyone visiting Beijing to make their way to the Great Wall using this personalised service from Jack as you will never regret it. Thank you Jack for your wonderful service and experience.
