China Travel Adventure in Beijing
I was provided a detailed itinerary before my arrival in Beijing. My tour guide Ms Lily Liu and driver made sure to it that I saw and did everything on that list, and more. Ms Liu thoroughly explained and answered all my questions on all sites that included: Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, The Great Wall and unplanned visits to an acrobatics show, the Bird's Nest Stadium at Olympic Village, small stores, eateries, and many others. Combine this with her language ability with me, our driver and the many people at all the sites we visited, made for a very enjoyable adventure and absolutely wonderful experience. Great job Ms Liu!
All of Beijing in 3 days
My family had Ethan as our tour guide, and the places he took us to, along with his extensive knowledge of each location, made our trip truly unforgettable. Seeing the pandas at the Beijing Zoo was an incredible experience, and every other stop on the tour was just as enjoyable. Ethan was informative, friendly, and passionate about sharing the history and culture of Beijing. If you’re lucky enough to have Ethan as your tour guide, you’re sure to have an amazing time exploring the city.
Perfect for families
We travelled as a family of five (three kids aged 15, 10 and 8) for three and half days with Ms Lily Liu as our guide. Ms Liu was effectively bilingual and more importantly, patient and kind in answering the many questions posed to her by my kids. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned to accommodate our family’s needs and preferences, including an impromptu cherry picking experience on the way back from a morning at the Great Wall. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in Beijing thanks to Lily!
2 days in Beijing
We had an amazing 2 day tour with Tina Yang to Tiananmen Square, forbidden city and Great Wall! Tina Yang was very informative about each site! Tina gave us lots of tips about the using the trains and even took us on the subway to a local snack street to sample some local snacks! Thank you Tina we had a fantastic 2 days with you and our driver!
Beijing Tour was fantastic
We had an absolutely outstanding experience touring Beijing with Ethan Liu. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about sharing the history and culture of the city. Over several days, Ethan guided us through some of China’s most iconic landmarks, including the breathtaking Forbidden City, the serene and beautifully preserved Summer Palace and of course the unforgettable Great Wall of China. At each site, he brought the history to life with engaging stories, thoughtful context and insights that we would have completely missed on our own. What really set Ethan apart was how well he balanced education, pacing and flexibility. He adjusted the itinerary to suit our interests, made sure we avoided crowds when possible, and was always attentive to our comfort and questions. Even the shopping stops he arranged were enjoyable and pressure-free, giving us a chance to explore local crafts and souvenirs without feeling rushed. Beyond being a guide, Ethan felt like a trusted host in a new country….organized, friendly and deeply committed to making our experience memorable. We left Beijing with a much richer appreciation of its history and culture and that’s largely thanks to him. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Beijing who wants more than just sightseeing, but a meaningful and well-curated journey.
Amazing day trip to the Great Wall and Ming tombs
We had an amazing day trip to Mutianu section of the Wall and the Ming dynasty tombs. Jason was an excellent knowledgeable guide and took care of everything efficiently according to our needs and wishes down to the smallest detail. Our family was driven privately in a large and comfy car. Cherry on top, we forgot a charger in the van and Jason arranged it to be returned to our hotel the same night! Just wonderful.
• Lily is Outstanding – An Absolute Highlight of Our Beijing Trip!
Our time in Beijing completely exceeded our expectations, and that is largely thanks to our incredible tour guide, Lily. She did an absolutely excellent job taking us all around Beijing’s iconic tourist attractions and organizing a fantastic trip to the Great Wall. Lily’s knowledge of Chinese history and the cities we visited is incredibly extensive—she brought every site to life with fascinating insights. Beyond being an amazing history guide, she was a wonderful culinary host. She introduced us to some fantastic local places to eat and gave us brilliant restaurant recommendations for our free time. Lily was so incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make our stay in Beijing unforgettable. If you are visiting, do yourself a favor and request Lily!
China Tours and “Mark” my tour guide.
I can’t say enough about the great experience I had in Beijing with China tour. Our guide “Mark” was absolutely amazing. Not only he spoke fluent English but he had a degree in Chinese history which was very important to us. He took care of us like an older son, stayed with us until we ordered our food, took care of our luggage, stayed with us until we got on to the train to Xian . His Chinese history knowledge was exceptional and we appreciated it. During our visit we saw Great Wall of China, imperial place and forbidden city, shopping areas like Qianmen, the lovely Peking Duck Resturant, and the incredible acrobat show. Having the private tour with private experienced driver and large clean van really helped us. We couldn’t have done this much without this private tour. I would love to come back to Beijing to see more and I’ll be asking for Mark as my tour guide and use China tours for sure.
Very easy booking process and extremely responsive customer service
Very easy booking process and extremely responsive customer service — highly recommended. I booked two separate train journeys through them. For the first one, the original train was cancelled, and they contacted me very quickly to offer seats on the next available departure the same day. Once I confirmed, the booking was processed almost immediately. The second booking went perfectly smoothly from start to finish.
Beijing
We always travel alone, never hire a guide. This time, at the end of our 4000 km China trip - partly due to start of the Golden Week - we got a guide and weren't sorry about that. Mark took us around certain parts of Beijing and The Great Wall. Saved us a lot of time. I'm a geography and history freak, he's got a degree in history and is loaded with facts and stories 👍
Exceptional Service from China Travel and a Stress-Free Beijing Experience with Colin
Visited Beijing for 3 days We had an excellent experience with our tour guide, Colin, during the three days we spent in Beijing. From the very beginning, he stood out for his punctuality, professionalism, and respectful attitude. He was always attentive to our needs and made sure everything went smoothly throughout the trip. One of Colin’s greatest qualities was his deep knowledge of Chinese history and culture. Every place we visited became much more meaningful thanks to his detailed explanations and interesting stories. He answered all our questions with patience and enthusiasm, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. What we appreciated the most was how caring and responsible he was. Before our departure to Xi'an, Colin personally accompanied us to the high-speed train station, made sure we were seated correctly on the bullet train, and helped us feel completely comfortable before leaving. This gesture truly reduced the stress of dealing with an unfamiliar system in a foreign country. We highly recommend Colin to anyone visiting Beijing. He made our trip memorable, easy, and stress-free.
3 days Trip in Beijing/2 days in Shanghai
Communication with our tour advisor Vivi, very informative, got quick and good answers to what we were wondering. Tour guide Mark made some changes in relation to the plan to avoid queues, We didn't see a queue. We were pleasantly surprised that after the agreed program we could choose what we wanted to see / experience from what is possible at the moment. We chose acrobat (we paid for the ticket), Antique market, visited the arena for the summer olympics. We experienced shaft, Deng Yang, Who dressed safely and created security. Experience more than we expected the ceiling experience up from very good to exile. Recommended for those who want to avoid cow and get the most out of the ticket
Best 2.5 days in Beijing
We had an excellent 2.5-day tour thanks to our guide, Tina, and driver, Mr. Lee. Tina is incredibly knowledgeable, providing great historical briefings at every site. She consistently anticipated our needs, even handling our restaurant orders to ensure we had the best food and service. Her suggestion to start at 7:00 AM for the Great Wall was perfect for beating the crowds. Mr. Lee provided safe, comfortable, and efficient rides. He knows the roads perfectly and ensured our transfers, including the final trip to the railway station, were seamless. Highly recommend this professional team for an stress-free Beijing experience!
Great Experience + Tracy is the best you can get
We had an absolutely exceptional experience in Beijing thanks to our guide, Tracy. From the very beginning, she went out of her way to make our trip feel completely personalized and seamless—this was not a one-size-fits-all tour, but something she truly tailored to our specific interests, accommodating even some of our more unusual and detailed requests with patience and enthusiasm. I had a few particularly specific (and sometimes tricky) things I wanted to do—like arranging Taobao orders to be delivered to our hotel—and Tracy was incredibly helpful in making it all happen smoothly. Her willingness to go above and beyond truly made a difference and took a lot of stress off our shoulders. What stood out most was how much she genuinely loves what she does. Her passion for sharing Beijing’s history and culture was evident in every site we visited. She brought each location to life with fascinating stories and insights, making the experience both educational and engaging. Our itinerary included the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven, both of which were made far more meaningful through Tracy’s detailed explanations and thoughtful pacing. In addition, she thoughtfully added extra stops for us, including the White Pagoda, Hutong shopping street, and a traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy—experiences that made the trip feel even more special and unique. Tracy’s professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made this an unforgettable experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Beijing.
