We went to Jinshanling part of the Great Wall which was nicely restored and quiet. Kurt took us to a local farmhouse for lunch after the Great Wall hike and the dishes were delicious. Be sure to try the local tofu. On the other days we went to the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven, and Lama Temple. We did short stops for the Peking University, Bird's Nest, and the Water Cube. Kurt took us to Manjie Dumplings for lunch and I would highly recommend the eggplant dish. Overall, a balanced itinerary and we had free time in the evenings. Thank you, Kurt, for a memorable intro to Beijing! Less

MajaLife long memories made thank you Murphy!This was an amazing day - well paced for everyone. I did this tour with my baby and felt so welcomed and at ease. Murphy is so knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating - if you want the best tour guide ask for him! It was so convenient to have hotel pick up and nice early start. It was nice to meet a lovely travel group friends. I am happy I reached the summit of Great Wall of China, see a Chinese traditional tea ceremony and have delicious food. Amazing! Thank you for amazing memories!
Ste HTiananmen Square, The Forbidden City & The Great WallWe all had a great day visiting Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City and an Afternoon on The Great Wall. I would recommend tobogganing down if you're able. Our guide Murphy was brilliant and was always on hand to help or answer questions. The lunch was pretty good too, there was plenty of different options and the tea tasting towards the end of the day was enjoyable and tasty! Thanks for a great day.

Mona DInsightful, Engaging Tour with CelineWe had the pleasure of touring the Terracotta Soldiers and the Wild Goose Pagoda with Celine, and she truly made the experience memorable.

Traveling with a small group made it easy to ask questions, and Celine was incredibly informative throughout the day. She didn’t just share dates and facts — she brought the history and culture to life in a way that was easy to understand and genuinely interesting.
At the Terracotta Soldiers, she pointed out details we absolutely would have missed on our own — from the differences in facial expressions and ranks to the fascinating stories behind their discovery. At the Wild Goose Pagoda, her explanations of its religious and cultural significance gave us a much deeper appreciation for the site.
Celine’s knowledge, clarity, and passion for sharing Chinese history really stood out. The only downside of the day was the buffet lunch at the museum—not her fault as navigating a small group tour to a local restaurant would’ve been challenging and take too long. She made up for it though with a fantastic recommendation at a local restaurant for dinner near our hotel.
Overall, we would highly recommend Celine to anyone wanting a rich, well-explained experience in Xi’an. She made the experience far more meaningful. Less
Jason TAn Unforgettable Experience, Thanks to Our Amazing Guide Celine!My partner and I booked this trip on a whim, and we are so glad we did!

She has such a deep knowledge of the history of the Terracotta Warriors and the Dragon Emperor, and her enthusiasm was truly infectious. She pointed out specific relics to look out for in the museum and patiently waited while everyone took their fill of photos.
Celine also showed incredible care for the group. During the rain, she handed out umbrellas and raincoats, and she was constantly doing headcounts to ensure no one was left behind. One thing that really stood out was when she helped an older gentleman who was leaving us early: she booked him a Didi taxi to the train station, helped him with his luggage, and gave him clear instructions on where to check in. She truly went above and beyond for us.
The tour covered the Terracotta Warriors and Museum, Wild Goose Pagoda, the City Wall, and the Muslim Quarter, and also included a complimentary buffet lunch at the Terracotta venue. It was excellent value for money, and we had a great time under Celine's exceptional care. We will definitely be recommending this tour to our family and friends. Less
Mela0208Enjoyable day in Xi’anLily was our guide for our trip in Xi’an, China. She took us to see the pagoda and the terracotta warriors. She is very knowledgeable about history and explained everything in detail to us and in an interesting way for the kids. She recommended us an excellent restaurant where we were able to eat local delicacies such as the famous biang biang noodles, duck and pork ribs. We had an excellent day thanks to Lily and driver from Travel China Guide. Thank
C PGreat experienceWe had such a great experience at the Terracotta Warriors with our guide Rita! The view of the warriors is breathtaking and unique. Our guide Rita was very informative, speaks perfect English, and gave us the right timing for learning and exploring on our own.

Greta NShanghai - a one day taste that is filling!My guide, Ryan, made this one day tour worth every minute. We saw some key highlights of the city (including a river cruise in the fog which made for wonderful moody photos!) but it was the information and insights shared by Ryan that made every location come alive. There were also 2 things not on the itinerary that I wanted to do and Ryan made those happen! Amazing guide and worthwhile experience.
caroline gJames: A Knowledgeable, Accessible Guide to ShanghaiWe were in excellent hands with James. He is very knowledgeable about Shanghai and about China in general - its history, traditions, and economy. He guided us throughout the main visits included in our tour, explaining things in detail at all attractions. He also provided tips on where to go at night, where to eat (especially traditional Shanghainese food), and other places of interest to visit. He speaks very good English and was available via WeChat at all times during our stay in Shanghai.

Foo Chek Shiun DA Wonderful Day In Guiliny friends and I had a wonderful experience in Guilin . The scenic boat ride was indeed as wonderful as what we were told . Although our trip was a hectic 1 day trip , our local guide , named Oscar , made our trip smooth and relaxing with great care and experience. Most of all , he speaks good English, thus provided all of us with clear n useful informations in all expects of the tour and our needs . We all enjoyed this short but wonderful trip.
vickyed888GORGEOUS GUILINMy wife and I recently undertook a trip to China which saw us visit the cities of Guangzhou, Guilin, Chongqing, Hangzhou and Shanghai. Every city in China has its unique attractions and, no doubt, the feature which made Guilin stand out was its limestone hills/ mountains. It is easy to see why people rate Guilin as the most beautiful place in China. Of course, the 4 hour cruise down the Li River is a must and an experience not to be missed or forgotten.

Another outstanding "feature" of our time in Guilin was our tour guide, Oscar Lu. He was not only knowledgeable about the place but he also made his narratives so interesting. Above all, he was always sensitive and attentive to our needs and always looked at things from our perspective. When it was time for our train trip to Chongqing, he gave us a map of the station in Chongqing so that we would know exactly where to go when we got there. He even gave us the name and contact number of the person who was meeting us. Having missed our guide at another station, we greatly appreciated this thoughtful gesture on Oscar's part. Once again, A HUGE THANK YOU, OSCAR!
