7 day Beijing trip with China Highlights
We were in Beijing for 7 days and went to the Great Wall, Gubei Watertown, Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Lama Temple, Beihai Park, Confucius Temple, Ming and Qing Tombs. Also went to watch the Acrobatic Show and the Golden Mask Show. The views are fantastic and the shows are amazing. Our tour guide, Colin, from China Highlights was awesome. He planned our itinerary flawlessly and took us to restaurants that served great authentic local food. Colin is very caring of my elderly mother and provided superb service. Thank you, Colin, for making my trip memorable.
A great time with our excellent guide Jenny
This trip was amazing thanks to our excellent guide Jenny. She was very knowledgeable and led a great tour of the Terracotta soldiers and the Xi’an city walls. She was also very passionate and fun to be with. Our driver was also very professional and the vehicle was nice.
Great tour of Forbidden City and Great Wall with Linda
I had an incredible experience touring the Forbidden City and the Great Wall with Linda as my guide. She was not only extremely knowledgeable about the history and details of each site but also made the entire experience feel personal and engaging. Her friendly and approachable nature made it feel like I was exploring with a friend rather than just following a guide. Linda’s passion for sharing China’s rich history was evident, and she went above and beyond to ensure the tour was both informative and enjoyable. I highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for an unforgettable and well-organized tour!
