“We had the most spectacular trip and tour for 2 days with Linda Shi. She has a great personality and definitely had the depth of knowledge to lead us all around Beijing and visit the “must sees.” She answered questions with ease, pointing out unique and memorable things to really make sure we got the most out of the tour. She also took us to great lunch places, away from the throngs of tourists. The driver we had was great, a good driver, with a luxurious, clean car. What a great way to spend 2 days learning about and seeing Beijing. I highly recommend Linda and this tour company if…”

“This was a great two-day tour, the shuttle picked us up at the hotel on time. Taking a tour is very convenient as both guides (we had 2 different guides each day) were showing the way and giving the guidelines on where to go. For Day 2 (glass bridge etc) I'd recommend to give more time to go down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. We did not have enough time to return back (2 hours). Thank you”
