Great operator

Unfortunately, the day we were due to go to the Summer Palace it was raining heavily and we decided not to go. Even though we had received our tickets from Lily's Tours, I requested a partial refund and was promptly refunded. I really appreciated the flexibility! We loved Beijing and will definitely be back to experience Summer Palace, and I will definitely be booking with Lily!

Summer Palace F&E

Perhaps the weather was not too good - cloudy and even low season, it was terribly crowded. It was kind of far from Beijing downtown to this place, so it made sense to spend at least 2-3 hours in this garden. Guess it is still an eye opener for those who have not visited a summer palace.
