Traveler reviews
Very fun day and kind people
Wendy and Mr. Fang are both super sweet and accommodating. Very informative and helpful. All the activities proceeded very efficiently and we were able to make the most out of our day without any issues! :D We had so much fun and would definitely book with them again.
Lily was a great guide!

Family Friendly
We had such a wonderful experience with our tour guide, Maggie. She is incredibly sweet, well-spoken, and fluent in both English and Mandarin. Her knowledge of Beijing’s architecture, surroundings, and rich culture truly enhanced our trip. We visited the Panda Zoo and Mutianyu Great Wall of China, and having Maggie with us made everything so smooth—especially when she helped queue for the toboggan ride, which was a huge bonus. For families traveling with kids, Maggie is an excellent choice. She is very hands-on, patient, and genuinely caring with the little ones, which made the experience stress-free and enjoyable for parents. Overall, it was such a great experience with this tour agent, and we highly recommend Maggie for anyone visiting Beijing.
Wendy! The Queen of Beijing!
We went on this trip today. A wonderful experience. Very well organised. We didn't waste a single minute waiting in queues. Only pleasant experiences! If you can choose which guide to go with, it has to be Wendy!!! (btw, never call her Mendy ;) ;):). A wonderful girl, super friendly, organised and helpful. I recommend every trip with her wholeheartedly!!!
Lucy Made Our Beijing Day Tour Unforgettable
We had a fantastic one-day tour with Lucy in Beijing, visiting the Panda House and the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall. Lucy was incredibly knowledgeable and shared great insights into Chinese history and the significance of the Great Wall. She took us to the best spots for photos and views, and made the experience smooth and enjoyable. As vegetarians, we really appreciated how thoughtful she was in helping us find suitable food—something not easy to manage in China. Lucy was punctual, patient, and very warm throughout the day. Her guidance made our short trip memorable and stress-free. Highly recommended!
