This was a trip of a life-time and we wanted to make the most of it. We booked this three day tour which really showed us the major attractions in Beijing. We were picked up from our hotel every morning and our day was planned out for us. There were so many wonderful places which we saw and I highly recommend this 3 day tour if you are visiting Beijing.

Totally worth booking a 3 day tour - I got to see all the major landmarks. Some of them I hadn't heard of before I came and I wouldn't have known there was so much to see in Beijing. If you want to fit a lot in then this is the right tour for you.

I do not know how to describe this amazing 3 day tour. We saw so many places including Tienanmen Square, The “Forbidden City,” Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, Lama Temple and had a rickshaw ride. Having travelled so far we wanted our holiday in China to be perfect, and these 3 days were really perfect. Liam and I cannot thank you enough.

We thought out our vacation to China very carefully and booked this tour online before we left Toronto. It was easy to book and we kept in contact with the tour company. I personally am still overawed after our vacation. Everything was awesome and I want to come back ASAP.

We had the most amazing guide on these tours (I never got his name right) and everything we saw was amazing. The Great Wall lived up to our anticipation and it really is wonderful to walk on it and see the sights. There were so many places that we visited, however, the Summer Palace and the rickshaw ride will always stand out for me. We tried traditional food and cannot say anything negative about this tour.
