Night sightseeing tour with Lucy - Wonderful tour guided by Lucy who is very kind, knowledgeable and speaks perfect English. Lucy will guide you to places where the views are extraordinary and she will do her best to meet your wishes and answer all your questions. I highly recommend Lucy and this tour if you would like to see a lot of Beijing in a short time and if you enjoy taking photographs or just taking in the colourful atmosphere of the city by night. I am so glad I did this tour and experienced Beijing in a different and complimentary way to all my other tours. Thank you so much Lucy for your guiding and this great experience.

Excellent experience with Miko - My gf and I had the Beijing night walking tour with Miko as our guide. Miko is an exceptional guide, very friendly, funny and great fluency in English. He took us around the key night life areas in Beijing and shared the history of each area. He even helped us find and translate at a local pharmacy late night which was really helpful. I highly recommend Miko as a guide for any tours!!

Great evening tour in Beijing - We had an excellent evening tour with Miko. He is a great basketball fan. That's why he is called Miko. Mi means in chinese love and Ko stands for Kobe Bryant. Miko explained all very well. He took us for dinner to a local restaurant where we had traditional dumplings, which was a delicious dish. We highly recommend the tour with Miko.

A great way to start a visit to Beijing - Kevin did a great job leading us around the city at night. We started on Qianmen street, which was full of people and endless shops with food and colorful sights and sounds. The rest was a whirlwind with stops at the opera house, the great dragon at qian hai lake, the Olympic park and the largest LED screen in Asia at The Place. It was a perfect start our Beijing visit.

Great guided tour - Anson was my guide and he’s friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and articulate. He speaks perfect English and is very experienced dealing with international tourists. I was on my own so the pace was fast and I got to see a lot of landmarks in Beijing including the hutongs at night. At the beginning, Anson gave an engaging brief on the history of Beijing. It was also interesting to learn about the old and modern life styles of BJers. Highly recommend this.

Amazing Private Night Sightseeing Tour of Beijing - Our guide was called Jay, he was amazing in his experience, knowledge and expertise. His english was perfect. Such a lovely person showing us all the sites and he managed to get us in to all the busy sites with his driver too. It was during the May bank holiday so Tiananmen Square was extremely busy. He picked a great restaurant for dinner and we tried the famous perking duck - its out of this world. Fantastic tour and highly recommend Jay.

It’s was a very nice trip... - It’s was a very nice trip . We were not upto taking a long and hectic tour after right after arriving Beijing . The guide Jack was very helpful and informative about the history . We certainly would not be able to do it ourselves . Jack was very helpful and was making sure that we are safe weather getting out of the car or crossing the street .
