Review of 1 Day Tour : Great Wall and Ming Tombs by John

1 Day Tour : Great Wall and Ming Tombs

Our first time to Beijing - my wife and I thought it advisable to book a day tour before we arrived and after browsing other services and websites your offer seemed as good as others - especially with your "pay the driver on the day of your tour" policy. Clicked OK and in hours we received a confirmation for the date we requested. Upon our arrival to our hotel, we phoned again to reconfirm and next morning the tour guide was in our lobby as promised and appologizing for only having a private car and driver for us as the group tour was cancelled. To our astonishment we were offered a discount since we would have no one else to chat with other than our tour guide. We gladly accepted the apologies without the discount. The tour was more than we bargained for in every sense. We were enchanted with our tour guide Sofia, and her kindness and her caring and mostly her professionalism and knowledge and great efforts to answer all our questions slowly and carefully. The tour of the Great Wall and Ming Tombs was very well organized and again no additional costs to us. The lunch was included and better than expected. We had no particular interest in shopping for jade or buying Chinese trinkets at the government store but we were left undisturbed to browse on our own and we ended up buying a few items we would not have otherwise. All in all the tour greatly enhanced our experience in Beijing. We took many pictures including our tour guide. We would not hesistate to recommend you to our friends and just as we read the positive reviews on your website, we hope this review will help others as well. Jack & Ruth Clarke.
