we just returned from China and we booked our forbidden city with the tour guide Will, this was a very nice tour though he was not very informative though we liked the tour alot, so we booked another tour with chinatour.net and that was to the great wall bus tour, the wall was Badaling section, we need be ready in the morning at 7:00AM were picked up and drove like 2 hours to pick up the rest of the group who were in different parts of Beijing hotels because of the bad traffic in the road, the guide Jimmy was very informative, knew a lots of stuff and was a very good guide, we had a nice time and Beijing is lovely...
We liked this tour. You can see our holiday pictures on; http://www.ismailtezcan.com/cn12b.html..
We recently did this one day tour and absolutely loved it. Our tour guide, Mai, was so lovely and helpful and really helped us enjoy the day, despite the freezing temperatures! We loved the tour and especially liked the suprise visits that were on our trip. It was excellent value for money and I would definitely recommend this tour company to anybody who was interested in doing tours. Thank you for a great day...
Hi All Very nice tour, perfect guide, well organise tour, Lunch very good. Thanks ChinaTour.Net team...
The tour in the Temples was awesome , we took lots of pictures! thanks to our tour guide Ginny, she really made the difference!..
We recently visited Beijing and used ChinaTour.net for three separate day tours. Day 1 we visited Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace . Laura (Lili?) was our personal tour guide and despite the rushed atmosphere caused to having to see so many sites in one day, she was very informative, exceptionally helpful, and a delight to be with all day. I highly recommend personal tour guides. The next day we visited the Lama Temple, the..
Few weeks ago, we booked the 1 Day tour to some famous places in Beijing such as Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace. It was very convenient and fast when booking as well as interesting experience during the trip. The tour guide is very kind and enthusiastic. I was really impressed when he tried to convince us not to buy souvenirs that are much expensive than their true values. Also, it's quite cheap when we booked the budget tour. We were completely satisfied...
The tour was very rushed and our guide spent a lot of the time on her mobile phone. We hardly saw any of the Summer Palace. Sadly emphasis again was on lunch deadline and visitng factory outlets. Could of done this tour on our own and at our own pace. As very good transport links, and the availability of audio guides at the sights would of made our visit more informative...

Once again Peter and I (Leslie Swiger) were picked up at the Beijing Crown Plaza. We again had private car, driver and tour guide, the same as for The Great Wall and the Ming Tombs. Can not tell you what great people they were.Known as the Palace Museum, this magnificent complex is a grand monument to the 24 emperors who ruled from its hall over a period of almost 500 years. A must see! The Temple of Heaven is where the emperor would make sacrifices and pray to heaven and his ancestors at the wintger solstice. As the Son of Heaven, the emperor could intercede with the gods on behalf of his people and pray for a good harvest. You can spend hours just hearing about the history of the Temple of Heaven. You may want and make it a day at the Summer Palace. A sprawling landscaped park on the edge of the city, the Summer Palace was a seasonal imperial retreat from the stifing confines of the Forbidden City. It was the favored haunt of the fiercesome Empress Cixi, who had it rebuilt twice; once following its destruction by French and English troops in 1860 and again in 1902, after it was plundered during the Boxer Rebellion. Besure and take the dragon boat across the lake. SoooooooBEAUTIFUL! We are going back and will be using ChinaTour.Net again. Thanks to all those who helped make our trip so enjoyable. Leslie Swiger..
We were a bit lucky with this trip as we booked the group tour but there was only our family and one other very pleasant guest. The Forbidden City is huge and full of tourists. It is very impressive. The Temple of Heaven is beautiful and definitely something special. The Summer Palace is again full of people, which does not take the pleasure out of the trip. The way we were brought to have lunch - in a golf cart - gave us the feeling of being somehow important and was great fun. The trip to the Chinese Medical Centre was very interesting although surprising. The Pearl Factory on the other hand did not enhance the trip at all. It is much easier to visit these main sights of Beijing with a tour like this than being on your own with limited Chinese...
We recently visited Beijing and used ChinaTour.net for three separate day tours. Day 1 we visited The Great Wall and the Ming Tombs, day 2 we visited the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace and on day 3 we went to the Lama Temple, the Panda Zoo and the Hutong. All three day tours were wonderful. Our guides were pleasant and informative with excellent English skills. The meals provided were exceptional and transportation with comfortable and prompt. We certainly got value for our money with this tour operation. I was a bit apprehensive when I finalized the booking before we left home because the price was considerably lower then the other online sites offering guided tours. ChinaTour.net was awesome we are completely satisfied customers. Dan and Michelle Balan (Ontario Canada)...
Very good. The tour was very informative and our guide Calvin Zhang was a very good guide for these guided objects. I will remeber this tour for long time. I do not think that I ever could get the same good experince with a bigger amount of a tour group, nor trying similar tour by myself. I recommend ChinaTour.net company for booking these type of events. Nice lunch as well. Best Regards Bjorn...

We enjoyed very much this tour. Our tour guide was Lili. She was very skillfull. We enjoyed having tour with her. Normally, I booked for a coach tour, finally we were only 2 people, my husband and I. It was like a private tour. We had time to see all the 3 sites. She also took us to a traditional chinese medecine institute of research. We were very surprised to have this in the tour since it was not mentioned. We experienced traditional massage. Very good. I recommend your agency. very good quality and service...
Excellent! Great sites! Wendy (our guide) was exceptionaly knowledgeable on all the sites we visited, including history and side-stories! Our family of 9, from age 12 to 61, enjoyed every moment of the tour. Thank you so much for the grand time we had in Beijing. Your company is worth reffering to friends and ralatives alike. Keep up the good work! We will surely go back to China!..
This was a very enjoyable tour, although a bit rushed in light of seeing so many attractions in a single day. One could easily spend an entire day in the Forbidden City alone. Very aggressive sales presentations marred an otherwise wonderful day with long stop at various factories taking up time. Overall, the tour was very good, comfortable bus and good lunch provided...
This tour was simply excellent. Our tour guide - Rita - spoke excellent English which ensured that we didn't miss anything. The itinery through the Forbidden city was particularly clever as we started at the back entrance so for much of the tour we were not part of a much larger crowd. The imperial palaces are simply a sight to behold!..
I cancelled the tour and did the sight seeing tours by taxi instead, I paid the taxi driver 800 Yuan for the whole day. However, the sights mentioned in the different tours on these web pages are worth visiting...
The tour was great! Kudos to our guide. I highly recommend this tour, as it saves you all sorts of time in terms of getting from place to place and figuring out what is what. The guide is very helpful and provided a great deal of detail, insight and historical background on all the locations visited. Hope you enjoy your visit...
Excellent. This tour was very informative and our guide was the best person we could of had. She almost knew too much and we enjoyed her every day. Thanks again Rita (a.k.a. tour guide) for the rememberable moments. I recommend this company everytime...
we booked private tour, which can be highly recommended. Mr. Guo was a very good driver and Mrs. Jerry an excellent tour guide...
