Nice time at the Great wall with Tony

Published on Feb, 2025

We went to a tour to the Great wall with Tony, he was so kind, helpfull, he told the story of the wall, took some pictures of us and recomended good places and restaurants where we could spend the rest of our time in Beinjing. We tried the toboggan slide at the Wall, Tony offered to us, and it was a blast. Highly recommended. Thank You Tony, We had a good time.

Amazing tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Three Amazing Layover Tours

Published on Feb, 2025

I have now booked three tours during layovers in Beijing. The first I went with my daughter ons. City tour which was amazing. We repeated the tour the next time but also managed to fit in The Forbidden City. Both of these city tours were excellent and the guides were fantastic. On the way home from Sydney we only had 7 hours but we managed to fit in a tour to The Great Wall. This was a part that was not touristy and felt completely authentic. It was just as I had imagined seeing The Great Wall but with no other tourists! Definitely we will use on our next trip to Australia and can recommend to anyone. For information - if you have dual UK/Aussie passports, go in on the Aussie one as you don’t need to queue for the temporary visa. Which makes shorter trips a possibility. Thank you Tony. Look forward to the next one!

Amazing time at the Great Wall.

Published on Feb, 2025

Tony was amazing so kind so knowledgeable and accommodating. He helped us with our baby and had lunch with us! Great trip.

Wow

Published on Feb, 2025

A great experience with Tony. He texted me in advance to do another part of the great Wall, because they other one was to crowdy the day before. We we're there alone.
