“We had the most spectacular trip and tour for 2 days with Linda Shi. She has a great personality and definitely had the depth of knowledge to lead us all around Beijing and visit the “must sees.” She answered questions with ease, pointing out unique and memorable things to really make sure we got the most out of the tour. She also took us to great lunch places, away from the throngs of tourists. The driver we had was great, a good driver, with a luxurious, clean car. What a great way to spend 2 days learning about and seeing Beijing. I highly recommend Linda and this tour company if…”

Review of a private two-day Beijing tour covering Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, Mutianyu Great Wall, and Summer Palace.

“We had a good time at Beijing, the Lily Tour tour-guide, Linda, had been providing a good service to us. She and the driver had been very punctual, always arrived in good time on both dates. Linda scheduled the tour around us and taking into account of my wifes health when planning various visits. First day was very hot at Beijing when we visited the Tiananmen Square, the Palace Museum Forbidden City and Temple of Heaven, so we shorten the trip and Linda was able to accommodate our requirements, but worth the trip to these must-see sites. Second day, had a very good day on the Great Wall at Mutianyu,…”
