We engaged Nancy for a private tour prior to travelling to China. Nancy was fantastic to deal with, she went above and beyond what we initially engaged her for. For example she assisted us with our travelling plans when we had issues with our train.She organised and paid (in the interim) for ticket changes and helped us with language translations. Nancy was a fantastic tour guide, professional, incredibly helpful, sincere and honest. We do not hesitate to recommend her,

We visited here in August 2019. It was a dumpling dinner and a Tang Dynasty dance show. The food was fairly bland, and there were people selling random souvenirs at the table throughout the dinner. The show was mostly dancing with historical details projected on the wall beside the dancers. A very cultural show and good basic insight into some of China's history.

My daughter and I had the pleasure of having Qing as our tour guide. We had a great experience. Qing was very knowledgeable and added funny commentary to engage my 9 year old daughter, whom is not interested in History (yet)! We learned a lot about Chinese history and culture, with the added benefit of being allowed to take ample time to take a multitude of pictures. Qing has hosted this tour for many years, so she provided us with tips to take the most flattering shots in this historical venue. I would definitely recommend Qing when taking this tour. We will remember this experience forever.
