“Beijing Tour in August”
We (family of 3) visited Beijing in August 26 and because it is our first time and we don’t speak chinese, we decided to go with a tourguide. Trough searching on the internet we found this website and after reading the reviews we contacted Clare. From the very first message we received her demeanor was so professional and inviting. In short: she planned a five days perfectly scheduled and balanced trip , catering to our interests. Clare is the whole package of what you are searching for in a tourguide: on time, calm, very well spoken, very knowledgeable, flexible, not rushing through tim and, knows the good restaurants and shops. She knows all the tricks to deal with the logistics of traveling in Beijing as a newbie, so you don’t waste time thinking about this and instead can fully enjoy your vacation. Needless to say that we had a GREAT TIME and we absolutely recommend Clare as your tourguide if visiting Beijing.
