Dear Fernanda, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! I’m delighted you enjoyed our tour. It was a pleasure showing you around. All the best to you! Clare

“Fab tour guide, great tour of Beijing must see attractions ”

We selected Clare for a private tour in Beijing following a recommendation from a friend that we would need a guide in Beijing, he was right. Clare was punctual, waiting in our Hotel lobby at 8.30 for day 1, and we were superbly looked after from that point onwards. Clare was very knowledgeable about the local attractions, and good company. We were chauffeured from site to site in a lovely private air conditioned car, which was extremely welcome! Great tour.
