Jianxiong L.

I am a licensed English‑speaking tour guide with over 6 years of practical experience in Guilin, Yangshuo and the Longji Rice Terraces. I offer private custom‑tailored tours and work as both driver and guide with a 5‑seat vehicle. Travel plans can be fully adjusted according to each visitor’s interests and travel pace. Larger‑size transport with separate driver and guide is also available upon request. I enjoy showing guests the stunning karst scenery, local villages and authentic culture of this region, creating relaxed and memorable travel experiences for international visitors.

Joanne T.

Hello! I’m your bilingual local guide for Beijing cultural & heritage tours. I spent more than 10 years living and working in Europe, so I fully understand overseas travelers' travel habits, cultural needs and the little details that make your trip smooth and enjoyable. I hold a professional English tour guide qualification, and I focus on deep-dive tours covering Beijing’s museums, ancient temples, historic relics, grotto art and classic traditional architecture. I love telling history with lively, insightful stories rather than rigid textbook explanations. I’m happy to draw interesting comparisons between Eastern and Western culture during our visits, to help you truly get behind the stories of every relic and landmark. I’m an experienced global traveler myself, having hiked iconic long-distance trails and explored over 20 nations by self-drive and backpacking, so I can offer great off-the-beaten-path travel tips as well. Patient, detail-oriented and easy-going, I aim to make your Beijing journey both educational and relaxing, and help you experience the most authentic side of this ancient capital.

Jacky G.

Hello! I'm Jacky GONG (贡文), a licensed bilingual (English/Chinese) private guide in Hangzhou and an Official Docent at the Zhejiang Provincial Museum — a credential held by very few guides in the city. After 15 years as an IT engineer, I became a full-time guide, and I've now hosted 500+ travelers from more than 13 countries. I specialize in deeply customized cultural experiences: decoding the hidden stories of the Southern Song Dynasty, exploring ancient temples like Lingyin, and weaving classical Chinese poetry into the landscape of West Lake. I'm also a passionate hiker with 15 years on Hangzhou's mountain trails. I guide guests away from the crowds to hidden gems — from pristine tea plantations in Longjing to off-the-beaten-path routes in the Western Hills. As a 240-hour visa-free transit specialist, I handle airport pickup and the logistics, so your day runs seamlessly. Every tour includes private transportation in a spacious, premium SUV, tailored 100% to your pace and interests. Let's skip the tourist traps and create an unforgettable, authentic Hangzhou journey together. Welcome to my hometown!

What makes a great guide? Is it being familiar with tourist attractions? Yes, of course. You need to know the best time and route to visit popular sites. For instance, Monday mornings at Mutianyu Great Wall can be a nightmare. Even at the Forbidden City and Summer Palace, there are quieter routes where you can truly immerse yourself in history. Is it being knowledgeable about history and culture? Yes, of course. China has 5,000 years of civilization and Beijing has served as China’s capital for over 900 years. I use visual aids, such as a relief map of China and a 5,000-year civilization timeline comparison, to help you grasp Beijing and China's splendid past. But most importantly, a good guide should understand clients’ needs. Travellers have different interests. Some love to experience locals’ quiet daily life — a wet market visit would be perfect. Some seek excitement, and an acrobatic show can become the most unforgettable part of your trip. Some admire traditional Chinese paintings, and Liulichang, where people have bought artworks for centuries, will satisfy your artistic taste. Others enjoy riding shared bikes and wandering through old hutongs, then, let’s bike together and discover hidden gems even locals overlook. Talk to me, and I will find the side of Beijing that suits you best. Book my service, and I will show you authentic Beijing!

Hangzhou’s Wizard of Oz: Secret Mountain Hike

Forget the crowded West Lake promenades, this is the Hangzhou that locals keep for themselves. This trail is a magical half-day hike that leads you through three breathtakingly beautiful green spaces, each with its own unique personality.

Hangzhou’s Wizard of Oz: Secret Mountain Hike

Sidetrack off beaten path of Chongqing local life and vibe with a local friend in public transport

Beside from being known for monorail and lighted up village that are full of tourists, Chongqing is a city for city explorers and foodies. As an inland third-tier city, it preserves the contrast between 1980s slums and futuristic high-rises which is of interests to westerners; it also preserves more dramatic city topography where locals call home. This tour will lead you away from touristy spots, and through the local and mind-blowing contrast that you can use as food for thought.

“History and architecture”

Our tour with Xavier was exceptional. Xavier's background is in urban planning and his passion is history of Chinese culture, architecture and engineering. This has led him to work on Chinese Ministry of Culture directed projects of historical significance, which in itself is fascinating. Xavier's command of English is accomplished, he is patient, empathetic and above all, guest focussed as he constantly seeks to identify your subjects of interest. I chose Xavier for this tour because of his self assessed passion for Chinese history and architecture and it is certainly true. I recommend Xavier highly and in particular, suggest you book him at the beginning of your trip to Beijing as his insights provide an important foundation for the rest of your time in this amazing city.

Xavier Z.

Dear Heather, Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and detailed review. I truly appreciate your kind words and your support. I also really enjoyed the time we spent exploring Beijing and our conversations along the way. It was a pleasure to share some of the city’s history, architecture and cultural heritage with someone who was so curious and engaged. I’m especially glad to know that the tour gave you useful context about the city. That is exactly what I hope to offer through my tours — not simply visiting individual sights, but helping guests understand how they connect to the wider history, architecture and culture of the city. Thank you again for your generous review. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I hope you left Beijing with many wonderful memories. Warmest wishes, Xavier

“Full Day Forbidden City”

I had a wonderful time spending the day with Xuan at the Forbidden City. She is very knowledgeable and has many visual aids to help explain what I was seeing. Xuan was engaging and interesting. She strived to ensure that the tour was tailored to my interests. We were able to explore some areas with lesser crowds to appreciate the site and gain appreciation in a quieter atmosphere. I would highly recommend choosing Xuan if you are planning a trip to Beijing and want to get immersed in the culture. Thank you for a great day!

Xuan X.

Thank you Michael for your kind review! It was such a pleasure to spend the day with a curious guest like you, who is truly fascinated by Chinese history and culture. The Forbidden City is just the start! Beijing has other UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites, for example, the Summer Palace. Its landscape of hills and lakes was carefully crafted during the Qing Dynasty for royal retreats. If you ever come back, we can also try more hands-on experiences, like a cooking tour or a traditional painting class. Beyond Beijing, China boasts incredibly diverse destinations, and travel here is affordable. You could easily spend two weeks exploring varied landforms and the rich cultures of different ethnic groups. Please do share your experience in China with your friends. I hope you and your loved ones can come back to China soon for another wonderful trip. Have a lovely day!
