About China Highlights

Had an amazing experience with Jiang! He was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the tour. He took me to the Great Wall of China, Tiananmen Square, and the Forbidden City, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience. His insights into the history and culture made the trip even more special. Highly recommend!

Selinda Zhang was my guide for Beijing, however, just as important on my tour was Guo Wei who was our driver. He was a local who knew where everything was and how to get there without using directions from an app. He was able to drive to places that were so narrow that I was surprised the car was able to get through. Both worked together to make my visit different and special from previous tours. Selinda arranged the schedule so that we would best utilize the places that we needed to visit. We would try and see or do something along the way to or from an attraction including taking breaks for lunch. This saved us enough time that I was able to squeeze in another dance performance that was not scheduled. Similarly, she found out the day before that a scheduled attraction was closed and that we would need to do something else. This saved us from wasting time traveling there. Selinda was always early waiting at the hotel lobby in picking me up. She told me about the places we were visiting and took care of me when I had to go up and down stairs. She also knew where the restrooms were when I need to used them. When we had extra time she offered suggestions of places were could go visit. Almost all of the places that we visited were new to me such as Olympic Park, the Bird Nest, Old Summer Palace and Mao’s Memorial Hall. But we also were able to do drive bys and short photo stops at places we were not able to visit such as Peking University, Tsinghua University and CCTV Building. They were also able to locate a school that I was interested in seeing.

We had a great time with our guide Jiang, who accompanied us on our first day in China to visit the Great Wall. He was attentive and kind, and helped us understand the history of this extraordinary site. Recommended!
