First trip with China Highlights, would book again
My guide in Beijing was Helen, she was amazing. Helen ensured that we were able to see all the sites and minimized our wait times in the lines. Helen used strategies and cultural knowledge to enhance our experience. Helen was very professional and flexible to our needs. For example, I wanted to buy jade, so she was able to accommodate my request. Additionally, she provided information for sites that I wanted to see on my own in my free time. more
