One day in Beijing
![]() We spent a whole day in Beijing with Linda as a guide. It was my first Time in China, and it was so fantastic and amazing ! We saw so many things and each time she explained very well. I'm myself a big chinese history lover and, thus I asked a lot of questions. But she never got bored and answered every time with smile and passion combined ! She introduced us to Beijing way of life and suggested us local food that we shared together. Can't wait to come back again ! more

Highlights Highteam
![]() This time we went to Beijing accompanied by the guide Li/Jennifer. I think our guide places the company name very high. He knew how to solve everything and create fun and good times. He chose excellent restaurants and walks. Also, this time, we need to go to a pharmacy and she took care of everything. more
