Nuestra guía Amy fue majísima y muy paciente. Fuimos un grupo bastante grande y nos ayudó con todo, desde encontrar un sitio para comer, con entradas, recorridos y tiempos en la muralla y excelente guía en La Ciudad prohibida. Excelente experiencia. Muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide, Amy, was incredibly kind and very patient. We were a fairly large group, and she helped us with everything from finding a place to eat, tickets, routes, and times at the wall, and she was an excellent guide in the Forbidden City. Excellent experience. Highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

Mike nos estaba esperando puntualmente en la ubicación indicada. Una vez reunidos todos nos dirigimos a la Ciudad Prohibida. Durante 3h nos guío y explicó todo, en un perfecto inglés. Posteriormente, nos acompañó hasta el punto de encuentro con Yoyo. Yoyo nos acompañó en bus hasta Mutianyu, nos explicó lo que íbamos a ver y nos ayudó a comprar los tickets del teleférico. Yoyo habla un perfecto inglés y fue muy amable, nos resolvió todas nuestras dudas. Al final, el autobús nos dejó en el centro. Translate this opinion into English.

Mike was waiting for us punctually at the designated location. Once we were all gathered, we headed to the Forbidden City. He guided us around for three hours, explaining everything in perfect English. Afterward, he accompanied us to the meeting point with Yoyo. Yoyo accompanied us on the bus to Mutianyu, explained what we were going to see, and helped us purchase the cable car tickets. Yoyo speaks perfect English and was very friendly, answering all our questions. Finally, the bus dropped us off downtown. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy mal organizada, impuntuales en la salida, no tenía preparada la visita ni marcaba los tiempos. Tampoco teníamos las entradas por adelantado pese a haber dado los pasaportes. Unas veces corríamos para llegar a los sitios y otras estábamos sentados media hora esperando a la nada. Las explicaciones muy breves y de inglés muy limitado. Terrible, con decir que la parada fue en medio de una mediana...

Very poorly organized, late departures, no tour planned, no timetables. We also didn't have advance tickets despite having handed in our passports. Sometimes we were rushing to get to the sites, and other times we were sitting for half an hour waiting for nothing. The explanations were very brief, and English was very limited. Terrible, to say the stop was in the middle of a median strip...

Decent guide. Time management could be improved (a 10h trip turned into a 14h trip).

The specified total duration is approximate, as is that of all the visits planned in the itinerary. However, it may be extended or shortened depending on external factors. We apologize if this affected your experience.

El guía fue súper irresponsable, solo le importaba ir rápido y avanzar con el itinerario. En la Ciudad Prohibida perdió al grupo varias veces, ¡ni siquiera se aseguraba de que todos estuvieran! Y la explicación… un desastre total, no dijo nada interesante, parecía que ni sabía de lo que hablaba. La verdad, hubiera sido mejor buscar la info yo mismo con GPT. En general, fue una experiencia pésima

The guide was incredibly irresponsible; he only cared about going fast and moving forward with the itinerary. In the Forbidden City, he lost the group several times; he didn't even check that everyone was there! And the explanation... a total disaster. He didn't say anything interesting; it seemed like he didn't even know what he was talking about. Honestly, it would have been better to look up the information myself with GPT. Overall, it was a terrible experience.

Imprescindible tour en Pekìn. La visita a la ciudad prohìbida y la visita a la Gran Muralla en la zona de Mutianyu fue perfecta. No se si sintiò "atropellado" todo super bien organizado. ¡Super recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

A must-do tour in Beijing. The visit to the Forbidden City and the Great Wall in the Mutianyu area were perfect. I don't know if it felt rushed; everything was super well organized. Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

Gran trabajo del guía, Jackie Chan, quien se mostró atento y predispuesto para resolver todas las necesidades e inconvenientes. Los destinos del tour son dos imperdibles en Beijing, pero además se agregan un par de programas que bien lo valen. Translate this opinion into English.

Great work by the guide, Jackie Chan, who was attentive and willing to address all needs and issues. The tour destinations are two must-sees in Beijing, but there are also a couple of programs that are well worth the visit. Opinion translated. Show original.
