There are 8 of us from the Philippines and we got China Discovery to create for us a personalized package for Beijing because we have 2 seniors with us and we need to consider their pace and needs.

Mr. Wonder (yes, that's his name) who helped me curate the tour has been more than helpful. He fixed our itinerary, answered my many questions, was patient with various changes, always replied promptly even when he was on a holiday. His English is very good so we didn't have any problem with communication. The hotel he booked us in was very central. Restaurants and shops everywhere. Subway and bus stations just outside hotel door. Very professional and excellent with his job.

The tour turned out to be as accurate as the itinerary Mr. Wonder made for us. Our tour guide 刘开庆先生 Mr. Jackson Liu is a very good guide, he's always on time, kind, patient, and helps our older family members. He knows the history and a lot of interesting anecdotes about all the places we visited. Even my 10 year old child was amused with the stories he told. He translates twice, English for the younger people, and Mandarin for our senior parents. He takes good pictures of us! He suggests good restaurants that locals go to and our tummies are more than satisfied. He even answers my calls during his off hours when I would need help finding which subway to take or when I was having a hard time finding a certain place.

Price-wise, they're very economical. I was able to compare this to another relative who contracted with another company who will also do a similar Beijing tour just 3 weeks after ours. Our trip definitely was value for money.

We had a wonderful time in Beijing and will be sure to contact China Discovery again for our next China trip.
