I think her passion for her hometown of Beijing and her careful attention to the needs of her tour guests adds an extra dimension that is hard to find in other tour groups.

I can also enthusiastically recommend the carefully chosen sights she took us to see. The Forbidden City is an amazing place that will transport you back to the bygone days of China\'s Emperors and Empresses. And the Temple of Heaven was such a beautiful and mysterious place. I learned a lot about the ancient traditions and cultures from my visit there and it was like being transported back in time. Finally, we have the Summer Palace which is a stunningly glorious open air garden full of lakes, lotus flowers, gardens and beautiful pavilions. It was a very important place for the Chinese imperial family and a real treat to explore.

These have been some of my life\'s most carefree vacations in a foreign country; she took care of every detail. Do yourself a favor and book the All Inclusive Tour to really get a glimpse of genuine local delicious restaurants picked by her, as well as easing transportation.

If you\'re up for a more detail:
She speaks excellent English, and she\'s always on time. Sunflower is fun, charismatic, open-minded, very cultured, patient, honest, and extremely caring. She has set what will now be the highest standard, in my personal experience, for a guide. She takes great pics, too!

We booked almost two months in advance, and she contacted me almost immediately (less than 24 hours) to start managing all bookings and visits. Despite the little contact, she was ready to meet at the agreed place and time of the booking.

We moved around in Didi. We were allowed to set the pace, listen, explore, and enjoy coffee/tea or snacks as desired. She\'s extremely knowledgeable about China, explaining as much as we desired and always giving a prompt answer to inquiries; on the 3 rare occasions that she didn\'t have an answer, she got back to us the next day with the information.

She was never in a hurry to wrap up, move to the next place, or end the day. When mentioning a couple of spots we desired to visit at specific times or later in the evening, she didn\'t hesitate to take us there herself. 

She\'s extremely caring. On one occasion, intending to visit a mall for dinner, not only did she give us all indications and maps to get there, but she took us right to the mall door and then went home. She also cooked some delicious hard-boiled eggs for us to try! 
She always provided several suggestions for food, leisure, and exploring the city when requested. She never pushed us to try or visit anything we were not open to or interested in.

She completely changed my misconceptions about China, showing us a more relaxed lifestyle and attitude than I expected. She likes to help people, share her culture, learn about others, and give cooking lessons online! She\'s very high-spirited :)

Finally, we didn\'t have a single additional expense while being with her other than the gratuity for our assigned driver on the Great Wall visit (he drove us around for 4 hours, and this was optional) and her own gratuity, which was totally deserved. She even helped us set up a driver to the airport on our last day in Beijing.

I\'m probably forgetting more things. I can say, however, that there was nothing to improve that I can recall and that I can\'t wait to visit some other parts of China with her!',5.0,'2023-12-02T20:59:55Z','REV-KIFMJ8GpNAWbJyLRU0IJh9NUgb2jiPMCd5IPmhA75hI=','en','AOliverM','TRIPADVISOR'),('67316P8','3-Day Private Tour of Incredible Beijing Highlights','Best Decision Ever','When we were evaluating whether we should get a tour guide for a trip to China, we came across this tour.

Let me start with saying that Sunflower is the guide you want. My family and I were in Beijing for two weeks. During this time, we did many things but my most memorable moments (two years later) is touring Beijing with sunflower. She is a very lively, fun and hilarious to be around. Don\'t let her fool you, she is a character and will keep you well entertained! She will always keep your best interest in mind and tend to any of your needs. If you are interested in doing anything in Beijing and are unsure, Just have sunflower take you there and it will be an experience you will never forget. She really comes in handy when looking for any thing local such as food, entertainment, transportation and shopping. One worry you might have while looking for a guide is being able to understand their accents. Sunflower is easy to understand, is very quick to respond and will understand whatever you are saying. Lets get to the main reason why many people visit Beijing, the Great Wall of China. This was easily my favorite memory here and having sunflower made this experience so much better! I am a twin and both of us do P90X, we are easily in shape and was ready to hike the Great Wall. Let me tell you, sunflower stayed with both of us the whole hike. Half the family decided to take a breather and rest while my My Twin I and Sunflower hiked for hours. Let me tell you, we all slept well that night.

Can\'t wait to go back!

Let me start with saying that Sunflower is the guide you want. My family and I were in Beijing for two weeks. During this time, we did many things but my most memorable moments (two years later) is touring Beijing with sunflower. She is a very lively, fun and hilarious to be around. Don\'t let her fool you, she is a character and will keep you well entertained! She will always keep your best interest in mind and tend to any of your needs. If you are interested in doing anything in Beijing and are unsure, Just have sunflower take you there and it will be an experience you will never forget. She really comes in handy when looking for any thing local such as food, entertainment, transportation and shopping. One worry you might have while looking for a guide is being able to understand their accents. Sunflower is easy to understand, is very quick to respond and will understand whatever you are saying. Lets get to the main reason why many people visit Beijing, the Great Wall of China. This was easily my favorite memory here and having sunflower made this experience so much better! I am a twin and both of us do P90X, we are easily in shape and was ready to hike the Great Wall. Let me tell you, sunflower stayed with both of us the whole hike. Half the family decided to take a breather and rest while my My Twin I and Sunflower hiked for hours. Let me tell you, we all slept well that night.

Entrance fees to the sights and lunch were also included, and the restaurants were really nice (we had asked for local cuisine, and were taken to a noodles restaurant and a dumpling restaurant).

Miss Lina, our tour guide, was very nice and did a really good job. She steered us toward the interesting places at every site, offered explanations and additional information and also answered all our questions on Beijing and China. Plus, she is just a great person to be around!

Sunflower met us in the evening after the first day of our tour at the hotel lobby, and made it clear that we could also ask her for any advice  via WeChat or email.

I contacted Sunflower about spending two days showing us around Beijing and the great wall. 

Sunflower patiently answered my many queries before hand. We agreed an itinerary and I then paid her using paypal. Sunflower reconfirmed approximately a week before. The price was very reasonable. The entrance to the sights, lunch (you also pay for Sunflower) and transport other than where you have a car for the day is not included in the price but Sunflower gave me a guide as to how much this would cost so I could budget/bring appropriate cash. 

Day 1: Sunflower met us at the airport at 7:30am with a private driver. We then visited the Great Wall of China which was amazing. We caught the cable car up, walked along and took the slide down which was fun. 

We had a Subway in the car for lunch on the way to the Forbidden palace. We then went to see Tiananmen square before Sunflower dropped us back at our hotel. 

Day 2: Sunflower met us in the Lobby of our hotel at 9:00. We went to the Temple of Heaven in the morning to see the park and the temple. We then had a Chinese lunch before going to the Summer Palace which was beautiful. After this we headed back to the Hutongs to wander around both old and new sections. By the end of the two days Sunflower felt like an old friend. 

Overall Sunflower is very knowledgeable and friendly. She tries to make the trip as perfect as possible. She took tons of photo\'s of us, listened to our preferences and tailored the tour to suit us.

I had a great time in Beijing! It was really all due to the great guidance of Sunflower Tours. Not counting their airport pick up and drop off, I was planning on spending 2 full days on the ground in Beijing and wanted to see specific landmarks. As a solo female traveler, I took a hard look at the top rated tours on Trip advisor, reading them carefully to make sure I was going to feel safe, taken care and see the places I was really interested in seeing. Sunflower took in all my requirements and within 12 hours (remember the time difference), had a very competitive quote with location information for pick up. From the beginning email contact to the “above and beyond” last minute customer service due to a missed return flight (no fault of the driver’s), I am so thrilled to have chosen Sunflower Tours. 

The scheduled airport pick-up went smoothly and I was greeted at the airport as promised and dropped to my hotel. The following day I had an amazing full day tour with Sunflower herself. We went to the Temple of Heaven and viewed the morning exercisers, Tiananmen Square and walked through to the Forbidden City. We had a late lunch and then finished with a walk through the traditional hutong neighborhoods. It was a great mix of walking, subway and driving to look at some of the most amazing sights Beijing had to offer. On top of this, we enjoyed two wonderful meals, one of which gave me my later taste for dumplings and the dinner was the best hotpot I ever had! Better than that I made a new friend in Beijing!

The second day, I toured the Great Wall (Mutianyu) and the Summer Palace. The drive was about an hour and half out of Beijing to the Great Wall and we were driven by a professional driver who waited for us at each stop during the entire day. During the drive, David (my fabulous guide day 2) gave me a lot of background on China which taught me a lot about Chinese history, customs and the various regions of the country. We discussed everything from the various empires and rulers of China to the great growth over the last 20 years that Beijing has experienced and how the city has expanded exponentially. Arriving at the Great Wall, we didn’t have to take the shuttle bus with David’s VIP pass and instead walked up the hill directly accessing the gondola to be able to summit to the first watch tower. I was able to enjoy as much time as I wanted at the Great Wall and walked from Tower 14 to Tower 21. I think I spent about 2 ½ hours or so on the Wall. Except for the last steep summit, David escorted me the entire way discussing various subjects about our respective countries. As always he was happy to take any and all pictures. After the Great Wall, with my newfound love for dumplings (the ones Sunflower introduced me to the day before), David was in contact with Sunflower to adjust the lunch meal to suit my request for a dumpling spot on the way to the Summer Palace. I might add, all the dumplings I’ve had, far surpass most Chinese-Americanized restaurants in the United States. Our last stop was to the Summer Palace. As always, being with David who is a friendly and experienced guide, he could give me all the history of the Palace which was so much better than being in a large group listening to someone shout things out or not having someone like him who was always happy to answer all my questions.

We didn\'t have much time in Beijing and wanted to pack in all the sites we could.  We only had two full days in Beijing and I am SO happy to say that Sunflower Tours was a great choice.  We were met at the airport at about 8 pm local time with a sign highlighting our names by Zheng who transported us directly to our hotel.  The next morning we met with Lei Li aka Sunflower who was to be our guide for the next two days.  

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.  We stopped for lunch at a local place and got to walk in a local neighborhood as well which was a nice departure from all the many monumental sites. It was a jam-packed day and know that there is a lot of walking.  So be prepared.  Also, there is a section outside the Forbidden City that is the Imperial Gardens (I think) that has a great hill with many steps.  If you have walking or stair climbing challenges, you may have to wait at the bottom.  But once at the top you can see all over the city and over the Forbidden City nicely.  At the end of the day we chose to see the Chinese Acrobatic Show.  With no disrespect to these artists, I would skip that show.  While only one hour in length, it wasn\'t anything I hadn\'t ever seen before out in the world.  If you have seen any Cirque du Soleil, then this might be a let down to you as it was to me. Plus, oddly enough, it was the most expensive thing we did all weekend.  It was about 220 RMB per person or about $33-$35 US.  On a side note, traffic in that city is ridiculously congested.  So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.

Day 1: Sunflower met us at the airport at 7:30am with a private driver. We then visited the Great Wall of China which was amazing. We caught the cable car up, walked along and took the slide down which was fun. 

We had a Subway in the car for lunch on the way to the Forbidden palace. We then went to see Tiananmen square before Sunflower dropped us back at our hotel.

I had a great time in Beijing! It was really all due to the great guidance of Sunflower Tours. Not counting their airport pick up and drop off, I was planning on spending 2 full days on the ground in Beijing and wanted to see specific landmarks. As a solo female traveler, I took a hard look at the top rated tours on Trip advisor, reading them carefully to make sure I was going to feel safe, taken care and see the places I was really interested in seeing. Sunflower took in all my requirements and within 12 hours (remember the time difference), had a very competitive quote with location information for pick up. From the beginning email contact to the “above and beyond” last minute customer service due to a missed return flight (no fault of the driver’s), I am so thrilled to have chosen Sunflower Tours. 

The scheduled airport pick-up went smoothly and I was greeted at the airport as promised and dropped to my hotel. The following day I had an amazing full day tour with Sunflower herself. We went to the Temple of Heaven and viewed the morning exercisers, Tiananmen Square and walked through to the Forbidden City. We had a late lunch and then finished with a walk through the traditional hutong neighborhoods. It was a great mix of walking, subway and driving to look at some of the most amazing sights Beijing had to offer. On top of this, we enjoyed two wonderful meals, one of which gave me my later taste for dumplings and the dinner was the best hotpot I ever had! Better than that I made a new friend in Beijing!

I had a great time in Beijing! It was really all due to the great guidance of Sunflower Tours. Not counting their airport pick up and drop off, I was planning on spending 2 full days on the ground in Beijing and wanted to see specific landmarks. As a solo female traveler, I took a hard look at the top rated tours on Trip advisor, reading them carefully to make sure I was going to feel safe, taken care and see the places I was really interested in seeing. Sunflower took in all my requirements and within 12 hours (remember the time difference), had a very competitive quote with location information for pick up. From the beginning email contact to the “above and beyond” last minute customer service due to a missed return flight (no fault of the driver’s), I am so thrilled to have chosen Sunflower Tours. 

The scheduled airport pick-up went smoothly and I was greeted at the airport as promised and dropped to my hotel. The following day I had an amazing full day tour with Sunflower herself. We went to the Temple of Heaven and viewed the morning exercisers, Tiananmen Square and walked through to the Forbidden City. We had a late lunch and then finished with a walk through the traditional hutong neighborhoods. It was a great mix of walking, subway and driving to look at some of the most amazing sights Beijing had to offer. On top of this, we enjoyed two wonderful meals, one of which gave me my later taste for dumplings and the dinner was the best hotpot I ever had! Better than that I made a new friend in Beijing!

The second day, I toured the Great Wall (Mutianyu) and the Summer Palace. The drive was about an hour and half out of Beijing to the Great Wall and we were driven by a professional driver who waited for us at each stop during the entire day. During the drive, David (my fabulous guide day 2) gave me a lot of background on China which taught me a lot about Chinese history, customs and the various regions of the country. We discussed everything from the various empires and rulers of China to the great growth over the last 20 years that Beijing has experienced and how the city has expanded exponentially. Arriving at the Great Wall, we didn’t have to take the shuttle bus with David’s VIP pass and instead walked up the hill directly accessing the gondola to be able to summit to the first watch tower. I was able to enjoy as much time as I wanted at the Great Wall and walked from Tower 14 to Tower 21. I think I spent about 2 ½ hours or so on the Wall. Except for the last steep summit, David escorted me the entire way discussing various subjects about our respective countries. As always he was happy to take any and all pictures. After the Great Wall, with my newfound love for dumplings (the ones Sunflower introduced me to the day before), David was in contact with Sunflower to adjust the lunch meal to suit my request for a dumpling spot on the way to the Summer Palace. I might add, all the dumplings I’ve had, far surpass most Chinese-Americanized restaurants in the United States. Our last stop was to the Summer Palace. As always, being with David who is a friendly and experienced guide, he could give me all the history of the Palace which was so much better than being in a large group listening to someone shout things out or not having someone like him who was always happy to answer all my questions. 
I would highly and without question recommend Sunflower Tours to anyone coming to Beijing or of any of the other cities they service.

We didn\'t have much time in Beijing and wanted to pack in all the sites we could.  We only had two full days in Beijing and I am SO happy to say that Sunflower Tours was a great choice.  We were met at the airport at about 8 pm local time with a sign highlighting our names by Zheng who transported us directly to our hotel.  The next morning we met with Lei Li aka Sunflower who was to be our guide for the next two days.  

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.  We stopped for lunch at a local place and got to walk in a local neighborhood as well which was a nice departure from all the many monumental sites. It was a jam-packed day and know that there is a lot of walking.  So be prepared.  Also, there is a section outside the Forbidden City that is the Imperial Gardens (I think) that has a great hill with many steps.  If you have walking or stair climbing challenges, you may have to wait at the bottom.  But once at the top you can see all over the city and over the Forbidden City nicely.  At the end of the day we chose to see the Chinese Acrobatic Show.  With no disrespect to these artists, I would skip that show.  While only one hour in length, it wasn\'t anything I hadn\'t ever seen before out in the world.  If you have seen any Cirque du Soleil, then this might be a let down to you as it was to me. Plus, oddly enough, it was the most expensive thing we did all weekend.  It was about 220 RMB per person or about $33-$35 US.  On a side note, traffic in that city is ridiculously congested.  So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.  The driving alone with pickup to and from airport was a blessing from Sunflower Tours.  I HIGHLY recommend Sunflower Tours.

Sunflower patiently answered my many queries before hand. We agreed an itinerary and I then paid her using paypal. Sunflower reconfirmed approximately a week before. The price was very reasonable. The entrance to the sights, lunch (you also pay for Sunflower) and transport other than where you have a car for the day is not included in the price but Sunflower gave me a guide as to how much this would cost so I could budget/bring appropriate cash. 

Day 1: Sunflower met us at the airport at 7:30am with a private driver. We then visited the Great Wall of China which was amazing. We caught the cable car up, walked along and took the slide down which was fun. 

We had a Subway in the car for lunch on the way to the Forbidden palace. We then went to see Tiananmen square before Sunflower dropped us back at our hotel. 

Day 2: Sunflower met us in the Lobby of our hotel at 9:00. We went to the Temple of Heaven in the morning to see the park and the temple. We then had a Chinese lunch before going to the Summer Palace which was beautiful. After this we headed back to the Hutongs to wander around both old and new sections.

Overall Sunflower is very knowledgeable and friendly. She tries to make the trip as perfect as possible. She took tons of photo\'s of us, listened to our preferences and tailored the tour to suit us. She pointed our the best clean and western bathrooms (very valuable!). She also gave us recommendations of places to visit/restaurants to go to on our own once our tour ended.

I had a great time in Beijing! It was really all due to the great guidance of Sunflower Tours. Not counting their airport pick up and drop off, I was planning on spending 2 full days on the ground in Beijing and wanted to see specific landmarks. As a solo female traveler, I took a hard look at the top rated tours on Trip advisor, reading them carefully to make sure I was going to feel safe, taken care and see the places I was really interested in seeing. Sunflower took in all my requirements and within 12 hours (remember the time difference), had a very competitive quote with location information for pick up. From the beginning email contact to the “above and beyond” last minute customer service due to a missed return flight (no fault of the driver’s), I am so thrilled to have chosen Sunflower Tours. 

The scheduled airport pick-up went smoothly and I was greeted at the airport as promised and dropped to my hotel. The following day I had an amazing full day tour with Sunflower herself. We went to the Temple of Heaven and viewed the morning exercisers, Tiananmen Square and walked through to the Forbidden City. We had a late lunch and then finished with a walk through the traditional hutong neighborhoods. It was a great mix of walking, subway and driving to look at some of the most amazing sights Beijing had to offer. On top of this, we enjoyed two wonderful meals, one of which gave me my later taste for dumplings and the dinner was the best hotpot I ever had! Better than that I made a new friend in Beijing!

The second day, I toured the Great Wall (Mutianyu) and the Summer Palace. The drive was about an hour and half out of Beijing to the Great Wall and we were driven by a professional driver who waited for us at each stop during the entire day. During the drive, David (my fabulous guide day 2) gave me a lot of background on China which taught me a lot about Chinese history, customs and the various regions of the country. We discussed everything from the various empires and rulers of China to the great growth over the last 20 years that Beijing has experienced and how the city has expanded exponentially. Arriving at the Great Wall, we didn’t have to take the shuttle bus with David’s VIP pass and instead walked up the hill directly accessing the gondola to be able to summit to the first watch tower. I was able to enjoy as much time as I wanted at the Great Wall and walked from Tower 14 to Tower 21. I think I spent about 2 ½ hours or so on the Wall. Except for the last steep summit, David escorted me the entire way discussing various subjects about our respective countries. As always he was happy to take any and all pictures. After the Great Wall, with my newfound love for dumplings (the ones Sunflower introduced me to the day before), David was in contact with Sunflower to adjust the lunch meal to suit my request for a dumpling spot on the way to the Summer Palace. I might add, all the dumplings I’ve had, far surpass most Chinese-Americanized restaurants in the United States. Our last stop was to the Summer Palace. As always, being with David who is a friendly and experienced guide, he could give me all the history of the Palace which was so much better than being in a large group listening to someone shout things out or not having someone like him who was always happy to answer all my questions. 
I would highly and without question recommend Sunflower Tours to anyone coming to Beijing or of any of the other cities they service.

We didn\'t have much time in Beijing and wanted to pack in all the sites we could.  We only had two full days in Beijing and I am SO happy to say that Sunflower Tours was a great choice.  We were met at the airport at about 8 pm local time with a sign highlighting our names by Zheng who transported us directly to our hotel.  The next morning we met with Lei Li aka Sunflower who was to be our guide for the next two days.  

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.  We stopped for lunch at a local place and got to walk in a local neighborhood as well which was a nice departure from all the many monumental sites. It was a jam-packed day and know that there is a lot of walking.  So be prepared.  Also, there is a section outside the Forbidden City that is the Imperial Gardens (I think) that has a great hill with many steps.  If you have walking or stair climbing challenges, you may have to wait at the bottom.  But once at the top you can see all over the city and over the Forbidden City nicely.  At the end of the day we chose to see the Chinese Acrobatic Show.  With no disrespect to these artists, I would skip that show.  While only one hour in length, it wasn\'t anything I hadn\'t ever seen before out in the world.  If you have seen any Cirque du Soleil, then this might be a let down to you as it was to me. Plus, oddly enough, it was the most expensive thing we did all weekend.  It was about 220 RMB per person or about $33-$35 US.  On a side note, traffic in that city is ridiculously congested.  So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.

Sunflower patiently answered my many queries before hand. We agreed an itinerary and I then paid her using paypal. Sunflower reconfirmed approximately a week before. The price was very reasonable. The entrance to the sights, lunch (you also pay for Sunflower) and transport other than where you have a car for the day is not included in the price but Sunflower gave me a guide as to how much this would cost so I could budget/bring appropriate cash. 

Day 1: Sunflower met us at the airport at 7:30am with a private driver. We then visited the Great Wall of China which was amazing. We caught the cable car up, walked along and took the slide down which was fun. 

We had a Subway in the car for lunch on the way to the Forbidden palace. We then went to see Tiananmen square before Sunflower dropped us back at our hotel.

Day 1: Sunflower met us at the airport at 7:30am with a private driver. We then visited the Great Wall of China which was amazing. We caught the cable car up, walked along and took the slide down which was fun. 

We had a Subway in the car for lunch on the way to the Forbidden palace. We then went to see Tiananmen square before Sunflower dropped us back at our hotel. 

Day 2: Sunflower met us in the Lobby of our hotel at 9:00. We went to the Temple of Heaven in the morning to see the park and the temple. We then had a Chinese lunch before going to the Summer Palace which was beautiful. After this we headed back to the Hutongs to wander around both old and new sections. By the end of the two days Sunflower felt like an old friend. 

Overall Sunflower is very knowledgeable and friendly. She tries to make the trip as perfect as possible. She took tons of photo\'s of us, listened to our preferences and tailored the tour to suit us. She pointed our the best clean and western bathrooms (very valuable!). She also gave us recommendations of places to visit/restaurants to go to on our own once our tour ended. I would highly recommend her tours to anyone and if I return to Beijing I will be using Sunflower Tours again.',5.0,'2020-02-20T08:15:14Z','REV-GXv0x2NNtISZbacg+euJIazyzr2QOiBLkRhbf8sH4Go=','en','Samsiebabes','TRIPADVISOR'),('67316P83','2-Day Private Tour of Incredible Beijing Highlights','Sunflower Tours- Amazing Guide and Service with Sunflower (Lei) and David!!','Wow, what amazing service and what a wonderful experience!

I had a great time in Beijing! It was really all due to the great guidance of Sunflower Tours. Not counting their airport pick up and drop off, I was planning on spending 2 full days on the ground in Beijing and wanted to see specific landmarks. As a solo female traveler, I took a hard look at the top rated tours on Trip advisor, reading them carefully to make sure I was going to feel safe, taken care and see the places I was really interested in seeing. Sunflower took in all my requirements and within 12 hours (remember the time difference), had a very competitive quote with location information for pick up. From the beginning email contact to the “above and beyond” last minute customer service due to a missed return flight (no fault of the driver’s), I am so thrilled to have chosen Sunflower Tours. 

The scheduled airport pick-up went smoothly and I was greeted at the airport as promised and dropped to my hotel. The following day I had an amazing full day tour with Sunflower herself. We went to the Temple of Heaven and viewed the morning exercisers, Tiananmen Square and walked through to the Forbidden City. We had a late lunch and then finished with a walk through the traditional hutong neighborhoods. It was a great mix of walking, subway and driving to look at some of the most amazing sights Beijing had to offer. On top of this, we enjoyed two wonderful meals, one of which gave me my later taste for dumplings and the dinner was the best hotpot I ever had! Better than that I made a new friend in Beijing!

The second day, I toured the Great Wall (Mutianyu) and the Summer Palace. The drive was about an hour and half out of Beijing to the Great Wall and we were driven by a professional driver who waited for us at each stop during the entire day. During the drive, David (my fabulous guide day 2) gave me a lot of background on China which taught me a lot about Chinese history, customs and the various regions of the country. We discussed everything from the various empires and rulers of China to the great growth over the last 20 years that Beijing has experienced and how the city has expanded exponentially. Arriving at the Great Wall, we didn’t have to take the shuttle bus with David’s VIP pass and instead walked up the hill directly accessing the gondola to be able to summit to the first watch tower. I was able to enjoy as much time as I wanted at the Great Wall and walked from Tower 14 to Tower 21. I think I spent about 2 ½ hours or so on the Wall. Except for the last steep summit, David escorted me the entire way discussing various subjects about our respective countries. As always he was happy to take any and all pictures. After the Great Wall, with my newfound love for dumplings (the ones Sunflower introduced me to the day before), David was in contact with Sunflower to adjust the lunch meal to suit my request for a dumpling spot on the way to the Summer Palace. I might add, all the dumplings I’ve had, far surpass most Chinese-Americanized restaurants in the United States. Our last stop was to the Summer Palace. As always, being with David who is a friendly and experienced guide, he could give me all the history of the Palace which was so much better than being in a large group listening to someone shout things out or not having someone like him who was always happy to answer all my questions. 
I would highly and without question recommend Sunflower Tours to anyone coming to Beijing or of any of the other cities they service. The tours I had were in conducted in excellent English and I would book them again in an instant!',5.0,'2020-02-12T10:39:28Z','REV-PsGkYHnmuEZiUZBM4aV+FoeULFjoDY8Nv/6yaKnsEWw=','en','vwconvdc1195','TRIPADVISOR'),('67316P83','2-Day Private Tour of Incredible Beijing Highlights','Great Two Days Beijing','We visited Beijing on a two day stopover while on a cruise.

We didn\'t have much time in Beijing and wanted to pack in all the sites we could.  We only had two full days in Beijing and I am SO happy to say that Sunflower Tours was a great choice.  We were met at the airport at about 8 pm local time with a sign highlighting our names by Zheng who transported us directly to our hotel.  The next morning we met with Lei Li aka Sunflower who was to be our guide for the next two days.  

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.  We stopped for lunch at a local place and got to walk in a local neighborhood as well which was a nice departure from all the many monumental sites. It was a jam-packed day and know that there is a lot of walking.  So be prepared.  Also, there is a section outside the Forbidden City that is the Imperial Gardens (I think) that has a great hill with many steps.  If you have walking or stair climbing challenges, you may have to wait at the bottom.  But once at the top you can see all over the city and over the Forbidden City nicely.  At the end of the day we chose to see the Chinese Acrobatic Show.  With no disrespect to these artists, I would skip that show.  While only one hour in length, it wasn\'t anything I hadn\'t ever seen before out in the world.  If you have seen any Cirque du Soleil, then this might be a let down to you as it was to me. Plus, oddly enough, it was the most expensive thing we did all weekend.  It was about 220 RMB per person or about $33-$35 US.  On a side note, traffic in that city is ridiculously congested.  So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.

Plus, oddly enough, it was the most expensive thing we did all weekend.  It was about 220 RMB per person or about $33-$35 US.  On a side note, traffic in that city is ridiculously congested.  So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.

We didn\'t have much time in Beijing and wanted to pack in all the sites we could.  We only had two full days in Beijing and I am SO happy to say that Sunflower Tours was a great choice.  We were met at the airport at about 8 pm local time with a sign highlighting our names by Zheng who transported us directly to our hotel.  The next morning we met with Lei Li aka Sunflower who was to be our guide for the next two days.  

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.  We stopped for lunch at a local place and got to walk in a local neighborhood as well which was a nice departure from all the many monumental sites. It was a jam-packed day and know that there is a lot of walking.  So be prepared.  Also, there is a section outside the Forbidden City that is the Imperial Gardens (I think) that has a great hill with many steps.  If you have walking or stair climbing challenges, you may have to wait at the bottom.  But once at the top you can see all over the city and over the Forbidden City nicely.  At the end of the day we chose to see the Chinese Acrobatic Show.  With no disrespect to these artists, I would skip that show.  While only one hour in length, it wasn\'t anything I hadn\'t ever seen before out in the world.  If you have seen any Cirque du Soleil, then this might be a let down to you as it was to me. Plus, oddly enough, it was the most expensive thing we did all weekend.  It was about 220 RMB per person or about $33-$35 US.  On a side note, traffic in that city is ridiculously congested.  So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.

So be patient. Our driver Mr. Zheng was great and clearly knowledgeable. 
Day two we visited the Great Wall.  A highlight to our trip by far in my opinion.  I can\'t wait to go back to the Great Wall and explore it as early as possible and perhaps another section.  We went to the Mutianyu area of the Great Wall. We left at about 7:30 am.  It is about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive so plan accordingly.  It was VERY worth it.  We arrived about 9 am before the crowds but there was still plenty of people.  We chose to take the cable car up so we could spend maximum time on the wall. We spent a few hours walking, hiking climbing the wall.  The place was beautiful and I highly recommend it.  If you have no health issues I recommend climbing up to tower 20.  The climb is aerobic and will take some time.  We then proceeded back down from tower 20 past our original entrance point a few more towers to the \"speed chute\" as some call it. We chose to take the chute to sled down the mountain.  The cable car and the chute were separate costs FYI.  The chute is a simple sled with a hand brake and you can go as fast or slow as you want.  Be prepared after curves as sometimes there can be slow people ahead so I had to brake a bunch.  After the time at the wall (a total of four hours) we went for lunch about a five - ten minutes drive down from the wall at a local place. There is a Subway sandwich shop at the entrance to this part of the wall.  We passed on that.  After our excursion to the Great Wall we drove all the way back to Beijing only to go to the Summer Palace.  It was lovely and most park like.  If I had to do it all over again, I would spend way more time at the Summer Palace and bring a picnic lunch. 

So all in for the Sunflower Tours for two solid days, driver pick up and drop off at PEK airport and all the costs associated with the site entrance fees, cable rides, chute rides, lunches and acrobat show was about $1000 - $1100 US without gratuity for 3 people. We did also give a gratuity and I felt they went above and beyond. Tipping is a personal thing so I won\'t tell you what we tipped.

We were met at the airport at about 8 pm local time with a sign highlighting our names by Zheng who transported us directly to our hotel.  The next morning we met with Lei Li aka Sunflower who was to be our guide for the next two days.  

Day one met at 7:30 am and saw many city sites including Tienanmen Sq, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven.  We stopped for lunch at a local place and got to walk in a local neighborhood as well which was a nice departure from all the many monumental sites. It was a jam-packed day and know that there is a lot of walking.  So be prepared.  Also, there is a section outside the Forbidden City that is the Imperial Gardens (I think) that has a great hill with many steps.  If you have walking or stair climbing challenges, you may have to wait at the bottom.  But once at the top you can see all over the city and over the Forbidden City nicely.  At the end of the day we chose to see the Chinese Acrobatic Show.  With no disrespect to these artists, I would skip that show.

We were not given any direction on where activities were located once inside the homestead section, though there are signs it\'s a bit confusing. Our combo ticket included a small bag of mining dirt but we were sent all over the park before anyone could give us a clear answer on where to pick it up. The girl working the booth on the other side of the park was unsure of how many bags to give us even though we purchased 4 combo tickets. The mini golf had debris all over the course and our balls got stuck a few times in some of the obstacles.

There is a cubby for your loose items (hats, sunglasses, phones, keys, purse, shoulder bags, etc). Fun for all ages. Need to be 56” to go alone.

Gautape doesn’t compare. Good for English speakers too.','I went as a solo traveler speaking a little Spanish. This tour is legit. We started off early at 420 am from El Poblado park in a tour bus with ~40 people. At first, the tour is Spanish only. We stopped at a roadside restaurant for breakfast then arrived at a hotel that partners with the rafting company, around 3-4 hours after departure (8-9 in the morning). Here, the ones that are rafting/adventuring broke off from the tour bus (I’m not sure where the rest of the bus went). 

We changed clothes at the hotel and stored our things in a locked hotel room. The hotel will sell you a waterproof case bag thing for your phone, and also water shoes (crocs) if you need them for 20 mil each. Everyone took just their bathing suit, shirts, water shoes, and waterproof phone thing with them, plus cash in the waterproof thing. From this point you will be away for 6 hours, but there is a little tienda in the middle to buy lunch snacks and beverages.

We left this hotel and went to the rafting rendezvous. There were about 30 people total across 4 rafts with this one company (10 from this particular tour I’m reviewing). One of the guides, Johnny, speaks English which is a huge relief. I also had other English speakers from Caracao in my raft and they were real fun. Shoutout to them. 

The river is safe, warm, and beautiful. We rafted for a bit and it is Class 1- very easy. We also swam alongside the raft and stopped a few places to jump off trees and adventure. Then we got to a little beach for lunch snacks. After that we floated in the river no raft for 20 mins to the hike spot. Then we hiked up a small river to the cavern for 45 mins. I highly recommend bringing your own waterproof shoes with grip and a rock plate for this (I brought trail running shoes). 

The cavern is awesome. Completely pitch black with bats and owls that make screeching sounds. Out of this world. The guides gave everyone a flashlight. Totally safe and fun. We hiked through the cavern for 30 mins, then back to the road for 30 more mins where we were picked up and went back to hotel. We had lunch there and you can also buy ice cream and beers. Then the original bus picked us up around 430pm and we drove to Medellin. Traffic was bad that day and we got back at 11.

Be sure to tip your raft guide well.',5.0,'2023-07-18T21:49:35Z','REV-EiPsbh1kAhA1QOzh1RrAkgspBan1ZKs+aJ54lyR5C54=','en','Venture44283250780','TRIPADVISOR'),('67324P5','Tour to R&iacute;o Claro and La Caverna del C&oacute;ndor','10 out of 10','I\'ve been traveling Colombia for 6 weeks and we\'ve done tons and tons of tours. This rafting tour was absolutely the best tour we did. I went with my 6 year old daughter and we had a blast. We had breakfast and lunch including,plus the bus ride. Only down side was the long bus ride but it was so beautiful seeing the countryside of Colombia. The was was super comfortable. We went water rafting with the most amazing people and crew. Jonny and Sebastian were so helpful and kind. It was so beautiful rafting down the river ,then we walked up this magical river to a cave. The cave was out of this world with these oil birds who make these funny noises. Guatape was lame compared to this tour.',5.0,'2022-10-18T09:23:27Z','REV-8AxgKi4Kg9V4fAv0F0G/ibLRiJ3/4I7OV1zfZTzQQns=','en','292abrams','TRIPADVISOR'),('67321P6','Great Woodsman Zipline Canopy Tour Branson','Exciting zipline with great guides!','We had an amazing time on our canopy tour!
