The Perfect Beijing Tour - I was planning a 4 hour tour in Beijing due to a layover stay, and we starting the visit at Tiananmen Square. Because it has been my birthday, Mr. Mark has really surprised me, renting a bike and having a bike ride tour around the walls of Forbidden City.
The tour has been perfectly organized, over my expectation and I really reccomend Mr. Mark for the tours.
Once again thanks a lot to you and the driver. Everything was perfect and I hope to come back soon in China!

Exceptional Beijing Tour: Above and Beyond Expectations! - Absolutely fantastic experience! Our tour guide in Beijing went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. Despite being told that the Great Wall was closed, he didn't give up. With determination and skillful negotiation, he convinced the authorities to let us through, allowing us to experience one of the world's most iconic landmarks without the usual crowds. It was a unique and unforgettable experience.
Beyond that, our guide provided an insightful and engaging tour of the city. He took us through Beijing’s bustling streets, historical sites, and hidden gems, sharing fascinating stories and facts along the way. His knowledge of the city's history and culture was impressive, and his passion for his job was evident in every detail he shared.
The entire tour was seamless, well-organized, and tailored to our interests. We felt well taken care of and learned so much more than we could have on our own. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Beijing – our guide's dedication truly made our trip exceptional. Thank you for an amazing experience!

A taste of Beijing - We chose to have a long transfert in Beijing in order to make a quick tour of the city. Mark was a great guide and host, leading us to a quick but extremely interesting tour of the city. It was also a national holiday for China, so we found lots of people, but we made it. We also rented some bikes in order to see the last things, and it was amazing. We ha just a taste of Beijing, but surely we will come back and Mark would be a referenze for sure.

Great tour - We only had a few hours to visit Beijing until we had to take the next flight so we decided to get a guided tour. The guide Jenny was super nice and took us to many places very quickly including a restaurant where we had a delicious duck.

History about China - It was very interesting. A lot of walk but you learn so much about the History of this Country. The Guide was very nice and he can answer every question you have.

Intense and unforgettable day in Beijing - We had an incredible experience in the 20 hours we spent in Beijing with the guide Burton. He met us at the airport and from there we went to the main attractions in Beijing. We passed by Imperial Peace Square (Tiananmen Square), Forbidden City (Forbiden City), Park near the Mao Tse Tung Memorial, Jingshan Park (Coal Hill), we walked through the busy shopping streets at night. Intense and unforgettable! Many thanks to our guide Burton.

Short trip with family to beijing during a stopover - We can absolutely recommend the tour with Mark Ma and were completely satisfied.
At first we were a little sceptical about whether everything, especially the pick-up and drop-off at Beijing airport, would go smoothly, especially since we were traveling as a family with two adults, a baby and a 9-years-old boy. So it helped much that communication with Mark via email and WhatsApp (which also worked for us in China) was even in advance very good and always quick. The meeting point at Starbucks in Beijing airport was quickly agreed and everything went smoothly. The car was also great - new and big [a van] so we had plenty of space with 4 people plus foldable stroller etc. Mark was very friendly and tried to arrange everything according to our wishes and show us the highlights of the city. In summary, it was a great experience for us that we would never have been able to realize without Mark. Best rating ;)
