Best tour guide ever!! Ronner explained all the details of the city, the Great Wall, and the Summer Palace to us. He was so helpful to consider our requests, and we got to change the original program a little bit. When went to eat authentic Peking Duck, which was probably the best we've ever had in our life. If I ever come back here, I'd definitely book with this company again.

If your travels include the city of Tianjin, and you only have 1-day, this flexible tour was worth it! My excellent tour guide Echo spent the day showing and explaining to me the various historical and cultural sites of Tianjin. The many highlights comprised of a view from the top of the TV Tower, visiting the Yangliu Qing Painting Museum and making a DIY print to take home, seeing and briefly exploring the Five Great Avenues, lunching at a local restaurant, admiring the porcelain house and visiting the home of the last Emperor Puyi. Echo and our driver were on time, Echo was very personable and the excursion made my last day in Tianjin very productive, educational and enjoyable!

A very special way to see the Spectacular Great Wall of China and the wonderful City of Beijing. We travelled from the UK with two friends for the Trip of a lifetime visiting China and Japan. Our biggest fear visiting Beijing was that we might actually miss something extraordinary, our Private guide Majorie made sure that we didn't. She took us to the fantastic main attractions and made sure that in the bit of free time we had she fit in the not so touristy places. In Beijing we ate in a quiet restaurant that was off the beaten track, and I have to say if I ever eat Prawns as good again I would be surprised. Thank you Majorie for making our visit truly the most memorable trip we have ever had.

We had a wonderful trip organised by Sunflower. We were picked up from our ship in Tianjin, put on a bullet train by the driver to Beijing where Sunflower met us at the station holding a large sunflower! With a private car & driver she took us to Tiananmen Square discussing the history, lunch at a typical Chinese restaurant Hutong; the Temple of Heaven; the Forbidden City then booked us into our hotel. Sunflower had arranged a restaurant for dinner for us. The next day we went to the Great Wall then taken back to the bullet train. We were met the other end & taken back to our cruise ship.

The artfully lighted up buildings, bridges and various spots along the riverside present a stunning picture of Tianjin at night, something not to be missed visiting Tianjin. You can enjoy all these on the Night River Cruise seeing the most beautiful side of Tianjin and enjoying the cooling breeze as you cruise along. Our guide Echo is friendly, informative and kind especially apparently visible helping my wife who has difficulty in walking after an injury during this China trip.

I contacted Terry out-of-the-blue, from Australia, to act as a buyer’s agent and he was excellent even though my request was outside the scope of his operations! I made an initial purchase when visiting Beijing last June with repeat orders made on-line. The subsequent on-line orders transacted without incident until the supplier suffered a recent Cyber Attack! The hacker imitated emails from the supplier regarding a change in banking arrangements making it impossible for me to differentiate between the two. Terry contacted the supplier directly on my behalf and provided the necessary verification. Well done Terry and I look forward to meeting you when next in Beijing.
