If you are headed to Beijing, then give yourself the gift of hiring one of these fantastic guides. Amy was my guide for three days in Beijing. She took me to see the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Wangfujing Cathedral, Tiananmen Square, the Silk Market, an Acrobat Show, and, my favorite, the Summer Palace. Amy was very personable, yet professional, always on time, and arranged for everything in advance. I didn't have to do anything other than wake up and meet her down in my hotel lobby. Best of all, she was incredible flexible if I decided to make last minute changes. She speaks wonderful English, has enormous patience with confused foreigners like myself, and has a warm and charming personality. Amy's guided services made my trip to Beijing absolutely amazing--hiring her was the best decision I made during my trip to Asia.
