My friend and I decided to book a tour for the next day to Mutianyu and Ming’s tomb. We made a last minute call to Peter and he attended our request with utmost patience and was very professional.
The next day, our tour guide Linda, came to pick us up from the hotel for our tour. The whole journey was really pleasant. The other travelers were really nice people too!
I would definitely come back for more tours should i come to China. Linda’s spoken english was good, service was good, and most importantly, no hidden charges for their services!
Thanks Peter!
