A friend of mine recommended Daphne to me. My husband and I recently spent a day with her in Beijing. We drove to Mutianyu to see the Great Wall (went up to the site by chair lift, came down by toboggan - great fun!), visited the Temple of Heaven, watched a show of acrobatics, and in the end we caught...

I went to the great wall with Pau (Daphne was not available that day) and I had a great time. I was on a tight schedule and they were flexible enough to ajust the tour to my needs. Pau was very nice, not only during the wall visit itself, but also providing great tips for my stay in Beijing. They... More

We had two wonderful days with Daphne as our tour guide in Beijing. She was extremely informative, spoke perfect English and was very organized. From the time we landed at the airport until we left Beijing, Daphne was there to take care of our every need. She receives my very highest recommendation...don't waste your time looking for anyone else, she... More

My friend and I were in Beijing for several days and upon the recommendation of my son and daughter-in-law we contacted pau for a tour. We went to the Great Wall as well as The Forbidden City.

I had procrastinated about hiring a tour guide until just a couple of days before we went to Beijing but after reviewing the feedback here I had contacted Daphne to see if she would be available even though it was just a few days away. I knew it was a good choice when she responded back within one hour with... More

The last time my husband and I visited Beijing we saw the city via tour bus. This time Pau provided us a delightful day in Beijing via public transportation. Pau lead us through our planned itinerary (places we missed the last time) with some extras ones he recommended. We felt he provided us insight into the pulse of the city.... More

Friends gave us the recommendation for Daphne Chen Tours, so I contacted Daphne by email about 2 months before we left the U.S. Daphne responded immediately and in just a day or two of exchanges, we had an entire itinerary (including pick-up at the Beijing train station), detailed information about costs (very good value!) and felt like we were in...

Went on a two day tour with Pau. He was an excellent private tour guide. Extremely knowledgeable on all history and flexible to change anything on the tour as you wish. He speaks great english and truly made our trip to Beijing a memorable one. Highly recommend him!

My husband and I highly recommend Daphne as a private tour guide for Beijing. The booking and confirmation was efficient and quick, which was really helpful because I had contacted Daphne only a few days before our requested tour dates. Daphne provided all of the details of the recommended itinerary. That helped to eliminate the back and forth email communications.... More

I agree with others that Daphne is an excellent choice. We took (three of us) the sleeper train from Shanghai to Beijing and she and her driver were very accommodating, on time, knowledgeable and fun. She will work with you on your schedule and maximize the time you have so you can see as much as possible. Took us to... More
