China's capital city of Beijing is an important region to visit during any tour of this ancient country. It is not just a modern metropolis of twenty million people which serves as the headquarters of government agencies and key Chinese businesses. Beijing was also at the center of the imperial Chinese empire and the well-preserved landmarks of those dynasties attract millions of visitors each year. It is also a central location for excursions to different sections of the Great Wall of China to the north. Many aspects of Chinese culture can be sampled at the restaurants, shops, and parks of Beijing. In addition, most excursions to the popular sections of the Great Wall of China originate in Beijing. Unless you prefer to travel in a large group with a little control over your itinerary, it is worth considering enlisting a dependable guide and driver like Vivie Pan to organize your visit to Beijing and respond to your priorities.

Tours, Sites and Activities:

Vivie Pan offers a classical tour to the major scenic spots of Beijing focusing on family travelers and small groups. Some scenic spots in Beijing include the Mutinayu Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven, Tiananmen Square, and the National Museum. She or an assistant provide all the transportation so there is flexibility to work around the city traffic and satisfy the needs of each group.

Vivie designs a customized tour in response to each guest's requests and interests. These may include a side trip to the Beijing Zoo to see the pandas, a special restaurant experience, or a surprise birthday party or anniversary picnic on the Great Wall. Longer trips such as an overnight trip by train to the Mountain Resort and temple complexes of Chengde located several hours northeast of the city, which served as a summer retreat for the imperial Court during the Qing Dynasty from 1703 to 1912, can also be planned. Arrangements can be made for experienced guides to accompany hikers seeking an overnight stay or other adventures along the Great Wall.

Background and Experience:

Vivie Pan has been working as a tour guide since 2007. She is a professional and licensed English tour guide and driver in the Beijing area. She has her own van with seven seats and a brand-new car with four seats to provide private transportation for her guests.

Vivie reports that her company guarantees 100% satisfaction to clients, and she strives to treat every one of her guests as a friend when they are in Beijing.

My goal is to learn more from them and also to introduce my lovely country to the visitors. The tour guide is an important part of the tour experience for my guests, so I try to offer them a memorable Beijing trip."

My Family's Experience with Vivie Pan:

My wife and I used Vivie Pan for several days during our trip to Beijing and enjoyed her company immensely. Her knowledge of the history, culture and traditions of the Chinese people and their hopes for the future was thorough and open minded. From the central location of our hotel, we were able to travel to the major sites that we wanted to see comfortably and quickly and explore them at a pace that matched our level of interest. She also provided us with additional knowledge and personal instruction about the center of the city which allowed my wife to go shopping on her own along Wangfujing Street nearby and for me to take long walks to various parks and other interesting places in the vicinity. At busy destinations like the Great Wall, she would inform us about the different shops and food stands without pressure as to where to go or what to do, and her recommendations were always sound.

One special thing about Vivie Pan is that she is a self-made woman who has built her business through hard work, customer service, and referrals. She has a young family of her own and you can tell she is sensitive to the personal dynamics and special needs of each family she is serving. From looking at the hundreds of reviews and photographs on various websites, Vivie Pan has succeeded in her goal of building relationships with families from all over the world.
