Our recent six-day trip to Beijing was an absolute blast! Traveling with kids can sometimes be tricky, but thanks to Zoe's thoughtful planning and our incredible guide, Alice, everything flowed smoothly and kept our little ones engaged and excited.

From the moment we arrived, the itinerary was perfectly tailored for our children. Each day was packed with activities that were not just fun but also educational. For instance, when we visited the Mutianyu Great Wall, the kids were thrilled to learn about its history and significance. They were amazed by the breathtaking views and even had fun climbing up the wall. It didn’t feel like a chore at all!

At the Morning Market, the kids were wide-eyed as they explored the colorful stalls filled with fresh produce and local snacks. Sampling some street food together was a highlight, and it turned into a mini-adventure in discovering new flavors! The atmosphere was lively, and Alice made sure to point out interesting facts about each item we saw, making it an interactive experience.

Visiting the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square was like stepping into a history book. Alice's storytelling skills were impressive; she made the rich history of these landmarks come alive for our kids. They learned so much about Chinese culture and traditions without feeling overwhelmed or bored. Alice had a knack for keeping the kids engaged with fun facts and stories that resonated with their age.

One of the standout experiences was Facial Makeup Painting. The kids loved it! They got to paint their faces like Peking Opera characters, which turned into a fun and creative activity. It was a great way for them to connect with Chinese culture in a hands-on way, and they couldn't stop giggling at each other's colorful creations!

We also enjoyed exploring the 798 Art Zone, where the vibrant art installations and sculptures caught the kids' attention. Alice encouraged them to express their thoughts about the artworks, which sparked some interesting conversations about creativity and expression.

The logistics of the trip were flawless, with each transfer being comfortable and hassle-free. Alice’s expertise shone through as she navigated us through the city, always ensuring we had a smooth experience. Her passion for Beijing and its culture was contagious, and it was clear she genuinely cared about making our family trip memorable.

As we reflect on our adventure, it's heartwarming to see how much our kids learned and experienced. The mix of history, culture, and fun activities kept them engaged throughout, and they returned home with new stories to tell and a deeper appreciation for China. This trip was truly unforgettable, and we can't thank Zoe and Alice enough for their thoughtful planning and dedication!
