Who knew history could be this much fun? Our guide had us giggling from the get-go, with jokes and stories that brought the Great Wall to life. Climbing those ancient steps felt like a workout, but with all the laughs, we hardly noticed the hike!

Then it was off to the Summer Palace, where our guide turned into a real-life storyteller. We wandered through the gardens, soaking up the scenery and the scandalous tales of emperors past. By the end of the day, we were tired but oh-so-happy, with memories to last a lifetime. Huge shoutout to our guide for making history feel like a day at the park!
