David is an incredibly knowledgable, reliable, and entertaining guide. I made a last-minute decision to take advantage of China's 72-hour transit visa to stopover in Beijing and check-off The Forbidden City and Great Wall of China from my bucket list. David picked me up in a brand new van at exactly the time we agreed. Provided some great info during the drive (when I wasn't sleeping) and adjusted the schedule because of my flight. I really enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend David to anyone who wants to experience China with a great guy who has been a tour guide all his life!

A wonderful day at both places. A good combination of old and new. Patric was an excellent guide - very informative, good English, very amenable. Would recommend this trip to anyone wanting to go to the Summer Palace.
