Sunflower is an excellent tour guide and took us around the Hutongs giving tidbits of information along the way. It’s a great time to spend with friends and learn about the area. The drum tower has great vies and Houhai park is beautiful. I highly recommend the tour

Our Beijing hutong bike tour with sunflower was fantastic. Sunflower was very responsive throughout the booking process and happy to help us personalize our bike tour to meet all of our requested stops. I scheduled a private group tour with Sunflower to celebrate my wife’s birthday with friends and her and all of our group loved the tour. Highly recommend sunflower for this tour or any other sightseeing events you want to arrange in Beijing. She was great.!! Will definitely book another group event with sunflower tours.

The day we did this bike tour was one of my favourite days in Beijing. We got to see some really authentic parts of the city and Sunflower and Lina were incredible! They were kind, knowledgable and great fun. We saw so much and I’ve now decided I want to do a bike tour everywhere I go. There is a list of things to see in the day and an approximate time of how long it lasts but they were really relaxed and at the end of the tour we passed a lovely little street with some cute shops and they let us go and spend our pennies whilst they waited around for us and it was no problem even though it added 45 minutes to the tour. We also stopped half way round and had the most delicious lunch - They sorted everything and we all loved it! Sunflower is one of my favourite tour guides I’ve ever had and I’ve done my fair share of travelling. She is a truly lovely woman who couldn’t have done more for us. I’ve recommended this tour to everyone I know that is going to Beijing and the 7 other people I did it with said the same. Definitely pop one of Sunflowers tours on your list of things to do whilst in this culture capital!

We had the luck to find SunFlower Li through Tripadvisor, since we travelled to Beijing with my wife and two sons just by ourselves and we realized that we needed a tour guide to make the most out of out visit She was the only one responsive out of the four companies I contacted, she replied fast and created the programs customized for us We like riding bicycle, so she organized this lovely bike tour around the hutong area of Beijing , an area that we have never gone just by ourselves because we were afraid to get lost on the alleyways What an experience! Wondering around the narrow streets, seeing how locals live and do shopping! We were transported to the real China, not the touristic one We also rode along a beautiful park, and visited the magnificent Bell and Drum Towers She also organized a cooking class tour at her Aunties house that evening We kept the warmest memories from China thanks to the bright Sunflower’s smile
