Worst tour I had in all of China. Alice or Ally was the worst. They take you to Tea Shops and Pearl factories for longer amounts of time than they do the Great Wall or Forbidden City. It is all a scam so they can make commission on you buying things at the shop. They give you a 3 min wikipedia summary of the Wall and Forbidden City then they say Ok, you go up and I will wait in the car. Be back in an hour.
