Hi, I’m a local certified tour guide and museum educator based in Beijing. With a deep knowledge of Chinese history, art and culture spanning 5,000 years, I specialize in bringing museums and historical sites to life with clear, engaging stories. I speak fluent English and previously worked in international companies, so I understand Western culture and travel expectations very well. I’ve also traveled widely across the US, Europe and Southeast Asia, which helps me design experiences that truly match what international visitors love. Born and raised in Beijing, I know every corner of this city like the back of my hand. I love sharing local history, culture, food and hidden gems from a real Beijinger’s perspective. If you enjoy meaningful, private tours that focus on history, culture and authentic local life, I’d be honored to show you the real Beijing. My goal is to create a unique, unforgettable and personalized experience just for you and your family.

I can’t imagine going to Beijing now and not contacting our new friend, CK! Not only is he knowledgeable and speaks great English but he’s passionate about serving others and demonstrating hospitality at every turn to unlock the treasures that lie in the ancient city of Beijing (and beyond). CK is a wonderful guide and even better ambassador for his city and country.

I had an excellent experience with CK C. as my tour guide in Beijing. He was extremely well organized, professional, knowledgeable, and made the entire day easy and enjoyable. In just one day, CK arranged for me to visit both the Great Wall of China and the Forbidden City, while still making the experience feel comfortable and well paced. He provided very comfortable private transportation throughout the day, including pickup from my hotel and transportation to the airport afterward. Everything was coordinated seamlessly, which was especially important since I had a limited amount of time in Beijing. CK was friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the history and significance of the places we visited. I was impressed by how smoothly he managed the schedule and transportation while still giving me plenty of time to enjoy both major attractions. I highly recommend CK C. to anyone visiting Beijing, especially if you want a personalized, well-organized private tour with comfortable transportation. He made my short time in Beijing truly memorable.

We had a wonderful experience with CK as our private tour guide during our visit to the Great Wall and the Forbidden City recently. CK speaks excellent English and has extensive knowledge of Chinese history. Throughout the tour, he shared fascinating stories and insights that brought the history and culture of these iconic sites to life. What impressed us most was his attentiveness and dedication to ensuring our comfort. Despite the hot weather, CK always put our needs first and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. He was also very patient and help us take many beautiful photos, creating wonderful memories that our family will cherish for years to come. We highly recommend CK to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and caring local guide in Beijing. Thank you, CK, for making our trip so enjoyable and memorable!

CK did an amazing job for me. This was our fourth time using TBL and CK was at standout. I was on a short time frame and CK did everything he to could to ensure I saw what I wanted and make my flight home. He was fantastic and would highly recommend him for anyone in the future.

If you are looking for a Tour Guide while in Beijing look no further! CK is the best out there. He took care of us like family. He was full of interesting information of all of the places we visited. He was patient in answering all of our questions and we had plenty. He stayed by our side and always made sure we were well taken care of.... going above and beyond our expectations. He did everything from teach us how to bargain to taking us to the best places to eat. We used his services several days and those were absolutely the best days of our trip!
