Authentic Chinese experience with Sunflower! - Greatest day with sunflower! We tried so many different things and Sunflower was absolutely amazing. Very friendly, and informative, and took great care of our little family. We did dumpling class in her own home, so it felt really unique, and authentic. Would recommend highly to everyone!

Highlight of the trip! 10/5 stars - Sunflower Li was a phenomenal host. We had no idea what to expect going into this adventure, but Sunflower made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. From traveling by train to cooking to playing badminton, my wife and I had a fantastic time. Trust me. If you want to actually experience a "day in the life" of someone from Beijing, this is the activity to do. You won't regret this experience.
