Hi,all. I'm new to this forum. I'm sorry if my question appears inappropriate...I will visit Beijing in the coming October. Does anyone know if English-speaking private tour-guide ( or private assistant ) available out there in China? I do not speak Mandarin, need a helpful hand, a charming girl to go through the independent journey.

Also, my intention is to fly to Guangzhou and travel northward by train in one week. Should I book a flight in advance from home or is it possible to book a flight in Bejing after I arrive? I want to leave Bejing two weeks after arrival and will enjoy this city before we return home. Any info appreciated.

BTW --- From some other websites people speak high on a local agency FunInChina (www.funinchina.com or info@funinchina.com), did anybody use it?

One must purchased a ticket for any transportation upon arrival in a city. In other words you cannot arrive in Guangzhou and purchase a flight ticket from Xian to Beijing.

In Beijing you may try either the Qiao Yuan Hotel or the Jing Hua Hotel ( average over night fare is $5 to $ 8 a night). There you may find english speaking Chinese guides.
