BEIJING SCAM ALERT!!! 🚨 You've Been Warned!

[Ms. Wanda Kilback]

This is terrible! It's the first time I've actually heard a tour guide say, 'You can't leave if you don't buy anything.' Now I'm at the exit, and they're checking everyone's receipts one by one.

[Kevin Harris]

@StarsOnTheRoad This one's a rip-off too.

[Sammy Schiller]

The bus directions to the Great Wall from Qianmen are really clear, I just didn't have time to go.

[Steve Beatty]

Yeah, I took the public bus before. This time, bringing my mom, I got lazy. They said they'd pick us up right at the hotel entrance.

[Leslie Kunde]

Ah, I even bought a group tour to Badaling, 80 yuan per person for a round trip (entrance ticket not included).

[Velma Thompson]

It's okay! I'm sure you'll find a good tour too! Don't worry! Happy New Year!

[Dr. Wade Boyer]

Thanks. I was planning to charter a car to the Great Wall, but now I'm too scared to.

[Franklin Weimann IV]

What they said about joining a tour for the Great Wall is true, but the rest is a bit misleading. There are more convenient and faster ways; perhaps you haven't experienced them.

[Karen Zulauf]

What do you mean?

[Joanne Swift]

So cute, sis! Where did you rent the 'Gege' (Manchu princess) outfit?

[Helen Gleason]

Hahaha, thanks, sis!!! It's in Century Mansion, Block A! Go up to the third floor, first shop on the right!

[Theresa Sporer]

Couldn't you call the police when they were checking everyone's receipts?

[Hugo Witting]

I was scared.

[Benjamin Dooley]

Any accommodation recommendations?

[Alejandro Runolfsdottir]

This one. It's near Wangfujing.

[Karen Zulauf]

Wangfujing needs a reservation?
