Excellent experience in Beijing !
We spent 2 days with Erica, our fabulous tour guide. We visited Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City as well as the Great Wall. The driver was excellent as well, very clean and comfortable van. Erica was extremely knowledgeable and was very accommodating to our schedule and preferences. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting China!

Awesome Visit to the Summer Palace and Great Wall of China
We took the two days tour with Lisa. Our guide Lisa was extremely professional La and knowledgeable. She explained all about the history of the sites we located. She was also very attentive to our needs and safety. The car that took us every where was very comfortable. The driver was very on time and we did not have to wait. We got to try the Beijing duck which was amazing. At the great wall of China we also got to try the local grilled rainbow trout which was delicious too!

Great for solo travel!
This was a great tour for a solo traveler and I appreciated not being tied to a group. Much more flexibility. Wendy knew all the great photo spots and where the lines were most likely to be the shortest. Her English was very good and she was knowledgeable on all the sites we visited. Traveling via subway was awesome too!

Fantastic Day
What a memorable day! Bobo was my tour guide and she truly made it the best day to hear about the history and her culture.
The lunch was amazing and there was a Jade shop underneath perfect for an authentic souvenir.
Would 100% recommend this tour and Bobo!

Funtimes with Ping!
Great! Easy to follow Ping. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Forbidden City has very limited shade so sunscreen and a hat will be good idea.

My family and I had a great time with Jessie on the tour. She was very considerate of everyone’s needs, knowledgeable, shared personal stories. She is personable and knew how to avoid the crowds. Our tour was in English and she was very fluent. Showed a good knowledge base and did a good job explaining. Our driver was very prompt and the private bus was very clean. Highly recommend!

When to visit

Choose between standard entrance Forbidden City (Palace Museum) tickets and city tours that include access to the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace.
For a more personal experience of the Forbidden City and other Beijing highlights, choose a private tour.
As many as 80,000 people visit the Forbidden City daily, so it’s best to book tickets several days in advance or book Forbidden City (Palace Museum) tours that include skip-the-line access.
The Forbidden City offers little shade, so bring sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water if visiting on a warm day.
Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for a fair amount of walking if you really want to explore the Forbidden City.
