What are people saying about Beijing

Imke_M, Oct 2026

The tour was informative...

The tour was informative and well organized. Maggie the Tourguide was knowledgeable and ran a tight ship, which was important when making your way through crowds of people. Both the forbidden city and Great Wall need to be on any list when visiting China.

Viator Great Wall Tour was perfect!!!

This tour was fantastic! Our guide Rita was VERY knowledgeable and informative. The groups size of 10 persons was perfect. The weather was perfect. The Tea experience after coming down from the Wall was very educational. And the price was lower than competitor prices. When I asked my concierge, he told me this tour was 200 RMB less than his best competitor, and offered more! This is only the 2nd review I have ever posted online, but well-deserved. Take this tour from Viator to the Great Wall... without question. Thank you Rita and Viator!

Ranee will give you a great tour!

The Forbidden City is huge and full of history and artifacts. You need a guide like Ranee to lead you through everything, like the fastest way to get in, to learn about the different dynasties that built and maintained the City, and the many facts and back stories. Honestly, a few hours isn’t enough but Ranee gave us plenty of knowledge! Her experience comes through and we recommend Ranee to be your guide!

We really enjoyed our...

We really enjoyed our tour to the Great Wall. Our guide, Jessica, shared lots of information on our ride to the wall and during our time exploring. She also helped to book our chair lift / tobaggan tickets and recommended the best route for our group. Overall, I definitely recommend.

Luxury great wall visit!

Michael was our driver for the day in a luxury VOYAH car with heated seats and recliner chairs! Free bottle of water also. He drove us out to the great wall, sorted the tickets out and we paid him on AliPay, he waited for us to return from the top and showed us some gift shops, he even stopped on the way back to the hotel to a traditional Chinese tea tasting session which was really something different we didn't expect to do on the trip. He was very informative and interesting! Would highly recommend him and doing this trip!

Pamela_H, Oct 2026

A perfect evening with an excellent guide

Kathleen was fabulous and adapted the evening to the fact that I wanted to explore and experience more than learn the history, some of which I had known from past study. We did the right amount of walking and driving to get between sites, and she introduced to local restaurant that was perfect.

Excellent tour of World Heritage Sites

Jenny from Catherine Lu Tours took us on a thorough private tour of the Forbidden City and Summer Palace. She spoke good English and knew everything. These are huge places and a bit exhausting actually but need to be done in a lifetime. The Summer Palace by a lake is very pleasant and might be worth a day by itself if you have the time.

Beijing Forbidden City Ticket Booking (Optional: guide service)

kelsey_m, Oct 2026

Don’t stress about booking, have them get your tickets!

Excellent! I was worried about trying to figure out how to get tickets when they release one week before and run out quickly so this was perfect for me! I came during the Autumn holiday (busiest travel time) and didn’t think I would get a ticket. Grateful for the service and details instructions !

A must do...

May, our Guide, was superb. She confirmed with us the day before about meeting at hotel and time. All went perfectly, she tailored the tour to our liking - we wanted to start with and focus on Forbidden City. She was incredibly knowledgeable & experienced. I would recommend her & this incredibly impactful tour everytime. Certainly not something we could have gotten as much out of on our own. She was also kind enough to recommend a Peking Duck restaurant & make our dinner reservation. Thank you May!

Amazing hike on the Great Wall with no crowds

This was such an amazing experience. The view from the Wall was truly breathtaking and it was amazing to avoid the crowds that you can find at other sections. I would say you need to be in very good physical condition because it’s a challenging hike, with lots of up and down stairs and steep parts. But it’s all worth it. Thank you to our guide Jackie!
