          Interesting history of the old dynasties of China. Lucia, our guide, was knowledgeable, and the presentation made it interesting.

          The guide was very good and engaging! We had a pleasant visit at the forbidden city. We were a bit late but the group waited for us which was nice.

          Fantastic Family-Friendly Guide – Engaging, Knowledgeable, and Thoughtful!
          Albert was an outstanding guide! He speaks excellent English and provided us with earpieces so we wouldn’t miss any important details. He’s perfect for families, as he engages the kids really well and keeps them interested throughout. His explanations of the history behind the attractions were detailed and captivating, making the whole experience truly enjoyable for everyone. Plus, he’s a great photographer — we now have some amazing family photos thanks to him. Highly recommend!

          Memorable trip
          A very well organized tour among the most recognizable places in the heart of Beijing. Our Anson guide perfectly completed the picture with a lot of information and curiosities. You have to be prepared to walk a lot.

          Great way to see Beijing cultural attractions
          Sherry was a great guide, she was able to explain all the symbolism and cultural significance of all the sites. The has a lot of walking so recommend a car if you have any mobility issues, but it is a great way to see more of the city. In addition to the sites listed, she also explained a lot about Chinese culture in general. Highly recommend!

          Really good tour
          We booked last minute and had so much fun and got so much knowledge, our tour guide Miko was really knowledgeable and helpful and even explained things we didn’t even think about, if we were to go alone to the forbidden city we wouldn’t know anything, really recommend this tour

          Lovely, educational and entertaining tour!
          Our guide, Cassie, spoke very good English and helped us patiently at all gates and checks. Her stories really brought the incredible sites to life. Our group loved the day visiting Tiananmen square and The forbidden city.

          Interesting, valuable
          The Guide was great and told us the history of the Forbidden City. His English was perfect and he walked us to places I would not see alone.

          My wife and I had an enjoyable experience touring the Forbidden City with Mike. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about the history and architecture of this amazing site. His storytelling was also entertaining, making the tour both engaging and educational. Mike’s passion for history and his friendly demeanor made our visit truly memorable. We highly recommend Mike as a guide!

          Memorable tour in the Forbidden City
          We had a private tour guide, Jack, with us at Tiamen Square and the Forbidden city. Jack communicated with us the day before to confirm our pickup time/location, and he arrived at the hotel on time. Jack was able to share his knowledgeable with us in an approachable, easy, and fun way. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with him that we booked a food tour with him for the following day. The driver was also lovely and provided us with water and snacks. The historical site is amazing, but having the historical context with to go along with it is simply priceless and added to our overall experience immensely!

          A tasty treat through the streets of Beijing
          We had an absolute blast walking around Dongsi with Jack, our guide. He was quick to communicate and offer alternatives during our time with him. All the dishes were thoughtfully picked out and we had a mix of both familiar and very interesting dishes. Regardless of what we were eating, it was all delicious and from very local places. The servings were very generous so come hungry! 10/10 would definitely do it again!

          Would recommend
          Our tour guide Cindy was wonderful! We had a great time. She took photos for us too! It ended up being a private tour (just myself and a friend) which was nice, and the driver was great too. Very convenient for visitors with a short amount of time in Beijing, we’d recommend!

          The best guide 😘
          Big thanks to the office staff for allowing us to modify the tour program. However, it was the guide Lily who ensured that we had a wonderful day and introduced us to the history and culture of China. She made our time very enjoyable with many stories and despite the poor weather it was a fantastic day. We would also like to thank our driver Hanthat's who picked us up and dropped us off at the airport without any problems and drove us safely around the city. I recommend and hope that the next trip with your office will be just as successful.

        As foreign tourists we were having trouble getting a reservation to enter Tian’anmen Square. We booked this tour and they took care of everything. Our guide helped us navigate all the security check points and we got to see the flag lowering ceremony at sunset. Afterward we did a walking tour through some night markets and got to experience some local street foods.
