A must do tour ! - Angela was our guide and she was great. It was a nice tour. Lots to see and a must see if you come to Beijing. All the explanations from the guide were great and she even helped us out in carrying our stroller.

Very informative but also fun tour - Angela was super friendly, considerate, and took very well care of us. You could experience how passionate she is for telling about Beijing‘s history and culture - all of this combined with her great humour. Thanks for the very informative tour!

Tour T - square and forbidden city - It was a great experience covering the forbidden city and Titanium square. Even though I got late, Linda was very helpful making sure tour happens and tried very much hard in making sure I cover all the parts of the tour. She was also helpful and providing many tips during the tour as to planning for the rest of the day. Overall great experience. Recommend for others

Excellent experience - Angela was a spectacular host and guide and very friendly as well. Starting with a bowl of tea, we navigated a gate closure via bus to save our feet and we were on our way. Her knowledge of Tiananmen Square and the forbidden city/palace museum was excellent and she allowed plenty of breaks for toilets, coffee and food. After the tour she helped guide everyone to their next destination and accommodated a few people who had to leave earlier as well.
