    Lovely time spent with our guide Susie. We visited the Drum Tower and saw the Bell Tower. We also walked round the lakes and went in a rickshaw through the Hutongs. Susie also assisted us to order food. Susie was a great guide - very knowledgeable and alot of fun. She really made the trip for us! Just to note the advertised itinerary shows a visit to a local family. This did not happen as apparently it was changed since covid but the itinerary does not reflect this.

  • Great tour:)

    This tour was interesting and our guide Lucy was very knowledgeable and fun. We visited a local family during our tour of the Hutong and saw how they lived. The drum performance was not on due to a conference but we still went up the Drum Tower via the very steep stairs and learnt about the history of the tower & drums.
