Brilliant tour with Mike covering ancient to modern Chinese history! Mike picked us up at our hotel and took us in a taxi to the museum. He is very knowledgeable about all aspects of Chinese history and also gave us really interesting insights into Chinese society today. We were taken through the whole ancient exhibit, with an explanation of the importance of each key national treasure. We then finished in the exhibit about the communist revolution.
