5.00We had a wonderful day visiting the Forbidden City and Mutianyu Great Wall. There weren’t many tourists at the scenic spots, so we really enjoyed our tour. Our guide Alice and driver Master Chu provided excellent and thoughtful service throughout the trip. They were professional, attentive and did their utmost to make our journey pleasant. We are totally satisfied and highly recommend this tour!

5.00I had a nice day visiting the forbidden city in the morning and the Great Wall in the afternoon. Joe was the guide and he was very good explaining everything about the history of China during the dynasty periods. Between the two attractions there was also a lunch buffet included in the tour. Everything was perfect!
Great experience

5.00We had a great visit to the Forbidden City and the Great Wall with Wendy. Her deep experience was very useful to help us efficiently navigate the queues and routes at each attraction. She was flexible on the itinerary to meet the needs of my family. She enthusiastically shared details of history, culture, and daily life in Beijing. Highly recommended!
Unforgettable Day in Beijing – 10/10 Experience!

5.00We had the most incredible private tour of Tian’anmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall, and we owe it all to our phenomenal team: driver Chu and tour guide Joe! From the moment we were picked up, everything was seamless. Chu kept us comfortable all day with cold bottled water from a cooler (a lifesaver in the summer heat!), and he navigated the city with calm efficiency. Joe was simply outstanding, extremely knowledgeable, incredibly kind, and so generous with his time. We asked a LOT of questions throughout the day and he answered every single one with patience, clarity, and insight. His passion for Chinese history and culture came through in every story and detail he shared. The itinerary was efficient but never rushed, we got a deep, personal look at each iconic site without battling the crowds or feeling like we were on a strict schedule. This private tour exceeded every expectation. If you’re considering it, book it. Joe and Chu made it a highlight of our trip to China! Can’t recommend enough!
