We opted for visiting the National Museum, Lama and Confucius Temples. Everything we saw was instructive, beautiful and interesting. Our guide, James, was very nice and knowledgeable.

Private tour organised by Catherine Lu tours. Forbidden city and Tiananmen areas are closed due to preparations for the 70th national day, we decided to customize our own itinerary since there were limited tours available that didn't involved visiting tourist shopping traps. Comfortable private car with driver allowed us to go to 3 attractions in one day at a leisurely pace, have what we wanted to eat for lunch. Thank you to our guide Nico and our driver for the day.
