Your guide will show you the imposing Monument to the People's Heroes, and the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, where the revolutionary leader's body is perserved.
The Palace Museum
It's a few minutes walk from Tiananmen Square to the Forbidden City, the home of emperors for over 500 years, and the largest palace complex in the world. Enjoy skip-the-line entry to this UNESCO World Heritage Site, and tour some of its grand halls and stunning gardens as your guide tells you fascinating stories.

Demi's knowledge of the attractions was excellent. She also knew how to avoid the lines - we didnt line up for anything all day but saw many people lining up for hours. She also has a great knowledge of Chinese culture and history. English was great as well.

Grace was our tour guide today and she was amazing, extremely knowledgeable and super helpful. We were tight on time as we had to catch a train but Grace amended and reshuffled our itinerary to ensure that not only did we get to see all the sights, the Mrs still managed to do a shocking (to me only it seems) amount of shopping and then she took us to the train station, came and sat with us in the lounge till our train was called and even handed us over to two station concierges that took our luggage all the way to our seats. Five stars all the way. Thanks for a wonderful time.

I highly recommend this tour! Demi was my tour guide and she was absolutely wonderful! Demi is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. She shared so much with me and I feel I learned so much on the day. There is a lot to see & take in - and Demi has an excellent way of explaining it all so well as you go through the tour. Highly recommended! Thank you Demi, it was a fantastic day 🙏

We booked 2 days with Demi Tour with the first being the Forbidden City. Linda our guide, was absolutely lovely and made the whole experience lots of fun. She kept the attention of our 2 teenage sons who could easily have gotten bored. Her restaurant recommendations were brilliant, giving us the experience of some real local food. Would highly recommend this team for all your visits in Beijing. Demi was also proactive and proposed airport pick up which was smooth.

There are many agencies offering trips to famous places in China. However booking a trip in China does not mean the trip will happen. For us it was a hard learning since 2 out of 3 trips pre-booked in advance were cancelled by other agencies with no alternative given to us. Demi Tour was the only agency that not only did not cancel the trip but also rescued us organising for us last minute trips that other agencies did not manage to do. Finally we were making all three trips with them. Each of the trip started with picking us form our hotel, travel with comfortable van, very friendly and flexible in an approach guide and driver. Everything was fitting to our needs and we felt comfortable in each moment. And Linda (our guide) did fantastic job. The content of the trip was good and great experience we will never forget. And we were one of very few foreigners lucky to get inside Forbidden City. That itself is not easy to do, since tickets are very limited in number per day and to buy them is almost impossible. When visiting Beijing we were lucky to find this operator and taking Private Tour with them was an excellent choice that we can fully recommend.

We were a family with 9 year old. Our guide George was amazing. His English skills are excellent. The entire tour was extremely well organised. George was also very patient with our son and answered all his queries. I would highly recommend George.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful my tour with Demi was in Beijing! Demi reached out immediately after I booked to introduce herself and let me know that she was able to help with any questions that I might have about my upcoming trip. She stayed in constant contact and was quick to respond when I reached out to her. As for my tour, she went above and beyond to ensure that I loved my time in Beijing! She’s extremely knowledgeable about Chinese history and has a true passion for sharing these historic sites with her customers! She also made some great food recommendations for me. If you’re coming to Beijing, Demi is who you want to show you around. You will not be disappointed! I’m only sad that she can’t accompany me to my next travel destination! Demi, thank you for a wonderful experience in China! I can’t wait to come back! Demi WhatsApp: 0086 13911825303 Email: [email protected]

Linda was our guide that day and we had a wonderful day. Her English is great and she has lots of knowledge about all the places that we visited. She's also very friendly, helpful and flexible which was very important to us as we were travelling with 2 children (6 and 9 years old). The driver was wonderful, friendly, reliable and flexible too. Demi also helped a lot with organisation, even though there were some trouble with booking tickets in the forbidden city, she quickly contacted us about the problem. Even though at the end the problem could not be solved, she immediately came up with alternatives to make our trip possible. I strongly recommend their service to anyone that's looking for a private tour in Beijing.
