“Our guide, Lucy, was incredible! She had so much local knowledge and was super clear with her explanations. The hotel pick up service was so convenient as we stayed between the 2nd-3rd ring. Our group had 5 people (maximum 8) which was amazing as it allowed heaps of space to ask questions. The day was well paced, with the buffet lunch provided generous and delicious. Lucy even arranged a taxi for us to get home and checked in to make sure we made it home safely! This tour was the perfect way for us to experience Beijing and we would recommend it to anyone visiting China.”

“We booked a private tour to Mutianyu and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Communication in advance was smooth and friendly – we arranged the exact pickup location and our preferred time ahead of the trip. We all agreed to start as early as possible so we could enjoy the Wall before the big tourist crowds arrived. Our driver, Ken, was fantastic – very friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the day. He even took care of all the local arrangements, so we could just relax and focus on the experience itself. On the way back, he was kind enough to drop us off at a…”

“The tour arranged by Han Tang tour started right on time and we were picked up from the hotel. Our tour guide Michael Sch made all reservations on such short notice, it was excellent and unbelievable. We started with Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City next. Michael walked us through all important details. Later we went to a tea ceremony, lunch and then visit to a pearl shop. This part of the trip was also knowledgeable and a fun experience as long as you use your good sense whether to buy or not too. Later we went to the Summer Palace, took a boat ride and then finally Temple of Heaven. Only…”

Review of Beijing’s 7-hour tour of Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, and Temple of Heaven, with guide, lunch, admission, and hotel transport.

“this is a tourist trap. The guide didn't enter the forbidden city, he couldn't tell he was a guide so we buy tickets and later he gave the money back, he asked to di only a very quick visit and reach him at the exit. Then he brought us (after a tea house in which we were supposed to buy) to a Traditional Medicine Hospital where a "professor" suggested to everyone to buy very expensive specific herbs and spices to treat diseases. ... and so on ...”

Reserve Tiananmen Square entry in Beijing for $3.69, skip confusing registration steps, and explore one of China’s most symbolic public spaces.

“L'ingresso a Piazza Tienanmen è gratuito salvo fare una registrazione il giorno prima. Io avevo organizzato un altro tour, ma per ragioni logistiche la mattina ho perso il gruppo di riferimento, temevo quindi di non poter più vedere Piazza Tienanmen. Questo servizio mi ha permesso nell'arco di un'ora di ottenere la registrazione per una cifra modica. Il servizio è celere ed economico, lo consiglio vivamente per chi come me dopo molti tour organizzati ha voluto passeggiare in autonomia.”
