Tiannmen square and forbidden city walking tour
It was a small group of 4 We were picked up at a good location and everything went smoothly Sophia was great well informed and took us at our pace. Definitely recommend.
History at forbidden city!
Fantastic trip for the day. We chose this as our day 1 trip to get up and used to the time change after a long flight. Lucy was amazing as she kept our group together and taught us about the history of the forbidden city as well as recent discoveries. She had a good sense of humour as well which made the trip even more fun. I would recommend this trip if you wish to learn about the history of the forbidden city but to also stretch your legs and get moving for the day.
Forbidden City tour
Thorough and excellent forbidden city tour, however we only drove past the Tianmen square and did not enter as expected, which was a little disappointing. We were told this is due to significant lines at the square to enter. We will have to book a trip to the square soon.
Most professional and well structured.
Covered the history of the forbidden city with knowledge and enthusiasm. Well structured, and most helpful in signposting us to our onward destination.
