We did an amazing tour of the forbidden city with Mike. Lots of stories détails and captivating us throughout this 4h long visit. I warmly recommend to do this to know more and learn a lot about this historical place !

Jack was our guide for this tour for my husband and I traveling with our adult son. He spoke English well and was interested in learning new words and phrases from us. He was very knowledgeable about Chinese history and the places we visited. He moved at a very fast pace which was perfect for us. Jack suggested adding on a Chinese acrobatics performance before lunch which we enjoyed. He helped us before dropping us off at the hotel make a reservation for Tian’anmen Square the next day through We Chat. It had been closed due to the African forum when we toured Forbidden City a prior day with a different company who had told us incorrectly that Tiananmen Square was also closed on Mondays so we thought we were not going to be able to see it before leaving China.

what made this tour so successful was Kevin our guide as his knowledge was fantastic and detailed his English was great and I could understand him He made us feel relaxed and his sense of humour and delivery made the tour even more engaging I really learned a lot about the history and architecture of china The tour itself was well planned, earpieces so we could always hear what was being explained Despite it being a last minute booking all went well and the meeting instructions very clear | easy to follow and precise Great value for money Well done Kevin I wiikd never have gained so much knowledge without you

Kevin is an excellent tour guide! Highly recommend! He is friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, fun and funny. There were three of us in our group and we were part of his tour group. He gave individual attention to each of us without compromising the rest of the group. He paid attention if people were bored or too hot or needed a break, so he would change his approach or route. Picked excellent spots to take a picture of each of us in the group and all of the pictures came out great! My absolute favorite part is all I learned about Chinese history, language and culture. He made it interesting and easy to understand and remember. I found myself seeing what I learned in his tour in other parts of China beyond his tour. Also, he was funny! 谢谢 凯文！ 再见！

Two of the must visit locations around Beijing! We spent a great day with Sherry talking about history, curiosities and Chinese culture. Very nice and kind person as the driver Sun who at the end of the tour took us to the city center for a last walk before dinner.

Mike’s tour of the forbidden city was great. He has interesting and novel stories and takes the time to show you around. He even explores the park north of the city. Recommended!

Huang took me on a fantastic tour of the Jinshanling section of the Great Wall. We were the only people there and Huang gave me an awesome history lectures in the car during our two hour journey there. stunning views and a very memorable experience. Simatai was also incredible and walking along the wall with it all lit up was beautiful. The water town is well worth seeing. An excellent tour and an excellent guide and driver.

I highly recommend this tour. Mike speaks fluently English. His explanations and stories about the Forbidden City are compelling. Due to his engaging manner the tour was over before you know

Our guide, Jay was very knowledgeable and helpful. We needed to get a taxi back to our hotel and Jay helped us get one, which was very nice.

Really great experience! I've lived in Beijing for 15 years, but brought some American friends that were visiting Asia for the first time on this tour and we all learned a lot. Mike is a great tour guide - he was extremely organized and had lots of fantastic historical facts and stories to share. Although the tour is quite long (~4 hours), it went by very quickly as he kept us entertained all the way throughout. Strongly recommend going on a tour with him and will be suggesting this as an activity to others in the future.

The tour was excellent. Our tour guide, Anson, was excellent from the start, and explained the history and meaning of what we were seeing really well. Tiananmen Square was an iconic place to see with the museum on one side and the Great Hall on the other. But The Forbidden City was a really special place to visit. Probably once in a lifetime, and I'm very glad I managed to see it. Thank you Anson.

Was a great trip with Mike from Discover Beijing Tours. Everything was super organized and the communication before the trip as well. Mike filled these 4 hours with so much information and stories. I can just highly recommend. The Forbidden City was the top of my trips thru the far east countries emperor cities(Kyoto, Seoul)!

Amazing tour by Mike! He has a lot of knowledge of the emperors and empress of the Forbidden City. It’s a 4 hour tour and it felt like it was over so quickly. Highly rated and highly suggested.

Our experience at the Forbidden City was exceptional thanks to our tour guide, Mike. He was thoroughly prepared and spoke perfect English, which made following along effortless. Mike’s insights and engaging manner brought the history of the Forbidden City to life. I highly recommend him for anyone seeking a knowledgeable and professional guide.

Excellent tour of Forbidden City with Mike, who was engaging, informative and insightful. We learned a lot about Chinese history and culture, and the crowds were far less than we expected so it was a very enjoyable afternoon. Thanks Mike!
