We did a 4 hour tour with Cactus, who was a great tour guide, with loads of information while also keeping our two children engaged and interested. Nothing was too much, and she helped us with restaurant recommendations for the evening. A big thanks to Cactus for making our first day in China a big success!

It was a very cold Beijing winter but our tour guide, Cactus made it a very memorable experience. She was very insightful and knowledgeable in regard to the complicated Chinese Dynasties. Cactus was very helpful and empathetic to our needs. She was fluent and articulated. Getting to the meeting point was a breeze via the well organised Beijing Metro without the traffic jam. We would recommend the tour as a highlight to the city of Beijing.

I had no idea how vast the Forbidden City is! Wow. It’s overwhelming in its size. Without our guide, William, we would have been wandering around. He knew exactly where to go. And shared amazing historical insight. It helped my children (11,12) really embrace it! This is not just “one more temple or pagoda” as your kids might say. This was just incredible. Thanks, William! We will definitely be recommending you and this tour to our friends.

A great way to discover the highlights of the Forbidden City and immediate vicinity. Visiting in a small group is really enjoyable (so many big crowds around). Our tour guide was super knowledgeable, well prepared and able to also answer the more unconventional questions in very good English. He also directed us to a nearby Hutong to have lunch after the tour. Strongly recommended! Thank you for an amazing visit.

We truly enjoyed the time with our guide Susie. She was very knowledgeable, but did not overwhelm us with details - it was just the right amount of information. Susie's command of English was very good, something I'm afraid to say still isn't too common throughout China. After the tour, Susie was kind enough to share some tips on where to go for lunch, where to buy tea and what to do on our own in the afternoon. I personally don't like "one day - visit as many things as possible" tours, so this half-day tour was great as it left us the opportunity to stroll around Beihai park in the afternoon. I would definitely recommend this tour!
