was a great day, our guide was super helpful and made good suggestions on what to do first so we don’t have to wait in lines ect, the tabbogan was soooo much fun, it was super crowded and very busy but still definitely worth going, lunch buffet was actually really nice but there are restaurants if you wanted to get your own lunch

The guide, Linda, was organized and constantly aware of not losing the group, giving us enough time for the entire group to arrive at each stop before offering her recounting on the significance of each building, relic or historical artifact. She spoke clearly and coherently, adding a touch of humour, always with a smile. The tour was well paced, not too hectic, despite the scale and depth of what was covered. Definitely worth your money!

Really enjoyed the whole tour experience, as our guide Allen was super cheerful despite us having to go through the tour on one of the hotter days in Beijing. Gotten really nice pictures and recommendations in the Forbidden City as well. Side note, please come well prepared with good walking shoes, sunscreen, cap/umbrella if you’re intending to do this tour during summer months as you’d spend at least 30 minutes going through the security check under the sun.

I found this tour on Klook, and our guide that day was Mr. Kevin. I traveled with my husband and our two young children, and our whole family had a wonderful experience. The schedule worked very well for our family, and the whole trip was well organized. We had enough time to explore both the east and west sides of the Mutianyu Great Wall. We also got to experience both the cable car and the toboggan, which the kids really enjoyed.
We were also lucky with the weather. It was sunny but not too hot, so it was very comfortable for walking around. Both of our children had a great time.
The lunch included in the tour was also very good. We heard that the company had carefully adjusted the menu, and it really worked well for both Asian and Western tastes.
Mr. Kevin speaks English very well. He was friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout the trip. His explanations and instructions were clear and easy to understand. The price was also very reasonable for the overall experience.

If you’re heading to Beijing, you have to do the Imperial Feast. The whole setup - red and gold decor, ancient architecture, traditional music - feels like stepping straight onto a historical drama set.
The best part? You can get fully styled in traditional Hanfu gear and makeup before eating. Walking into the dining hall in full costume while live dance and instrument performances play right in front of your table makes the whole night so much fun.
The food is delicious, beautifully presented, and served course-by-course with royal court etiquette. Plus, if you’re celebrating a birthday, the staff go out of their way to make a huge, special deal out of it!
It’s way more than just dinner - it’s an entire cultural experience. 100% worth it!

It is great to have Susie as our tour guide. She is very organized and gave instructions properly. She communicated in chinese and English and the tour was implemented seamlessly. She is very proficient in both languages. She even went the extra mile to offer us some drinks at a very reasonable price in case some of us did not bring enough water..

Very unique and great experience, the food is tasty. You can do the makeup and style as a royal, dressing up before the start of lunch. Overall, the performance, including the dance, music, drama etc. is impressive. If it's your birthday, you can also request a cake.

Our tour guide Michael was very accommodating and knowledgeable! The Mutianyu Great Wall is well worth the visit! Our family took both the cable car round trip and the chair lift and toboggan to see different stations. What a wonderful experience!

What to know before visiting Beijing
Quick snapshot of Beijing and what travellers book
Beijing draws strong interest for theme parks, guided tours and museum visits, with historical sites and cable car experiences also popular. Demand on Klook shows a pronounced spring peak and a quieter late-summer lull, so bookings cluster around a few busy months each year.
Best times to visit based on crowds and prices
Klook booking data shows demand peaks in April and falls to its lowest in August. Prices drift down through the spring and reach their lowest levels in May and June, while the priciest month on record is July. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in May or June; for the peak-season atmosphere and busiest activity choices, aim for April. Note that demand and price don’t move perfectly together here: April is the busiest month but prices continue to fall into May and June before rising again into July.
Tips for travellers
Most travellers on Klook tend to book about a week in advance, with some last-minute options available up to a few days before activities. If you prefer flexibility, many experiences can still be secured close to travel dates, but plan and book earlier for April when demand is highest. Use Klook to compare popular categories like theme parks and tours so you can lock in preferred time slots and avoid sold-out sessions.
