Forbidden city group tour with Option Tian'anmen Square add on

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.

We had an amazing tour offered by the amazing Mike who provided us with a lot of information and fun facts about the sites we visited. The forbidden city is extraordinary and there are so many nice spots to relax and take pictures. It gets pretty hot in the summer so bring a water flask and something to provide shade/protect you from the sun. Entry is way easier with a tour as you do not have to figure anything out for yourself and your tour guide will be more than happy to help you with information and directions even after the tour. Great way to start off a holiday in Beijing.

MOKO is the guy!!! We had an amazing experience with him as our tour guide at Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City! He is incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many interesting historical details that made the whole tour even more meaningful. What we appreciated the most was his patience and how approachable he was, he never rushed us and was always open to answering all our questions. You can really tell he enjoys what he does and cares about giving guests a great experience. If you’re looking for a guide who is friendly, professional, and truly knows his stuff, we highly recommend MOKO. Thank you for making our visit unforgettable! 🤗🤗

We had an excellent experience yesterday visiting the Forbidden City and Jingshan Park with our guide, Jay. From start to finish, the tour was well-managed and highly informative. Jay’s professionalism was evident before the tour even began; he reached out a day in advance with a detailed message and clear instructions, making the meeting process seamless. At the start of the day, one of our group members encountered a small logistical hiccup, which Jay handled quickly and calmly, ensuring we could proceed without delay. Throughout the tour, Jay demonstrated deep knowledge of the Forbidden City’s history, guiding us through the main areas and answering all our questions with ease. The pacing was perfect, with thoughtful breaks for coffee and rest, making the extensive walking very manageable. Jay is friendly, easygoing, and even provided a fantastic recommendation for a renowned Peking Duck restaurant. I highly recommend booking with him for a memorable and stress-free visit!

Vivian was a fantastic guide and was highly knowledgeable about the history of Tian’anmen Square and the Forbidden City. She texted us the night before for a confirmation of the tour, with detailed explanation of the meeting point and what to expect. Thankfully the queue into Tian’anmen Square as well as Forbidden City was not too long during our tour timing (~1hr) and we managed to cover a lot of ground! Do expect to walk a lot during the tour and wear comfortable walking shoes + sunglasses. Thank you Vivian for helping us to take many lovely photographs as well!

I have Peter as my tour guide to take me around the forbidden city. The whole tour was very well paced, small group size and professional guided by Peter, with a good balance of walking and learning about the history of forbidden city. He was very engaging and knowledgable. The best highlight is the beautiful scenery at Jingshan park after the walk up. thank you, Peter, look forward to booking him again for my future trip.

Mike is good tour gide. Mike was very knowledgeable and friendly. The explanations about the history and culture were clear and engaging, which made the whole tour much more enjoyable. He were also very helpful and attentive to everyone in the group. I had a great experience.

Mina is my tour guide today and I am glad that she is our guide because she is very knowledgeable and patient. her communication skill is also very good. she explained everything in very detail and clear information. the tour was very enjoyable and definitely will do it again ! and she also gave a us a small gift and we are very appreciate !

Our guide is Mr Miko has fluent English so we can easily understand the context of the history. He has unique information in several part that mostly skipped by casual visitor in forbidden city. There is enough break session and almost walk by 12K steps during the tour. Better to prepare your self

We had a fantastic tour with Jimmy, it was super interesting to hear about the history of the forbidden city and the emperors / dynasties of China. The highlight for me was the end of the tour when we climbed up the hill in Jingshan Park to see the view from there. It was super crowded because Beijing had just experienced snowfall so all of the locals were also there for the view, but it was worth it! Thanks again for an awesome tour Jimmy!
