The tour was really good! Vanessa was very informative about the forbidden city and the square. she also answered all our questions and I was really glad that she was very patient with everyone. We went on a very hot day and she gave us rest times in between.

The tour was an amazing and very insightful experience. John was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the culture and history of the place which made the tour fun and interesting. He was also very well organised and the timing of everything was well planned out - I felt like we had sufficient time to do everything comfortably! John was also very friendly and approachable so it was easy to ask him questions. Overall this was a 10/10 experience and I hope to get John as a tour guide again in the future.

The tour guide Zhao Nan's pre-trip contact and related instructions were very clear and clear, allowing us to arrive and find the meeting point quickly according to the instructions. The tour guide's introduction during the process was also great, allowing us to listen to the historical stories easily.

The guide was very nice. Although he could not communicate in English, he tried to take care of us the whole time. We should leave on time according to the appointment and should provide a We Chat number so that the guide can contact us conveniently. The car was good and polite and not old. Going at night was much cooler than during the day. We got some beautiful sunset photos. It is a better choice for visiting the Great Wall in summer.
