Another great option for those short on time and want to explore other key sites besides Forbidden City and Great Wall. Jessie was superb, both in terms of sharing the history and also management of the whole day, we were able to get ahead of traffic and peak rush and ended much earlier around 4pm. If you are Muslim though the lunch options are very limited in Hutongs so grab a quick pizza and explore the area a bit more instead. Jessie also accommodated my request to be dropped off at the 798 Art District instead of my hotel (if you have opted for pick and drop) which was super convenient and fully recommended! Lots of great dinner options there and easy to get a taxi back home.

Thank you for your detailed and generous review. We are glad that Jessie's historical knowledge and careful management of the day allowed you to stay ahead of traffic and the peak rush—finishing earlier is a quiet luxury that many guests appreciate. It is also good to know that she accommodated your request to be dropped off at the 798 Art District; that flexibility is part of what makes a private tour feel personal. We also appreciate your honest note about the limited lunch options in the Hutongs for Muslim travellers. This is helpful feedback, and we will share it with our team so future guests can be better prepared. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us.

Wonderful Day Exploring Beijing!
We had a fantastic day exploring Beijing with our wonderful guide Helen. We visited the Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace, a traditional hutong and rickshaw ride, and Lama Temple, and each stop offered something different.
Helen was friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole day really enjoyable. She shared lots of interesting information about Beijing’s history and culture, including fascinating little details we would have otherwise missed. We particularly enjoyed the hutong experience and learning about the traditional homes and the meaning behind the decorative features above the doorways.
Everything was well organised, the pace was comfortable, and we never felt rushed. Helen looked after us throughout the day and made sure we had a great experience.
Highly recommend this tour and especially Helen as a guide - she made our day in Beijing memorable!

This tour was a lot of walking so be prepared. We felt that the amount of walking was explained correctly so de not play down your expectations.
Frank was a very good guide and went well out of his way to ensure that the group stayed together and an excellent and immersive experience of Beijing.

visit to Beijing with the excellent guide Michael
Today we visited the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, the Lama Temple, and the Hutongs, with also a pleasant rickshaw ride.
A special thanks to our guide Michael, knowledgeable, helpful, and never pushy: he explained the essential things to understand each place, always leaving us the freedom to explore independently.
Excellent organization, which allowed us to optimize time and minimize lines. Truly pleasant experience and absolutely recommended!

Easy access to the Temple of Heaven
With China Travel i was very easy to get tickets to access the Temple of Heaven. We also received advice on the best time to go, best access etc...
事業者からの返答
We are grateful for your words. A visit to a place like the Temple of Heaven often depends as much on preparation as on the site itself. We are glad the ticketing and the advice came together to make the experience feel smooth and well supported. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Great sights
When Rocky took us to lunch, he separated the group into their own travelling partners. As a solo traveller (the only one on the tour), this was really upsetting as most tours I’ve been on solo have included the whole group
