Great walking tour of the hutongs with Richard
Richard was a great guide - very enthusiastic and friendly - he took us to lots of different parts of the hutongs that we would never have discovered on our own. We loved being able to wander around at our own relaxed pace and at the end he took us up to the top level of a hotel with a great view of Tiananmen Square - a secret vantage point! Would highly recommend this tour with Richard.
