Highlight of my trip to Beijing - Enjoyed the tour very much. Clare was an excellent guide, very informative and helpful. Getting off to an early start is good, because it is worthwhile to plan on spending the whole day in the Forbidden City.

Excellent - Lovely tour with Jily the guide. This was supposed to be a group tour however as tickets were hard to get, I was the only one and hence a private tour was given. Highly recommend!
