Overview

This is the tour that you don’t want to miss! Before you start your tour, at your hotel, I will confirm the specific sites that you prefer to visit. In addition, I will take you on Beijing's very convenient public transportation to some of the sites (bus or subway) to experience how the locals commute and understand better their daily life and customs. As an alternative, you may ride a rental bicycle to the sites! You will have an authentic Chinese lunch at a local restaurant as you relate your preferences to me. This tour is customized to suit your interests with me as an excellent English-speaking guide. If you want to have a foot massage to relax at the end of an unforgettable day, please let me know. I will arrange it for you.

Please provide your passport number and names if you want to visit the Forbidden City. It is a requirement for admission. I will help you to buy the entrance tickets online through my license. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you!

What to expect

  1. The Palace Museum
    2h · Admission ticket not included
    This is the most famous site in Beijing! Emperors lived and governed China for centuries from this complex. The architecture alone is worth the visit. But it also has a rich culture and history. I will tell you some interesting stories about who and what transpired here inside these walls. The Palace Museum has many priceless artifacts that were priceless centuries age and are priceless today! I know all the special places to visit to enhance your visit without standing in lines.
  2. Summer Palace
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Walk where the Emperors walked and vacationed! This is a most beautiful park complex. There are many stories to tell about the emperors and the artwork reflects their grandeur. I will take you on a short ferry boat ride across the lake where you can relax and enjoy the beauty of the park.
  3. Temple of Heaven
    1h
    The Temple of Heaven was originally constructed in the 1400s during the Ming dynasty as a place of worship to the heavens! It is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list and is described as having a profound influence on architecture and planning in the Far East for centuries. It was a place for high rituals and sacrifices all the way up to modern times.
  4. Hutong Tour
    1h
    Hutongs represent an important cultural element of the city of Beijing. Unlike the court life and elite culture of the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and the Temple of Heaven, the Hutongs represent the culture of the grassroots Beijingers. The Hutongs are residential neighborhoods which still form the heart of Old Beijing. We will visit these buildings and witness the life of the locals.
  5. Tiananmen Square
    30m
    One of the largest public squares in the world located near the city’s Central Business District and the Forbidden City. The square contains the Monument to the People’s Heroes, the Great Hall of the People, the National Museum of China, and the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong. The founding of the People’s Republic of China was announced on this square by Chairman Mao on October 1, 1949. We will walk through the Square on our way to the Forbidden City.
