One great tour of the middle kingdoms museum - Tour was just what I was looking for. My husband and I were able to better understand cultural relics beyond the explainations given in English. Many pieces that were intergral to history we may have missed without having a tour guide. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and there was 0 language barrier in English. At first when booking I was nervous because of the price for 4 hours but it was tottally worth it. The museum is also in a very security heavy area and with our tour guide we felt more comfortable with the whole process and we had no confusions for when to show our identification. Another reason I would recommend the tour is because it can be crowded at the museum and our tour guide was very helpful in helping myself stay grounded and calm with the crowding.

Great tour - Great tour! Our guide Cathy showed us the important artefacts and guided us to get the best angles for photos. The museum is huge, so a guide will be handy. Book this tour to save time. The museum is very interesting and worth the visit.

Fun and Informative Time ! - Went to Beijing National Museum and saw plenty of beautiful artworks. Cathy, our guide, was really knowledgeable and well-informed of the many art styles that we viewed. We saw the amazing millennium refrigerator and terracotta statues. Our time at the museum was fun and recommend going if you are staying in Beijing.

Insightful tour of the National Museum - Our trip to the National Museum of China was greatly enhanced by our tour guide, Mike. During the tour, Mike guided through the Ancient China exhibit located in the basement as well as briefly walking through two other exhibits. Mike provided detailed information about the history and meaning behind the artifacts which would have been missed otherwise. He also was able to answer many questions we had about them. The tour was about 3 and a half hours in total and took us through to closing time.

Great museum trip, historical teacher - Cathy was super knowledgeable, indulged all my questions with great answers. We saw all the best highlights of ancient China part. Cathy gave all the best details, brought the history to life. One of the exhibits I wanted to see was closed and she gave me a full impromptu lesson on the history. Learned a lot and had fun.
