Best tour possible 🇨🇳 - Cathy was the best tour guide possible. She gave us the best highlights of the museum with plenty of historical insights. We learned the China dynasty history and we feel that we know all the important facts. Cathy was also exited and smiley! Passionate for her country’s history. We were impressed with her performance. 100% recommended.

Friendly guide - The main reason I signed up for the tour is it seemed really complicated to get tickets to the National Museum as a foreigner. It turned out to be a bonus that I had the friendly guide Mike, who was especially helpful in explaining the historical and religious context for the artworks in the main section of the museum, on ancient China.
