Our guide Amber was really lovely; very knowledgeable about the history and very easygoing. Apart from showing us the Hutongs, she was happy to share many more things about the Chinese culture and lifestyle, and also invited us for some delicious food and drinks. Couldn't be more happier with our choice and definitely would recommend it and do another tour with Amber if we had a chance.”
