We had 13 hours in between return flights home from our honeymoon and wanted to see a bit more than just the terminal shops and lounges. We booked this tour last minute after we realized we hadn’t packed any winter clothes. Herbie and Mr Feng showed up with extra winter jackets that saved us and our ability to enjoy all of Herbies knowledge and fun facts on the forbidden city and Beijing’s hutongs. Our favorite part was trying local Beijing specialties at a restaurant! We would definitely book Herbie again the next time we’re in Beijing!
