What's included
Product details

▲ We will take tourists to visit the Forbidden City first, where our professional English-speaking tour guides will explain every detail of it, including its history, culture, architecture and interesting stories. The commentary service at the Forbidden City is the most important part of our travel agency's services, thanks to our team of highly professional guides. Our Forbidden City tour has achieved excellent results and received rave reviews on Trip.com and TripAdvisor

▲ Tiananmen Square is a Beijing must-visit, but we've adjusted our combined tour after negative feedback: group queues there frustrated many visitors. We now organize only the Palace Museum tour and reserve Tiananmen Square tickets for you to explore independently. Upon confirmation of your booking, our tour guide will direct you to Tiananmen Square for a flexible self-guided exploration right after you complete your Forbidden City visit.

▲ From Tiananmen Square, you can view iconic landmarks including Tiananmen Tower, National Museum of China, Great Hall of the People, Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, and Monument to the People's Heroes (square access only, exterior viewing). For 8:30AM Forbidden City bookers, we'll reserve your Tiananmen Square entry for 12:00PM–6:30PM. For 10:30AM and 12:00PM slot bookers, your evening access is 3:30PM–8:30PM. (The Tiananmen visit time is flexible. If you don't wish to go after the tour, contact us and we can book any time you prefer, including the next day or other dates.)

▲ - (The tour package includes admission tickets to the Forbidden City. However, if you book the tour less than 7 days in advance during peak season, you may need to wait in line to get tickets with your passport on the day of the tour) - (For tourists from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and the Chinese mainland, you must make a reservation 7 days in advance. Reservations made within 7 days cannot be processed for ticket booking)

▲ - (After you place an order, our staff will contact you. Please check your WhatsApp, WeChat, email to receive our messages. We recommend that you download WeChat and Alipay and complete the real-name authentication before coming to China. Traveling in China will be much more convenient.)

▲ Want to add a Great Wall tour? Just reach out after booking—we'll handle all arrangements. Airport pick-up and drop-off services are also available
