Awesome Visit to the Summer Palace and Great Wall of China
We took the two days tour with Lisa. Our guide Lisa was extremely professional La and knowledgeable. She explained all about the history of the sites we located. She was also very attentive to our needs and safety. The car that took us every where was very comfortable. The driver was very on time and we did not have to wait. We got to try the Beijing duck which was amazing. At the great wall of China we also got to try the local grilled rainbow trout which was delicious too!

My family and I had a great time with Jessie on the tour. She was very considerate of everyone’s needs, knowledgeable, shared personal stories. She is personable and knew how to avoid the crowds. Our tour was in English and she was very fluent. Showed a good knowledge base and did a good job explaining. Our driver was very prompt and the private bus was very clean. Highly recommend!

Mina Li tour of Tianmen Square, Forbidden City and Temple of Heaven
Mina Li did a great job showing us around Tianmen square, the forbidden city and the temple of heaven. She is very knowledgable about the history of each of the locations and speaks English exceptionally well. Highly recommend using her for tours in Beijing. The driver and transportation was also seamless and prompt.

I wish I had this tour in every city I have ever visited!
We had the best experience!! Erica was an amazing guide! She is knowledgeable, patient, kind, and truly helped us make the most of our time in Beijing. We had our kids with us, and she was so good with them. They got us to each destination efficiently, planned delicious meals, and these were the best couple of days of our trip. We would definitely recommend this guided tour. It was also very nice having a great, safe driver. We learned so much, ate incredible food and had so much fun!

The only way to visit the forbidden city
Very informative. Our guide Vivien gave all the historical background while moving around. Adds a lot of value to what you see and walk through. Makes it a totally different level of engagement

How to get there
When to visit

Choose between standard entrance Forbidden City (Palace Museum) tickets and city tours that include access to the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace.
For a more personal experience of the Forbidden City and other Beijing highlights, choose a private tour.
As many as 80,000 people visit the Forbidden City daily, so it’s best to book tickets several days in advance or book Forbidden City (Palace Museum) tours that include skip-the-line access.
The Forbidden City offers little shade, so bring sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water if visiting on a warm day.
Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for a fair amount of walking if you really want to explore the Forbidden City.
