Reviews: Beijing Highlights: Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City: In-Depth Tour (Multilingual Guide)

The Forbidden City is truly exceptional; I highly recommend visiting it if you are in Beijing. Our guide was great, very friendly and very professional.

The tour includes an entrance ticket to the Forbidden City and the Treasure Museum. Your ticket is tied to your passport! Don't forget it. There were 10 of us in our group. Entry through the main southern gate was quick. Pick up your bag for the morning after 9 a.m. The tour lasts about 4 hours. The grounds are so vast that you won't be able to see everything. We visited all the main halls and the gates leading to them, the chambers of Empress Dowager Cixi, the Treasure Museum, and exited through the North Gate. Unfortunately, no one is allowed inside the halls, and it's difficult to see much through the half-open doors and dirty glass. The Treasure Museum was incredibly crowded, so we couldn't get a good look. Chinese New Year was probably a factor. The tour was well organized. Our guide, Alina, was very responsive and helped us not only with the tour but also with other pressing questions. However, I personally missed more detailed historical facts (which is why I took the tour, as audio guides often fail during independent exploration).

Guide Wang's explanations of the Forbidden City are incredibly professional! He effortlessly connects the historical context of the Ming and Qing dynasties with the architectural regulations of the palaces, providing detailed and thorough explanations of everything from mortise and tenon joinery to court anecdotes. His presentations are engaging and insightful, avoiding rote memorization. The itinerary is well-planned, avoiding crowds and allowing you to discover lesser-known facts. He patiently answers questions throughout, maintaining a perfect pace. Following him on a tour of the Forbidden City not only lets you see the sights but also deepens your understanding of the cultural heritage behind them – a truly enriching experience!
Reviews: Beijing Prince Kung's Palace Museum Half-Day Tour - Includes Admission Ticket for 10-Person Group/20-Person Group/Independent Traveler Group/Multiple Group Types
Guest User2025-12-29
Our guide Mr Wang was extremely knowledgeable and humorous. It was an extremely informative tour, and he brought his own materials (prints) to supplement the tour to explain the history of the mansion. Great references to 还珠格格, the famous TV drama featuring a fictitious princess of the Qian Long emperor. You need to be quite fluent in Chinese and have a basic understanding of Chinese imperial history to truly appreciate what Mr Wang is sharing. Suitably impressed with the tour and I will recommend it to any history buff interested in the history of Qing dynasty.
Reviews: A one-day tour of the Palace Museum in Beijing [Pre-sale for Chinese New Year, including admission | Detailed lectures by a scholar | Gift of precious artifacts]

The scholar mentioned that Director Li led us on a tour of the Forbidden City, a treasure of human civilization. Six hundred years of history are frozen between its red walls and yellow tiles; the magnificent grandeur of the "Palace of a Thousand Palaces" speaks of the highest realm of Eastern aesthetics and wisdom. Every step is a journey through history, every glance a cultural epic. Director Li guided us through the Forbidden City with professional and in-depth explanations, cleverly planning the route, showcasing his exceptional professional skills. His words conveyed a positive historical perspective, skillfully blending knowledge with fun, allowing the children to understand the weight of six hundred years of history amidst laughter. This journey was not only a cultural baptism but also a vivid transmission of values, yielding far more than expected!
