About This Tour
A best day tour to the Forbidden City and Great Wall is all about smart planning, comfort, and access to the most iconic landmarks in one efficient, unforgettable day. Skip-the-line tickets and timed entries mean no waiting in huge crowds at Forbidden city, and you will get access to lesser-known areas (like the Treasure Gallery or Clock Exhibition Hall) that most tourists miss. A knowledgeable guide brings the history to life—sharing stories about emperors, concubines, court life, and ancient politics. Instead of touristy Badaling, top day tours often go to Mutianyu—less crowded, beautiful, and offers cable cars or toboggan rides for added fun. You get maximum value in minimum time, combining two of China’s most legendary sites with comfort, depth, and style.
