Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tour suitable for seniors?

Yes. Both sites have relatively flat walking paths. We can arrange a wheelchair-accessible vehicle on request.

Can we add the Forbidden City?

Yes, but it would make for a very long day. We recommend splitting into two separate days.

What is the best time to visit?

April-June and September-October offer the best weather. The Summer Palace is especially beautiful in spring when flowers bloom.
