Additional information

Other Reminders

• Mao Zedong Memorial Hall: Due to actual needs, the Mao Zedong Memorial Hall will undergo internal renovation and construction from March 16 to August 31, 2026, during which time it will be closed to the public.
• Forbidden City: Tickets for the Forbidden City are limited. We will do our best to secure tickets for you, but cannot guarantee them. Please be aware of this and understand. If Forbidden City tickets cannot be secured, we will arrange for one of the following: Jingshan Park (with a distant view of the Forbidden City), a Beihai boutique tour, or the Confucius Temple and Imperial Academy, with a refund of the ticket price difference. During peak season, there are large crowds in the square and at the Forbidden City, which may lead to long queues and waiting times. To ensure sufficient time for sightseeing, lunch will be served later. Visitors are advised to bring some food to stave off hunger in case of a late meal.
• Flag-raising ceremony: If the flag-raising appointment is not successful, it will be changed to watching the flag-lowering ceremony; if you cannot get up early to attend, it will be considered an automatic waiver, and you can arrange the meeting time and place with the tour guide to directly participate in the next attraction; the specific date and departure time of the flag-raising ceremony are subject to the tour guide's notification, and the subsequent itinerary time will be postponed accordingly; as the departure is early on that day, the hotel's packed breakfast is relatively simple, so it is recommended that you prepare your own snacks in advance.
• Badaling Great Wall: After ascending the Great Wall, visitors are free to explore. The guide will take you to the Great Wall scenic area, and will not provide commentary after ticket inspection.
• Please ensure your contact information is accessible. After a successful booking, your trip butler will contact you via email within 2 hours. If you do not receive an email, you can contact your trip butler using the supplier's email address provided on your confirmation slip.

• Upon arrival in Beijing, a driver will pick you up from the airport/train station and take you to your hotel. Typically, the driver will contact you about half an hour before you arrive at the airport or high-speed rail station, so please keep your phone on. For some guests with similar arrival and departure times, we will arrange shared car service, and the pick-up/drop-off route may include different hotels. Each order only includes one pick-up/drop-off service; multiple or various pick-up/drop-off methods cannot be arranged. In case of special circumstances where arrangements cannot be made, you will be notified to take a taxi to the hotel. Please keep your ticket receipts, and you can claim reimbursement from the tour guide with the invoice.
• Hotel check-in time is generally after 2:00 PM. If you arrive earlier, you can store your luggage at the front desk and wait a bit by exploring the hotel surroundings. Some hotels require a deposit at check-in, which will be refunded upon check-out under normal circumstances. On the last day, please check out before 12:00 PM.
• The meal standard is defaulted to ten people per table, calculated as eight dishes and one soup. If the group size is less than 8 people, the tour guide will refund the cost of the main meal on the spot and assist guests in arranging their own meals (if guests forgo meals due to their own reasons, the meal cost will not be refunded). When the actual number of people is less than or more than ten, the quantity and portion size of dishes will be appropriately adjusted while maintaining the same meal standard per person.
