Don't bother with pre-booking tickets. I was there in October 2019. I presented my passport at the ticket booth and was provided an entry ticket free of charge, along with a free sub-ticket for another section of the complex. And there was no line-up either. The same thing at the Summer Palace. Completely free as a foreigner. Only locals have to pay to get in. At the Forbidden City, the entry was not free but reduced from the regular ticket prices.

This is the second time I have booked a Tour to China through China Odyssey Tours. Vivian Young was my consultant through out the booking process, helping me customize my trip to China. Unfortunately I was force to cancel my trip due to the Corona Virus outbreak.

Anson was our tour guide. He spoke great English and had tons of knowledge about the neighborhoods we were walking in, which was also the location of our hotel. He gave us a variety of food choices, all delicious, but did give us the option to be more adventurous. We opted out of eating anything too exotic. We were so impressed with Anson, we signed up for a tour at the Forbidden City and requested him. He is extremely knowledgable about the history in China and tells it in a way that keeps things interesting.

This is an absolute must do. The Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square are amazing to see in person. The Great Wall was breath taking! My wonderful guide, Lucy told me so much about China's history and culture. She answered every question I could think of and gave my visit much more depth. I feel like I made a new friend! The lunch was delicious and our driver was friendly and kind. Completely worth the money. I highly recommend, and definitely ask for Lucy!
