We have a 13 hour 20 min layover in Beijing but are scheduled to land at 11:55. Would we still have enough time to do a tour e.g. the Great Wall and forbidden city before they are closed or would this not be possible ? Thanks
Hi Harry,
Thank you for contacting us!
According to your arrival time, I do not think you will have enough time to visit the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. Because the Forbidden City will stop entering at 15:30 and the Great Wall will stop entering at 17:00 in winter.
So we recommend you visit the Great Wall and Old Beijing Hutongs. We just sent you an email about the tour itinerary, please check.

Hi Ava,
According to your arrival time, I do not think you can visit both the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. Because the Forbidden City will stop entering at 15:30 and the Great Wall will stop entering at 17:00 in December.
We just sent you an email about the tour options, please check. Thank you!
Hello,
We are a couple from Poland and we are arriving on 12 of November around 13:20 and our next flight is leaving at 01:15 at night. Taking into consideration the customs at the airport, do we have time to visit the Great Wall and the Forbidden City? Or would it be better just to visit one place?
