Smooth and enjoyable experience despite the large crowds. Highly recommended! The place is huge but easy to navigate.
Great but not for solo travellers who likes to have a whole body photo

It was a smooth transaction and instructions are given how to get in. Unfortunately, its not for solo travellers who like to have good photos. Since Tripods are not allowed. Even placing your phone in a flat platform is not allowed. I wish I was warned about this beforehand. Kinda bummer once your inside.
Great service

Book for forbidden square, had no issues at all. Communication was always clear. Recommended if you don't want to struggle with finding tickets.

Very good experience, the forbidden city is beautiful. We entered through tienanmen square. The queue was large and took us at least 30mins to enter but it was really nice. I think you can spend one day in the forbidden city. Prepare with food and drinks as there arent many coffes or restaurants. You exit at the north side of the city, from where metro stations are a bit far.
Convenient ticket booking for the Forbidden City

Everything worked well. The ticket was purchased in advance. I just showed my passport at the security check and was granted entry.
