Great! I made a last minute decision to visit Summer Palace just the day before, and I have the visit planned for 9 am. They helped me secure the QR codes very quickly just before the tour started, and what I was surprised was the series of messages providing very detailed guides on how I should go about the tour and what I should see.

Provided clear direction on how to navigate Garden site which was clearly a very good value adding service when we only only expect some simple directions.
