After a morning pickup from your hotel, you’ll travel in comfort in a private vehicle to Tiananmen Square. You’ll learn about China’s history by visiting the National Museum of China and the Great Hall of the People. A must-see site is Chairman Mao’s Mausoleum, and the Forbidden City. A delicious dumpling lunch is provided at a local restaurant, and then the next stop is the Great Wall of China. To beat the crowds, you’ll go to a typically less-crowded part of the wall called Mutianyu. Once you’re at the Great Wall, you’ll have the freedom to hike for about two hours. Don’t worry about tired legs—you can travel by cable car halfway up to start your walk. For the ride down, you can choose cable car again or the more adventurous option of riding a toboggan. The day ends with a return back to your hotel.

We had an amazing experience with this tour package. Our guide ms. Susie was very cheerful all day and gave great explanations and insights about the Great Wall and Summer Palace. It felt as if we were hanging out with a friend! I would also like to thank our driver mr. Gu - easily the best driver we've had here in China, and we've been here for a few months already. Mutianyu is really less crowded than other sections and very beautiful area. We went to the Summer Palace in the afternoon and it was a pleasant experience also (we scheduled the trip in short notice, so the tickets to Forbidden City were already sold out). Highly recommend this day tour!

Dear, Thank you very much for your support and understanding. The Forbidden City is currently limited to 30000 people per day and ticket sales begin 7 days in advance. Generally, tickets will be sold out within 2 minutes. So, visiting the Forbidden City has become a difficult thing now, if you can book this tour at least 8 days in advance, we will try our best to order the entrance ticket for you. And both the Great Wall and the Summer Palace are UNESCO's 5A cultural heritage and top famous tourist attractions. I am very happy to hear that you have enjoyed this trip. We have been engaged in tourism work in Beijing for 20 years, and providing you with relaxed and enjoyable travel is our biggest goal. Looking forward to your next trip to Beijing. Best Regards Lily

Great day from start to finish. Prompt pick Up from our hotel, then straight to Tiananmen Square. We then spent about an hour and a half in The Forbidden City. Our tour guide Lisa was very informative and interesting to listen to throughout our time in the Forbidden city. We then travelled in our private car to The Great Wall. On route we stopped for lunch at an authentic Chinese restaurant that was very busy due to it being 1 January. Food was good. Then onto The Wall. Lisa led the way and again told us lots of information about The Great Wall. We were here for about 2 hours. Could gave been longer but we chose not to go shopping there. Then back into the car for return journey back to our hotel.

We would highly recommend this private tour and Lisa.

Sherry did a fantastic job showing us some of the best and most important sights in Beijing. She had already booked tickets in advance and was able to help navigate us through various gates and QR codes, which made the tour much smoother, and she was extremely knowledgeable, interesting, and friendly. Seeing these sights was at least twice as enjoyable because she was there to explain them and make conversation with us. I strongly recommend a tour with Sherry. We had a great time at Christmas because of her.

We were met by our guide Sally at our hotel who outlined what we would do that day. Then it was off to Tiananmen Square followed by the Forbidden City. We then set off to see the Great Wall stopping for lunch enroute in an excellent local restaurant where Sally suggested our delicious menu selection. We avoided the market at the Great Wall and then onto the cable car to the wall itself. Sally stayed with my wife whilst I set off to walk the wall. Sally took us back to our hotel contented after a long, but very interesting day.

This tour was absolutely the BEST!! Sherry was our guide and she was phenomenal. She was so warm and friendly and extremely knowledgeable. She went above and beyond, not only providing amazing historical and cultural information but also giving us tips and suggestions for activities and restaurants for the rest of our trip. Our driver was also very professional and a skilled driver. We only had a short time in Beijing and this tour was perfect to check off the major attractions. It was a truly awe-inspiring day. In addition to the major sites, we also visited a Jade factory where we were able to shop in confidence that the items were real and high quality, and a tea shop where we got to have a tea tasting and purchase certified quality teas. These were just a few of the cool bonuses of the tour. This tour was easily the best day of our entire China trip and worth every single penny! If you get Sherry as your guide you will be very lucky!

This was a great experience! Make sure this 4-5 days early to make sure you can get forbidden city tickets though! Lucy was our guide and did an amazing job showing all the sights and explaining the history. I loved the flexibility for what and how long each stop could take on this tour. Would highly recommend!

Really well organised and interesting tour of Forbidden City and Great Wall. Jerry our tour guide was brilliant, so helpful, friendly and knowledgeable! Nothing was any trouble and he even organised vegetarian/vegan lunch for us (just let him know in advance). Really recommend to anyone wanting a stress free trip to these amazing places.

Linda was our guide and was very professional and informative. Most of the time her English was great but at times it was a little hard to understand her and I had to repeat what she said to my teenagers. But she gave a ton of great information, picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel, and the included lunch buffet was excellent. I think the best thing about this tour is that it includes the major hot spots in one trip. I thought we would be rushed because of how much we were seeing but I didn't feel that way at all. We had plenty of time to roam and wander. I will forever remember this trip!
