Mutianyu Great Wall and Summer Palace

Mutianyu Great Wall - A private English-speaking driver will pick you up from your hotel and take you directly to the Great Wall at Mutianyu. The journey from your downtown hotel will take approximately 1.5 hours. Upon arrival, your driver will assist you in obtaining all necessary tickets and will wait for you at the designated meeting point. The most popular route is to take the chairlift up and the toboggan down, but you can also choose the cable car for both directions. Your driver will provide the best advice based on your preferences.

Summer Palace (Yiheyuan) - After hiking the Great Wall, you might feel hungry. There are several lunch options available, and your driver can recommend restaurants based on your preferences. After lunch, it will take about 1.5 hours to drive to the Summer Palace. Your driver will also assist with ticket purchases and wait for you at the meeting point. If you wish to pass by the Olympic Park, please inform your driver. If not, the driver will take you back to your hotel.

Olympic Park - Drive by

Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven with optional Hongqiao Market

Beijing - A self-guided city tour without a guide can be challenging due to limited parking and the need to book Forbidden City tickets in advance, which often sell out during peak seasons. When booking this self-guided tour, please provide all passport names, ages, and numbers so tickets can be booked in advance. This is the only ticket included in the two-day tour. However, last-minute bookings may not guarantee tickets, so early booking is advised.

Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang) - Your private guide will take you to the first stop after picking you up from your hotel. The driver will drop you off at the entrance of Tiananmen Square, where you will need to go through security checks, which can have long lines during peak seasons. Please bring your passport on the day.

Forbidden City-The Palace Museum - After Tiananmen Square, you will proceed to the Forbidden City. As mentioned, if you book this tour, we will secure Forbidden City tickets in advance, allowing you to proceed directly to the entrance where staff will check your passport. There is no parking at the Forbidden City exit, so your driver will meet you there and walk about 6 minutes to the parking area. Note that the exit can be crowded, so arrange a meeting time with your driver before being dropped off at Tiananmen Square, or call your driver before reaching the exit.

Temple of Heaven - After exploring the Forbidden City, you may want lunch, and your driver can recommend local restaurants based on your preferences. After lunch, it takes about 30 minutes to drive to the Temple of Heaven. This location is much easier to navigate than the Forbidden City, and your driver will suggest the best route based on your interests.

Pearl Market (Hongqiao Market) - The market is close to the Temple of Heaven, and the service day lasts 8 hours. If you wish to spend more time at the market, the driver can drop you off and conclude the service. If you are still within the 8-hour service window or are willing to pay for additional hours, your driver will wait and take you back to your hotel.
