Description
Visit Mutianyu Great Wall and the Summer Palace in one day from Beijing. Choose a shared bus tour with independent sightseeing, or a private tour with hotel pickup and a guide accompanying you inside both attractions. Both options include main entrance tickets to the two sites.
At Mutianyu, explore restored watchtowers and mountain views along the Great Wall. Then discover the Summer Palace's imperial gardens, lakeside scenery and traditional architecture. The guide service and transport arrangements depend on your selected option.
