Description

After morning pickup at your hotel in Beijing, travel in an air-conditioned private vehicle to the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall, a journey that takes about 1.5 hours. The Mutianyu section is less crowded than other parts of the Great Wall of China. Ride a chairlift up to the top of this World Heritage Site, get great photo ops, and have the option to take a toboggan back down. Take a break for lunch in a local restaurant, then continue to the Summer Palace, located about one hour away. The Summer Palace features many beautiful pavilions, temples, ornate bridges, and a huge lake. Your guide points out highlights such as the Long Corridor, Seventeen Arches Bridge, Qingyan Stone Boat, Kunming Lake, and Longevity Hill. When booking, you can choose the all-inclusive option, which covers your private guide and driver, lunch, entrance fees, and tickets for the cable car and toboggan at the Great Wall, or simply book your private guide and driver only. Your tour ends in the late afternoon with drop-off at your hotel.
