Beijing Highlights & Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour

Three unhurried days covering everything a first visit to Beijing should include — the Wall, the palaces, the temples and the old lanes — with one driver and one comfortable car throughout.

An early start for the Mutianyu Great Wall (2.5–3 hours on the wall, cable car and toboggan available). After lunch, drive to the Summer Palace to walk the Long Corridor and cruise Kunming Lake like the Qing court once did. Evening drop-off at your hotel or a recommended Peking duck restaurant.
Tiananmen Square at opening time, then the Forbidden City straight through its 600-year-old halls (advance booking handled with our help). Climb Jingshan Park for the classic panorama over the golden roofs, then finish with a rickshaw ride and courtyard visit in the Shichahai hutongs.
The Temple of Heaven in the morning, when locals fill the park with tai chi and dancing. Afterwards choose your finale: the Lama Temple's giant sandalwood Buddha, the 798 Art District, or an early drive to the airport — the day flexes around your flight.
Route notes: Hotels are not included, but we're happy to suggest well-located options for every budget and route the days around your address. The order of days flips easily if the weather forecast favors a different Wall day.
One transparent day-rate per car covers the vehicle, driver, fuel, tolls, parking and the driver's own room and meals. You pay for exactly the days you use — no hidden 'empty return' charges.
Within reason, yes — that's the point of a private journey. Linger an extra hour at a viewpoint, swap an afternoon, add a village your guidebook flagged: agree it with your driver and our team and the plan bends.
