Learn about the area’s history, take photos in front of Chairman Mao’s Mausoleum, and visit the Gate of Heavenly Peace. From here, enter the Forbidden City, skipping the long entry line and proceeding directly inside. Take in the traditional Chinese architecture, and hear all about the ancient Chinese emperors who lived here.

Overall a good day tour. Our guide William picked us up with his driver at our hotel, and we went directly to Tiananmen Square. We had a private driver and we were the only ones on the tour, so we never needed to wait for parking or for anybody else. This was very convenient and worth the expense, as car travel is very time consuming in Beijing.
After Tiananmen Square, we walked directly to the Forbidden City. Then our driver picked us up and we had lunch on the way to the Great Wall (fee not included). It took 2 hours to get back from the wall to the hotel. All the experience was smooth save for the usual Beijing traffic.
William is a full time tour guide, so he was very knowledgeable about the history of China and relevant events which happened at the tour destinations. He even drew out a detailed map for us by hand to show the location of the Great Wall and the reason why it was built at that latitude. William also said he specializes in foreign tours, which makes sense because his English was good.
For any tour in general, especially in countries where English is not the first language, I recommend you pick a tour agency which employs full time rather than part time tour guides, as I have found the quality of the tours to be much better.
Note that the Forbidden City and Great Wall are not wheelchair friendly. Expect a decent amount of uphill walking on the Great Wall if you wish to visit tower 20 (recommended).
Overall a positive experience worth the time and money. However I will likely not tour these locations again in the near future, because I think once is enough for these types of historical tours.

We are a family of four (3 years old and 8 month old). You could say it is crazy to go to the Great Wall and Forbidden City with small kids during winter but we managed to do everything with Cactus, our tour guide, great support. Not only she is very knowledgeable but also very understanding and able to adapt itinerary according to the needs of the family. She looked after our daughter whenever she was walking unaware of the slippery pathways. She would hold her hand if necessary and took lovely pictures of our family. Couldn’t be more grateful for having her as our tour guide.

For first timers in Beijing, I highly recommend joining a group tour or any tour because of the city's rich history, language barrier, and ease.
We were picked up from our hotel bright and early, and after picking up all the parties, we went to Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square.
We were handed a headset but the weather was so cold that the headset ran out of battery. Sophia did great explaining to the group that none of us needed it in the end. I particularly like how Sophia explained the different gates and history and meaning behind each landmark. This made the trip so much more meaningful and interesting.
After that, we hop into the van and went straight to Mutianyu to see the Great Wall of China. Before going up, we had a lunch at a restaurant of their choosing and it was ok.
We were given 2 options to go up the wall, the toboggan way or the gondola way. For the folks seeking for a little adventure, do choose the toboggan way.
We were dropped off safely to our hotel.
Overall, this is a great tour and I particularly appreciated the details and how the entire tour was composed.

Tom was an excellent tour guide. The entire day was smooth from pickup to drop off. He was knowledgeable about the Forbidden City and the history of the Great Wall. I used this day as a side trip when I was in China for work. It was the best part of the entire trip. It was me and four other people so the group was not big and there were other solo travelers. Tom also contacted me the next morning to give me a heads up that because it snowed the night before I would want to head out earlier than I had planned for the train station!

If you’re considering another company or excursion, don’t bother. This was by far the simplest, most convenient and educational day trip I’ve even been on. Not to mention, it was lots of fun!! I only had 24 hours to spend in Beijing and booking this tour was the smartest thing I could have ever done. From pick-up at my hotel, to drop-off at the train station, everything went smoothly. Cactus, my tour guide, had impeccable English, wealth of knowledge of Chinese history, world events and local culture. Both her and the driver knew the best spots to take pictures, avoid crowds, & routes to beat traffic from point A to point B. Not to mention, we stopped at the cutest traditional restaurant for lunch. (The food was BEYOND amazing.) Cactus also went ABOVE and beyond to ensure I made it back to Shanghai without any hiccups. If you think you can visit these locations alone, without a native - think again!

Hi bwalker86,
Thank you so much for your great feedback of Cactus and our tour! We have cooperated with Cactus for many years and we are assured of her service. So glad you had a great day with her! She is a wonderful tour guide with fluent Enlish-speaking skills and patience.
As you said, there is no better way to visit a city more than with a good guide. Hope you can come visit Beijing next time with a long holiday!

Our tour guide, Cactus, really showed us a great time. We had limited time in Beijing and managed to check off everything we wanted to see in one day. We felt we had plenty of time at each site and Cactus gave us great historical context for everywhere, as well as great places to take photos on the wall. Also loved the restaurant she took us to between the Forbidden City and the wall. Highly recommend both the tour and guide!

We had a great tour with Tom to the forbidden city & Great Wall at Mutianyu. Tom was really knowledgable and a great tour guide, he knew lots about the history and went out of his way to help us learn. Lunch was delicious, especially the di San Xian which is now my new favourite! Thankyou Tom for a wonderful day! Sarah & Chris from London.

We had an amazing day with enough time at the Great Wall to go from one end to the other end and back. Probably not everyone will come so far, but you can try.
The weather was brilliant, we had a perfect view and the wall is really a life goal everyone should have seen this.
Our guide Tom was very kind and he spoke english very well.
What also was very important to me: We didn't have to buy anything.
If you have the time just do it. This tour is worth every penny!

My husband and I from the US took this tour with another couple from Canada in late November. Susie was our tour guide and Mr. Lee was our driver. I booked the trip in advance on TripAdvisor (which is affiliated with Viator) and was sent the confirmation info in a variety of formats 24 hours beforehand.
PROS
- Navigating Beijing is difficult, even if you know a little mandarin. It was nice to have a friendly, English speaking tour guide and a driver for the entire day and leave the navigating to them. You could also ask additional questions about the tour, where to go in Beijing and learn some basic mandarin (Chinese) words as well.
- I booked the tour about a week in advance and was sent all of the pickup details needed in various formats (TripAdvisor link to all details, WeChat, Hotel message, iMessage if you have an iPhone) so you don't have to have your cell service turned on.
- Groups are no more than 6 people which is nice to be able to really get to talk with fellow tourists and have flexibility along the way as your tour.
- No surprise stops to jade factories, markets, or reflexology places that big bus group tours have. We stopped at a few souvenir spots that were on site that you might've done when on your own anyway, and there was no pressure to buy.
- No waiting in lines. We literally just walked through security bypassing lots of people at Tiananmen Square and Forbidden City. That alone is worth the tour.
- Pickup and drop off from your hotel.
- Drop off at The Great Wall-Mutianyu just a few steps from where you take the cable car or lift up (I recommend the lift up and toboggan down. So fun!). No waiting for a shuttle to the entrance like many other tours do or you would have to if you were on your own.
- Lunch included. Susie selected several items for us to try even taking into consideration any preferences or allergies.
- Good pace for the tour. Not too rushed and not too much information. Learn what it takes to become a hero :-)
- Susie and the driver were flexible enough to let us depart at the other couple's hotel since it was close to where we wanted to explore next.
- Susie was gracious enough to take several photos of us throughout the day at great scenic spots.
CONS
- For those who care even a little about photography, you arrive at The Great Wall right at noon which is the worst time for taking photos. We were blessed with a pretty clear day with lots of sun which was nice but challenging. If I had to do it over again, I would've chosen a tour that arrived at the Great Wall early or late in the day. If you have a DSLR, consider bringing a filter to help with midday sun.
-If mobility is an issue, this tour would be difficult because there is a lot of walking and The Great Wall has a lot of uneven paths/stairs. I think that's disclosed in the tour description.
-Tiananmen Square may not be open to tourists on the day of your tour. I'm not sure how far in advance you could find that out. We were fortunate that it was on the day of our tour (a Sunday).

I took this trip because of limited time in Beijing. After paying the information says to call no more the 24hours before the tour to arrange pick-up time and place. I had put down my hotel which was on the 4th Ring Road (although technically outside, rather than inside) and accepted that I may need to pay an additional amount for pick-up. However, I didn't expect it to be CNY300 (30% more than the total cost of the tour). I could have got a taxi into the centre for CNY50 each way or walked across the road; however this was not an option due to the difficulty in contacting the tour company. The tour guide said I must pay otherwise she would get into trouble. I made a complaint to the tour operator, however did not get any response. I would also say that the tour was not a VIP experience. I would not recommend this tour company and will not be using them again.

Hi, my hotel is located within the 3rd Ring Road. Is the bus able to pickup there?

Greater London, UK4 contributions
The ideal place is downtown, however, within the 3rd Ring Road should be fine. There is time enough to do that but you may be asked to be ready for the pick up early, perhaps 07:30 to 08:00.

Hello, I have an international flight to catch at 9pm on the tour day. Your description says the tour duration is about 8 hours, meaning will the bus come back to the hotel zone around 3-4pm? If not, what has been the actual/practical return time to the city considering the traffic? I am anxious to book the trip as I can't afford to miss the flight. Also, do you provide one way transportation to the airport after the trip is over? If so, what will be the additional cost? Thank you!

As I recall it is possible to book a trip which returns to the airport. Your luggage is held on the mini bus as you do you tour
Better to check direct with China Highlights though as I did not avail myself of this service
Good luck and happy touring

Just had a play on the Tripadvisor Booking form. Price for two adults is $364.66 AUD - and for 1 adult and 1 child the price is 336.94 - so a bit of discount for a child.

Hi, what hotels are in the 4th ring they talk about as far as pick up? Do you have any recommendations for a hotel? Probably 3-5 days.

Hi there,
The rings refer to the location in proximity to the CBD. If you google hotels in rings in Beijing a list will pop up.
We stayed at the Fairmont Beijing which I highly recommend. During our pick up of other guests who were on tour with us they were picked up from a hotel near sunlitan toad which is a popular bar street so this also forms part of the collection point. Hope this helps.

Can you choose to do the tebogan down after the Great Wall tour?
Vagabond VanHams
Janesville, WI1,907 contributions
Yes. You can opt to take the toboggan run, walk down or chair lift. I believe by default most everyone does the toboggan run down, only one in our group chose to walk back down. There is likely more cost for the chair lift, but if you plan with them they can advise.
