* We usually pick up from hotels in the central and eastern
districts of Beijing. If you stay in the western districts such as Haidian,
or in the airport area of Shunyi, you may be asked
to take subway or taxi in order to join us in downtown Beijing. We can
pick you up separately with additional 100 yuan for a private
transfer. This is to make
sure our bus can leave Beijing before the stifling morning rush hours. Thank
you for your cooperation!

TOUR DETAILS:
1. Our English-speaking guide will pick you up at
your hotel between 7:30-8:00am.
2. We will then make the 2-hour drive to the Great
Wall at Badaling. This was the first section of the
Great Wall open to the public, and is the most
famous and well known. This is where U.S. president
Nixon came on his historic trip to China, and is a
popular spot for visiting world leaders and
dignitaries (U.S. President Barack Obama came here
in November of 2009). This section of the Great Wall
affords some magnificent views of the wall winding
and twisting its way along the hills. You will have
two hours to hike and explore this section of the
Great Wall. (The price of the cable car to and from
the wall is not included in the tour price.)
3. We will then stop for a traditional Chinese lunch
at the Jade Art Restaurant, taking about 30 minutes
to eat.
4. We will then drive to the northwest of Beijing to
tour the Summer Palace. Originally built in the late
1700s as a resort for the Qing Dynasty emperors, the
palace has been repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt due
to invading armies. Highlights include the
extravagant Marble Boat, Suzhou jie (made up to
resemble the canal town of Suzhou), climbing
Longevity Hill, and strolling along Lake Kunming. It
will take about an hour-and-a-half to take it all
in.
5. You then have a chance to get some traditional
handicrafts and curios at a local market. Be sure to
bargain hard, because you can often get something at
half the asking price. Our guide will give you a
hand!
6. By 6:00pm you will be dropped back to your hotel,
ending your day with us.
