    Tour Details
    • Travel China GuideOperator•Written September 2026

      Yes, we do. Please kindly check the details of following 3-day Beijing tour at the tour price of USD489 per person on double occupancy.

      3 Days Private Beijing City Tour

      Day 01: Arrival in Beijing, Airport Pick-up, Visit Hutong Alleys
      According to your flight schedule, your guide and driver will pick you up at the airport arrival hall, holding a welcome board with your name on it. They will then transfer you to the hotel. Check in and have a break.

      If time permits, we will arrange for you a Hutong tour by rickshaw to explore the old, local alleys of Beijing. Aside from this jolly ride, you'll also pay a visit to a local family in one of the old style folk yards.

      Accommodation: Mercure Beijing Downtown Hotel (4 stars) - standard room

      Day 02: Visit Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Mutianyu Great Wall
      After breakfast, we will pick you up at the hotel on time. The first stop of today is the Tiananmen Square, the very center of Beijing, representing the city or even China.
      Walking north across the square, we will come to the Forbidden City, a pearl set on the central axis of Beijing and China's historical crown. The world's largest and most complete ancient wooden palace complex.

      As today's lunch is on your own, try whatever that may grab your attention! If you want recommended restaurants or foods, ask your guide and they will be very glad to help.

      After lunch time, we will continue to visit the Mutianyu Great Wall. It takes us about 1.5 hours to drive to the Great Wall. Upon arrival, be ready to be captivated by its green vibrancy and dense watchtowers. Take a round-trip cable car ride we've arranged for you to revel in its landscape. Afterwards, we'll get back to hotel.

      Meals: Western buffet breakfast
      Accommodation: Mercure Beijing Downtown Hotel (4 stars) - standard room

      Day 03: Visit Temple of Heaven and Summer Palace, Airport See-off
      Visit the Temple of Heaven. Since it's where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties held the heaven worship ceremony, a main feature of this place is its circular shapes over squares, built so to echo the Chinese philosophy of "heaven is round and earth square", symbolizing the harmonious relationship between heaven and human. Then, your guide will accompany you to visit the Summer Palace. At the end of the city tour, we will escort you to the airport according to the flight schedule of your onward journey.

      Meals: Western buffet breakfast
