Northern China Tours & Trips
Think northern China is all about Beijing? The region extends way beyond the capital. You've got the Great Wall, Beijing's Forbidden City and Temple of Heaven, Xi'an's Terracotta Warriors. Further out there's Datong's Yungang Grottoes, Pingyao's preserved ancient city, possibly Inner Mongolia's grasslands. Head to Harbin way up north for ice festival in winter. Northern China covers huge territory with millennia of history packed in.

We had a fantastic trip.
North China Ancient Town Exploration Tour In 11 Days - Private TourThe tour was good except the Forbidden City etc were closed, so we missed out on a considerable part on our Tour Agenda. Also on return to our hotel we had to be dropped miles from our hotel due to road closures and chaos. Then we could not get a taxi to the hotel to take us to the airport. We had to pull our big cases miles up empty streets to find a taxi. Very stressful for us as we nearly missed our plane home. The city was so unorganised and in chaos due to the army taking over and not at all considerate to anyone, least of all, tourists.
3-Day Beijing Classic TourThe tour was absolutely incredible. Every day the hiking was so different and the wall incredible. The food was excellent. Accommodation is basic but that is all part of the experience.
