Opt for either our Basic Package (driver service) or Guided Package (with English-speaking guide) to suit your travel preference—we’ll pick you up directly from your downtown Beijing hotel and kick off your unforgettable Beijing journey.

First stop: the Mutianyu Great Wall—a serene, postcard-worthy stretch far from the crowds, boasting well-preserved battlements and panoramic mountain vistas that paint a vivid picture of ancient China’s grandeur. For the Basic Package (Driver Service), our driver will handle all ticket arrangements in advance, then wait for you at the parking lot while you explore freely. For the Guided Package, your professional English-speaking guide will accompany you every step: take the round-trip cable car to ascend the Great Wall, listen to gripping tales of its military history and imperial legacy as you wander through centuries-old beacon towers, and enjoy ample free time to snap photos and soak in the breathtaking views. After the Great Wall adventure, we’ll head to a renowned downtown restaurant to savor authentic Hong Kong-style dim sum. Indulge in steaming dumplings, delicate pastries, and other Cantonese delicacies—each bite is a burst of traditional flavors, perfect for refueling.

Next, visit the Lama Temple (Yonghegong), one of the world’s most sacred Tibetan Buddhist sanctuaries and a masterpiece of Chinese temple architecture. Adorned with fragrant incense and intricate carvings, it houses the priceless sandalwood Maidala Buddha statue—a cultural treasure not to be missed. If you’ve chosen the Driver Package, the driver will await your return after your self-exploration. With the Guided Package, your guide will unravel the temple’s spiritual significance, historical background, and hidden stories, deepening your understanding of this sacred site. At the end of the day, we’ll safely drop you back at your downtown Beijing hotel. No hidden charges, no rushed itineraries—just a seamless, memorable day in Beijing.
