What To Expect
Beijing
At 8:00, your private guide will pick you up at the hotel you booked on your own and then escort you on a private transfer to Badaling Airport. There, you will be briefed about the itinerary and guided into a R44 helicopter, which can hold 3 visitors at a time with big windows to provide excellent visibility. For 15 minutes, you will fly at lower altitudes over Badaling Great Wall and take in its major area - the ramparts, watchtowers and beacon towers scattering on it in contrast with wild nature around.

The Great Wall, Beijing

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00My boyfriend and I visited the Great Wall and spent a truly fulfilling and unforgettable day there. We hiked all the way up the mountain, soaking in the profound historical atmosphere of both the mountain and the Wall with every step. Standing at the summit and gazing out at the panoramic scenery, one truly cannot help but marvel at the wisdom and perseverance of the ancients. Along the way, we also encountered a few adorable cats that kept us company—walking and pausing right alongside us—adding many heartwarming little surprises to our climb. 🐱 However, the most exhilarating—and undoubtedly the happiest—moment of the day was the toboggan ride down the mountain. Whizzing down the track was both thrilling and fun; in that instant, I felt that every bit of the climb's fatigue had been entirely worth it. History, scenery, companionship, and moments of pure joy—it truly was a perfect day.

5.00Highly recommend! Our guide, Rocky, was very knowledgeable & humourous. He kept us moving at just the right pace so that we could take it all in but kept us to time - a great guide. The added bonus on this trip was that there were no shopping stops, it delivered exactly what it said it would. A great overview of 3 of the key sights in & around Beijing.
