What To Expect
Mutianyu Great Wall
Mutianyu Great Wall is a superb location to appreciate the grandness of the Great Wall as well as to avoid the crowds at Badaling. Mutianyu section, 2,500 meters (2,734 yards) long, connects the Juyongguan Pass in the west and Gubeikou in the east. Rimmed by mountains, it is filled with beautiful flowers in spring; abundantly verdant in summer; charming with red-leafed maple trees in autumn and enchanting covered in pure white snow in winter. Comfortable cable cars are available to facilitate climbing this section of the wall.
Forbidden City-The Palace Museum
The Forbidden City (Zijincheng) also known as the Imperial Palace (Gugong) and the Palace Museum) is the largest and best-preserved collection of ancient buildings in China. This site is an image of China relayed throughout the world on national days and at public events. Today, the Palace is filled with tourists but under the emperors, these "commoners" would have been executed had they dared to enter the complex! Given the popularity of the site, the Chinese government have invested a lot of time and money in the Palace and it is now a fantastic place to wander and dream of times gone by.

5.00A super kind, friendly, and always-smiling driver was waiting for me at the airport. My layover was short (just 14 hours), but we made the most of it! We first visited the Forbidden City, then headed to the Great Wall of China (Mutianyu section). The lovely driver waited patiently while I explored — we agreed on how long I’d need for each visit, and he was always there right on time. The weather was not the best, but this did not stop us! I couldn’t be more grateful for this wonderful tour and experience! P.S. I paid in cash (with money I withdrew from the airport ATM).
Benny and team are amazing!!!

5.00We have great experience with Benny’s guide and drivers service. Always on time and english speaking tour guide like Mr. Hill, Dora and Naomi really helpful. Help us to find halal food and gave a good explanation about the places we visit. Service rate also quite affordable. Just tell them where would you like to go, they will help you. Be prepared for some changes in activity if needed. Mr. Benny will contact you in advance. Recommended for people who will travel to beijing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
