As it was just mother and I we got picked up and was privately shown around all the spots. Went back in May 2025, perfect weather, not too hot or humid. Take a cardigan like I did as when you’re picked it’s a bit chilly in the morning but as the day goes by and the weather gets warmer, you get warm with all the walking you’re going to want to take it off. That’s if you go at this time of year. Please don’t forget your passport as to enter their touristic spots you need to show ID. The pick up is early but so worth it as getting into Tinamen square means no queues! Be prepared for a lot of walking too. Lunch was yummy and the perfect way to refuel for the walk along the badling part of the Great Wall. It is up to you if you want to go up in a cable cart but as you have limited time you’ll spend at least 1 hour in the queue just to go up having little time to enjoy on the wall and take in the views and miss the last one down then having to walk the whole Badling section down. This was the tip our tour guide gave and I’m so glad I listened to her! We slowly walked up, enjoyed the views, listened to the history the guide gave us and really took in the beautiful scenery. My mother stayed sat on a bit of the wall whilst I walked up all the way my little legs could take! Don’t forget your hiking shoes for that day as you’ll do ALOT of walking from early morning. Tiring day but well worth it. From our friendly driver, well informed tour guide, extremely knowledgeable and friendly to the beautiful scenery of Beijing Well worth it!
Incredible experience! We...

First I must compliment our tour guide Angie, she was absolutely amazing! Angie contacted us the day before to set expectations. We had an amazing tour of the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and The Great Wall. The views at The Great Wall were breath taking. We had an amazing lunch at a local restaurant along the way and learned so much about China. This is something you must experience! Definitely try to use Angie if you can to get the most out of this experience.
Amazing

Our tour guide Yuly - was fantastic. She picked us up promptly at 8:30 am and filled us in on all of the locations we would be going that day. We would start off at Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, and then off to the Badaling section of the Great Wall. And, where we would eat for lunch (which was included). She was knowledgeable tour and filled us in with all sorts of historical information - which we loved. As well as, answered our questions about different things. She was awesome!
