Travel in this mini group tour to admire Beijing's four highlights accompanied by a professional tour guide. Start your morning with a visit to the Temple of Heaven, where you can see the splendid architectures and local people's morning exercise. A rickshaw ride through Hutong Alleys are followed to trace the life of old Beijing people. Then visit a beautiful old temple in the center of Beijing - Lama Temple. At last, explore the Summer Palace, where one can enjoy natural beauty and the grandeur of ancient royal garden.

We guarantee 100% No Shopping Stops in our tours. When you check some other tours, if they don't mention no shopping, they MUST have commissioned based shopping stops as jade factory or tea ceremony. Even you don't see shopping related words in their itineraries or product introduction, it is indeed a shopping tour. Be sure to check out with them about the shopping stops and read reviews from their clients carefully to see what the real experience would be. By joining a shopping tour like that, your time spent on attractions will be shortened, and you will be pressured to buy overpriced items. Normally the so called jade factory or tea ceremony is the tourist trap. You have to stay there an hour or more for those travel agents to get the commission of about US$30 per head from the factory stores. If you prefer to enjoy the tour thoroughly, you are suggested to choose a tour without any annoying shopping stops just like ours.
We offer free pick-up within the third ring road of the Beijing city. While Beijing is really a very large city, to ensure the morning pick-up going smoothly as scheduled, we suggest you choose centrally located downtown hotels. If the location of your hotel is beyond our free pick-up range, you may need to pay for extra mile transfers or get to an appointed meeting point. For any pick-up issues, your one-on-one travel consultant is ready to help anytime.
Travelers will be picked up in the morning according to their hotel locations. The exact pick-up time will be confirmed the day before. Please be ready at the hotel lobby at least 5 minutes in advance, which is the maximum waiting time. For travelers who are late, please go to meet the group and pay for the taxi personally. No-show is non-refundable.
Please provide the correct passport information for booking the real-name entrance tickets. And also please make sure to carry the same identification for entry while traveling. Otherwise, entry might not be permitted. If you forgot your passport and need to get back to fetch it, please pay for the transport and later meet the group by yourself.
Group Size: About 12 people. There are chances that 5% of the tour groups will exceed 12 people but we will make proper arrangements.
Departures are guaranteed with even three persons.
Since the Temple of Heaven is closed on Mondays, this tour designer carefully choose the visit to the Beihai Park instead of Temple of Heaven if your travel date happens to meet Monday.
Public Holidays: Please aware there will be large crowds and heavy traffic in Chinese public holidays like May Day from May 1st to 5th and National Day from Oct 1st to 7th. We will do the best to arrange the tour.
The time schedule of the itinerary is for reference. It will be adjusted according to the traffic and real situations.
Please wear comfortable walking shoes.

It was amazing! Lucy was incredible—taught us so much, made us laugh, fit in a ton in the day and even helped plan the rest of my visit booking show tickets and taking is to additional places we wanted to go after the tour—really the best customer service and best guide I’ve ever had!

We covered a lot of ground and saw lots of things on this tour but it didn't feel rushed.
