The Itinerary

DAY 1 – Great Wall Layover Itinerary

Your private guide will meet you in the arrivals hall of Beijing Capital Airport, holding a sign with your name for easy identification. After you collect your luggage and pass through customs, proceed to the designated arrival hall where your guide will be waiting, typically near recognizable spots such as the KFC or Starbucks seating areas depending on the terminal. Once met, you will board a non-smoking, air-conditioned vehicle driven by an experienced local driver for a direct transfer to the Mutianyu Great Wall without any stops or delays. At Mutianyu, take the round-trip cable car to avoid the steep stair climb and save time, then walk along the Wall at your own pace, enjoying panoramic views and rugged watchtowers. Your guide will enrich the experience by sharing stories of ancient battles, strategic defenses, and the immense human cost behind the Wall’s construction. Although there is no lunch stop, soft drinks, cookies, chips, and chocolate will be provided to keep you energized without losing time. After your adventure, your guide and driver will escort you back to the airport, assist with your check-in, and accompany you to the security checkpoint before bidding you farewell.
