Explore Badaling Great Wall and the Ming Tombs—Beijing’s iconic cultural treasures—with our private transfer service for a hassle-free day trip.
Your journey starts with a timely pickup from your central Beijing hotel; step aboard an exclusive air-conditioned vehicle (equipped with complimentary water and light snacks).
Enjoy our biggest highlight—VIP access to Badaling Great Wall—to skip endless ticket and entrance queues, spending more time exploring the majestic UNESCO World Heritage site.
You’ll have ample free time to wander each site at your own rhythm: marvel at panoramic views from Badaling’s ramparts or delve into the grandeur of Ming Dynasty imperial mausoleums without feeling rushed, and you can choose between two packages when booking—private transfer (8-9 hours of door-to-door service with driver’s ticket assistance) or transfer + private guide (with a knowledgeable local guide to share historical stories, cultural insights and hidden gems for an immersive experience).

What to expect
This hassle-free private service takes you directly from your centrally located Beijing hotel to the Badaling Great Wall and The Ming Tombs, with 8–9 hours of dedicated private transfer in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Sit back, relax, and let our friendly team handle the logistics.
Upon arrival at the Badaling Great Wall, your private vehicle will drive straight to the cable car entrance – skipping the long walks and shuttle bus lines to get you to the action faster. (Note that entrance tickets and cable car fares are at your own expense, but the priority access ensures you spend less time waiting and more time wandering the ancient ramparts).
If you opt for the guided package, your knowledgeable local guide will accompany you on the wall, sharing fascinating stories of its construction, military history, and legendary role as China’s "Great Dragon".
After exploring the Great Wall, we’ll head to The Ming Tombs – the grand mausoleum complex of 13 emperors from the Ming Dynasty. Among all the tombs, we highly recommend a visit to Dingling Tomb: it is the only one with its magnificent underground palace fully excavated and open to the public. Step into the subterranean chambers to marvel at the elaborate stone carvings, royal burial artifacts, and the grand scale of Ming imperial architecture.
During the entire tour, you’ll enjoy unhurried free time at each attraction to explore at your own pace. Our driver will be on hand to assist with ticket purchases and ensure a smooth, worry-free journey from start to finish.
