Offered in: English

After a morning pickup from your hotel, you’ll travel comfortably in a private vehicle to Tiananmen Square. You’ll explore China’s history by visiting the National Museum of China and the Great Hall of the People. A must-see site is Chairman Mao’s Mausoleum, along with the Forbidden City. A delicious dumpling lunch is provided at a local restaurant, and then the next stop is the Great Wall of China. To avoid the crowds, you’ll visit a typically less-crowded section of the wall called Mutianyu. Once you’re at the Great Wall, you’ll have the freedom to hike for about two hours. Don’t worry about tired legs—you can take a cable car halfway up to begin your walk. For the ride down, you can choose the cable car again or opt for the more adventurous option of riding a toboggan. The day concludes with a return to your hotel.
