About this activity

Don’t miss out on exploring Beijing during your layover—book our customizable transfer service for a seamless adventure to iconic Great Wall sections (Mutianyu, Badaling, Juyongguan) and downtown attractions!

Choose from two flexible packages: private transport-only or transport plus a knowledgeable local guide, with a tailored 8–9 hour itinerary to match your preferences.

Your professional driver will pick you up in a private air-conditioned vehicle (5–55 seats, sized to your group) with complimentary bottled water on board. Transport-only guests benefit from drivers equipped with multi-language translators for smooth communication, plus assistance with ticket office directions; guide-inclusive guests get in-depth historical insights throughout the tour.

We’ll drop you off directly at Beijing Capital Airport (PEK) or Daxing International Airport in time for your onward flight.
