Private Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall and Summer Palace

About this activity

Visit the Great Wall of China at Mutianyu and the Summer Palace, both UNESCO World Heritage sites, on a full-day private tour from Beijing. The Great Wall of China is one of the most popular attractions in China, yet the Mutianyu section attracts fewer visitors, which means you get a less crowded experience of this world-famous landmark. Then learn about the history of the majestic Summer Palace as you stroll through its lavish gardens, sprinkled with temples and other eye-catching features.
