Mutianyu Great Wall Half Day Private Tour including Toboggan Down

Summary

Meet your driver-guide at your central Beijing hotel, and travel by private, climate-controlled vehicle to the Mutianyu section of China’s UNESCO-listed Great Wall. During your journey, hear tales about this restored stretch of wall, one of the most scenic and least crowded. Dating to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Mutianyu snakes across forested hills and is noted for its 23 densely spaced watchtowers. On arrival, gaze up at the incredible hilltop battlements. Then, with your pre-booked ticket, travel directly to the gate rather than using the shuttle bus transfer, and enjoy fast-track access. Choose a round-trip cable car ride (additional cost) to and from the wall, or opt to descend by toboggan (additional cost): riding a toboggan-style cart down the hillside. At the top, enjoy ample time to explore. Stride along the granite ramparts, inspect the watchtowers, and drink in the spectacular mountain views. Afterward, continue to a local restaurant for a Chinese dumpling lunch. Savor different varieties of these steamed-dough parcels, or choose another style of meal with recommendations from your guide. Drinks are available at your own expense. Finally, relax on your return to Beijing, where your tour ends with a hotel drop-off.
