Departure Point

Traveler pickup is offered

  • Shilingxia Scenic Area, Beijing, China
    Travel by private, air-conditioned vehicle to the Shilinxia Scenic Area, also called the Jingdong Grand Canyon. Along the way, head into the rolling hills northeast of the city and listen as your guide shares stories about the Stone Gorge and the Shilinxia Platform. After approximately 2 hours' journey, arrive at the Shilinxia gateway and admire the strangely shaped rock formations. Then, ride a cable car up the gorge's highest mountain. On arrival, take in the spectacular, circular glass platform protruding about 32.8 meters from the mountainside and suspended about 400 meters up. Don the shoe covers and walk onto the glass, absorbing the incredible views to the gorge base and across to Jinhai Lake and Mount Pan.
    120 minutes
  • Site of Ming City Wall Park, Beijing, China
    Afterward, savor lunch at a Chinese restaurant before making the roughly 1.5-hour journey to Beijing Ming City Wall Park. Drink in the park's peaceful atmosphere and see its showpiece: the last remaining, and restored section of the 15th-century wall that once encircled Beijing. Admire the 2-kilometer Ming-era edifice, noting its brickwork and bullet holes, and climb the Southeast Corner Watchtower, complete with 144 arrow windows, as your guide outlines its history.
    50 minutes
  • 798 Art Zone, Beijing, China
    Another option of the tour is to drive back Beijing to explore the atmospheric 798 Art District. Spend the afternoon browsing the many art studios, boutiques, and coffee shops, and admiring the many street art works and sculptures.

Although my trip has changed to go Gubei water town last minutes due to the roadworks, I appreciate the prompt confirmation from the tour agency. My experience with them is extremely great. Me and my mum had great time at the water town. Angie and the chauffeur, mr Zhang, were friendly too.

This is one of very interesting new spot destination around Beijing. We went there as a who.e family with grandpa and grandma and children. They have fun walking and cable car. Miss Angie, our tour guide is also very informative with any knowledge about history, education, and recent issues so we can hear from her a lot of information. The lunch is served well especially for the two of us who are vegetarian. Well done, reccomended to use this operator and any selected destionation from this operator. Thanksss
