Besides, several route options are also available depending on your preferences. One of the more challenging route is the North Route Full Trek, which takes you from the North 1st watchtower to the North 12th watchtower. This route provides an in-depth exploration of the Wall, offering stunning views, but it requires considerable physical stamina, so it might not be ideal for families with young children or elderly members. For a more relaxed experience in the North Route, you could change to the Cable Car&Walking option. This allows you to take a cable car up to the North 7th watchtower, from where you can enjoy a leisurely stroll to the North 8th watchtower, known as the "Watching Sun Platform," with panoramic views of the Great Wall.
Each of these options gives you a chance to enjoy the beauty and history of the Great Wall while considering the needs and energy levels of your group. No matter the route, your guide will tailor the pace and itinerary to your needs, providing thoughtful care, detailed explanations, and photography assistance. This ensures a personalized, flexible experience that embodies our philosophy of "Travel Like a Local."


After taking in the stunning history and beauty of the Great Wall, you'll start your journey back to the entrance, where your guide and driver will be ready to provide a smooth transition. If time allows, your guide will take you to some popular local dining spots loved by residents. Savor traditional Beijing Zha Jiang Mian, known for its rich and savory taste, and try Douzhi, a distinctive local specialty. Your guide will help with ordering, introduce each dish, and make sure you enjoy an authentic and flavorful culinary experience.


The guid will remain attentive to any additional questions or needs you may have, continuing to provide insights into the Great Wall or other points of interest in Beijing. As you head back to Beijing Capital International Airport, your guide will reflect on the day's experiences with you, answering any lingering questions and ensuring your satisfaction with the tour. Rest assured, you will be delivered to the airport on time, making sure you have a smooth and stress-free departure.
I had a 10-hour layover in Beijing and wanted to make the most of it. This private round-trip tour to Badaling was exactly what I needed. The airport pickup was smooth and quick, and our driver got us to the Great Wall in no time. I was really impressed with how well-organized the tour was. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, providing us with just the right amount of information about the history and significance of the Great Wall. Although I only had a few hours, the experience was unforgettable, and I even had time for a short hike.

I had a long layover in Beijing, and rather than sitting at the airport, I decided to book a tour to the Badaling Great Wall. It was the best decision! From the moment I stepped off the plane, my guide was waiting for me at arrivals, holding a sign with my name. The car was comfortable, and the drive to Badaling was smooth—thanks to our skilled driver, I didn’t have to worry about the traffic in Beijing.
The Great Wall at Badaling is truly breathtaking, and I had just enough time to explore it. My guide was fantastic—she not only explained the history of the Wall but also made sure I had plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the views. Although I only had a few hours, the experience felt so much longer due to how well-organized everything was. It was a perfect way to break up my layover and see one of China’s most iconic landmarks.
