    Amazing tour guide

    Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Cathy and with a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start! The guide and tour was extremely good, very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that she deserves a special thanks. We had 4 great days there, which obviously also added up to the experience. She took care of everything from food, accommodations, sightseeing tickets. She explained us the importance of each place with such enthusiasm. Cathy is such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (recommendable!). All respect for Cathy who does a great job there; a true sample of excellent tour guide!

    10/10 Perfect experience. Perfect english. Perfect service

    Before you read my long story about my trip, here is the conclusion: If you are not able to speak mandarin, you must to arrange a tour, and Marcopolo (Kathy) is the perfect choice. 10/10 recommend her to everyone I know looking for Beijing trip. So.. here is the long story about my trip: This is my first visit to China for business purposes. I spend almost 1.5 weeks for business trip and during the business trip there were always someone who assist me to translate or buy something for me. Then I decided to extend my stay to see great wall of China, alone. I’m a seasoned solo traveller and now my way up using google/google maps. But oh boy, China is different: I cannot find taxi without app; Didi apps that you download outside China doesnt work, and no one can speak english. Walking is the only way for me to go place to place. So, if you want to do it by yourself without help, good luck and make sure you are able to walk far. I decided to go to this tour - Marco Polo to arrange private 2 days beijing and great wall trip. I want to enjoy the site with my own pace (walk with slower pace) and wake up anytime I want without need to think about other person. Kathy (marco polo) do beyond my expectations. 1. She call my hotel before my arrival to make sure that I know that she will waiting in the lobby in the morning, including setting up the remind call in the morning. Amazing, never had this kind of service before. 2. Excellent english! This is a must have to mentioned. During my business trip, my business partners arrange some trips in other city. The travel guide at that time only able to read a book in english, but you cannot speak in conv.level. Kathy have excellent english, you can talk with her about anything! Such a relieve to have her in my trip. FYI, she mentioned she also often arrange a tour trip to EU and other english speaking countries. No wonder she have good english. 3. Her knowledge about the city is impressive. To put in a simple wording, she know everything. The most interesting fact for me: the picture of Chairman Mao is being replaced every year and its weighted more than 1 ton. 4. Excellent arrangement: Minimum unnecessary walk. She ask the driver to drop me in the front gate, and pick up us in the other exit gate. Just wait 1 min, and voila the car is there. A lot of people need to transfer using bus, but not for us. She making sure our car able to pass through security and drop us in front of the gate. She also arrange a brand new car for us, very comfortable car and nice driver. 5. She arrange limited walk for me, just because I’m lazy to walk or climb stairs. She choose the most efficient walking route for me. Love her for this. 6. Perfect timing: every site the timing feels spot on, not too long not to fast. You got what you need. 7. Others: she help me to arrange a pick up car for morning airport transfer and advise me to go to the nice massage place near my hotel. She also give me a jade turtle, which mean wishing me for a long live. So thoughtful! By the power bestowed to me from trip advisor, I give her 10/10 rating. Surely will connect to her again if I need another Beijing tour. Best, Fahmi

    2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.

    How much does 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall cost?

    +

    Prices start at $40 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beijing is not rushed.

    Is 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beijing can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2 days Beijing Private Tour Forbidden City and Great Wall start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beijing within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Beijing?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Temple Heaven, Lama Temple, Summer Palace & Peking Duck Bus Tour, Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Sightseeing Full-day Group Tours, Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Beijing?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Beijing?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
