Beijing Highlights two days Privat tour

Thank you very much for our lovely time and for help to discover China. Ours guide was brilliant, quick and full of knowledge. During two days we managed to see the best of Beijing, Great Wall, even visited the Market and watched Kung Fu. Colin is a good organiser- we were always in move- Colin knows exactly where we going next, how much time we needed for every place. A restaurants for lunch he was choosing very carefully- with good local food and if place was busy we changed the restaurant. His knowledge of history of China is unbelievably deep and he was sharing it with a pleasure. Thank you very much Colin and China Travel again for our beautiful holiday and discovery of China. With thanks Nadia & Miro Zajac.

Response from the operator: Thank you, Nadia and Miro, for your kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed your time in China and that Colin made your experience smooth, insightful, and memorable. It was a pleasure showing you the best of Beijing and beyond. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Amazing Tour Guide Susan!

We came for two days to Beijing from HK. We were a group of three girls and had Susan take us around for two days to see the Great Wall, Summer Palace, and Forbidden City and other sites. We had a great time and Susan was so helpful and kind. We loved her and would recommend her as a tour guide 100%! Amazing experience!

Response from the operator: Thank you for the lovely review! We're glad you had an amazing time in Beijing with Susan. She loved showing you around, and we truly appreciate your recommendation!

Highly recommended local guide in China

A wonderful trip with friends in the pas 2-days in Beijing with the local guide Susan, speaks good English and have a lot of knowledge for all the sites we’ve visited, also we managed to skip the queue to almost all of the sites where the average waiting time takes 2 hours or more, the transport provided was very comfortable and the restaurants she recommended was great as well, overall a very good experience and will definitely look for her again if we need local guide in China again. Thank you Susan!

Response from the operator: Thank you for your great feedback! We're glad Susan made your Beijing trip smooth, informative, and enjoyable. We look forward to helping you again on your next visit to China!

Old and New

Our visit to Beijing was to visit with old friends and see the major tourist attractions. Susan was a first class guide sharing her experience and knowledge of the major attractions in and around Beijing. Whilst it may have been four old friends meeting in Beijing we found a new one. Thank you Susan for creating new memories for us.

Response from the operator: Thank you for your heartfelt review! We're delighted Susan could make your Beijing visit memorable and that you found a new friend in her. Wishing you many more wonderful memories!

Such a great experience. Highly recommended!

We are so happy we decided to book this tour! Susan was such a kind person and a fantastic guide. We were picked up from the hotel and any time we were ready to move to the next location, the car was right there to pick us up. On top of how easy everything was, Susan is very knowledgeable about the area and helped us bypass long lines, get great photos, and learn a ton about the history of everywhere we went. She even helped us pick out great food when we were hungry. We are so thankful that we chose this tour as it truly made our adventure a great and memorable one.

Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted Susan made your tour smooth, informative, and memorable. We appreciate your kind words and hope to assist you again!

Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $54 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 Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour take?

+

Plan for about 8 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 Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 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 Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour?

+

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 Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour?

+

Around 4 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour 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.

What is included in Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour?

+

Included: Private New Tour Vehicle with Personal Driver Service; Professional and knowledgeable english-speaking local guide; All The Toll And Parking Fees, Local Taxes; and Private Hotel Pick-up and Send-off service. Not included: Gratuities; Personal expenses; Entrance Tickets Fees ( If Option Is Not Selected); and KungFu Show or Chinese-Style Massage (Optional). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

Does Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour include hotel pickup?

+

Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2813 listed pickup locations in and around Beijing. Be ready about 120 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

What languages is Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour offered in?

+

It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour?

+

Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

Is Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

+

The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; Specialized infant seats are available; and Transportation options are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

What happens to Beijing Highlights Two-Day Private Tour if the weather is bad?

+
