Shilingxia Scenic Area
The stone forest valley is 6 kilometers long with its main peak looking like trees put together, hence the name stone forest for the scenic area. The stone forest gorge area has dense plantations and fresh air, a good place to walk close to the greatness of the nature. You will be arranged to take cable car up to the place high on the mountain from which you still scramble up for about 20 minutes before you reach the world's largest glass sightseeing platform. The Glass Sightseeing Platform is hung out from the cliff on the highest peak inside Stone Forest Gorge (Shilinxia Scenic Area), 11 meters longer than the Grand Canyon Skywalk inside the Grand Canyon National Park in the United States.

Useful and fun!
We went to Beijing because of our stopover there during our trip from Australia to Spain. We decided to contract their services because we wanted to do tourism but we didn't feel ready to visit Beijing for our own. We went with Christy and her service was awesome. We were able to modify the plan without problems since we contracted to visit the Forbidden City in the morning and the Great Wall in the afternoon, but we changed it. We had time for us to walk through the Great Wall, and Christy took a lot of photos for us. Moreover, she explained with detail the history of both places and she did it interestingly and she also answered a lot of questions that we did about China and these places. We are very happy with this service and also with both Christy and the driver. Thanks for all your help, without you we definitely couldn't visit these places!!

An Amazing and Personalized Warm Experience!
I booked a private full day tour to visit the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs through this company and my finance and I had such a great time. The entire booking process was very easy and transparent. Our tour guide Christy and the driver were on-time to pick us up from our hotel and flexible with our time visiting each site. Christy was very warm to us and did a great job giving us good insights for each place we visited. Visiting the Great Wall during the off-peak season made this experience much more enjoyable as your can actually take your time to take in all of the scenery around you as well as pose for photos with others. We also stopped for lunch nearby and had plenty of time to enjoy our lunch at the local painted porcelain factory (it was very neat to see how this process actually occurs). For anyone traveling to Beijing and wants a unique experience with exploring the Great Wall I would highly recommend that you book through this company. Thanks again Christy for the wonderful experiences! - Joe and Fergie!

Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform cost?
+
Prices start at $255 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 Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform 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 Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform?
+
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 Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform 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 Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform?
+
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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Tour to Jingdong Karst Cave including Shilinxia Glass Platform 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.
