Beijing Tour – FAQ (Questions & Answers)

 

Best time to visit Beijing?
The best time to visit Beijing is spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) when temperatures are mild, skies are clearer, and sightseeing conditions are perfect.

How many days do I need?
A 3–5 day itinerary is ideal to see the Great Wall, Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, and Beijing’s main cultural sites without rushing.

Is Beijing safe?
Beijing is considered one of the safest major cities in Asia, with low crime rates and well-patrolled tourist areas.

Top must-see places?
The best places to visit in Beijing include the Great Wall of China, Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace, and the historic hutong neighborhoods.

Do I need a visa or passport?
Most travelers require a Chinese tourist visa. However, many nationalities are eligible for Beijing’s 144-hour visa-free transit when connecting to a third country.

For all participants, we require the following information at the time of booking: passport name, number, expiration date, and country of issue.
A valid passport must be presented on the day of travel.

Can I visit during a layover?
Yes—if you qualify for the 144-hour visa-free layover, you can explore Beijing’s major attractions, including the Great Wall.

Best Great Wall section?
Mutianyu is best for families and fewer crowds, while Badaling is the most famous and easiest to access. Jinshanling is ideal for scenic hiking.

Do I need a guide?
A guide isn’t required but provides historical context, local insights, and faster navigation, making your Great Wall visit more meaningful.

How long is the trip from Beijing?
Most Great Wall sections are 3 hours from central Beijing, depending on traffic and the section you choose.

Best way from airport to city?
The Airport Express Train is fast and affordable, while taxis and private transfers offer the most convenience for first-time visitors.

Is the subway good?
Beijing’s subway is clean, efficient, and budget-friendly, making it one of the best ways to move around the city.

How to reach the Great Wall?
You can reach the Great Wall via private car, tour bus, or hotel pickup tours, which save time and avoid transfers.

Best area to stay?
Stay near Wangfujing, Tiananmen, or the Forbidden City for easy access to top attractions, food, and shopping.

Are hutong hotels good?
Yes—hutong hotels offer a traditional courtyard-style experience and a taste of old Beijing culture.

Must-try foods?
Don’t miss Peking Duck, Beijing-style dumplings, and authentic hotpot. Try local snacks in hutong streets or markets.

Is street food safe?
Beijing street food is generally safe—choose busy stalls where food is cooked fresh and served hot.

What’s the weather like?
Beijing has hot summers, cold winters, and pleasant spring/autumn seasons—perfect for outdoor sightseeing.

What should I pack?
Bring comfortable walking shoes, sun protection, and seasonal layers—especially if visiting historical sites or the Great Wall.

Where is the departure point?
We will pick you up from your centrally located hotel or residence in Beijing.

Tour prices?

Do you offer airport pick-ups?
Yes—we provide 24/7 airport pick-up and drop-off services for both layover and full-day Beijing tours.
