Tour privé d'une journée de randonnée à Jinshanling Great Wall: Beijing

This day is devoted to the Jinshanling Great Wall. Pick-up at your hotel is at 6:30, as the drive takes some time. Jinshanling was built in the 14th century under the Ming Dynasty. About 15 kilometres long, it is one of the most authentic sections of the Wall and part of the UNESCO World Heritage site. The highlight is its watchtowers, above all the Big Jinshan Tower: climb its stone stairs to the small room where a soldier kept watch, touch the old bricks and take in the view. Your guide explains how the wall was built and the story of Qi Jiguang, the commander in charge of its construction, and of the soldiers from Zhejiang who named the towers after their home province. You spend several hours on the wall before driving back to your hotel, where you arrive at about 17:00. This is a private tour: only your group, with your own van, driver and guide. Price per person by group size: 1 person USD 355; 2 persons USD 207; 3–5 persons USD 176; 6–9 persons USD 137; 10 persons or more USD 111. The price shown is for a group of two; the final price follows your group size. Children 2 and under go free. Book at least 3 days in advance.
