This private tour departs from your Beijing hotel in a private vehicle and takes you to walk the Jinshanling Great Wall around sunset. Jinshanling is a Ming dynasty section with fewer visitors than Mutianyu or Badaling, combining beautifully restored watchtowers with untouched original wall. With the English-speaking guide option, your guide adjusts the route and walking distance to your comfort level and shares stories about the history and architecture of the Great Wall. As the sun goes down, capture the mountains and the wall from the best sunset photo spots.

Depart from your hotel lobby
for the Jinshanling Great Wall
Meet your private guide or driver in your hotel lobby and travel to the Jinshanling Great Wall in an air-conditioned private vehicle. The drive is a little longer than to Mutianyu or Badaling, but you get to walk a much less crowded wall. On the way, chat with your guide about local culture and daily life, or simply relax and enjoy the countryside views.
Walk restored watchtowers and wild wall

You will spend about 2.5 hours at Jinshanling. It takes about 15 minutes to walk from the main entrance to the wall, and the best viewpoints are within 15 minutes on foot. Walk along beautifully restored watchtowers and original wild wall; with the guide option, your guide adjusts the route, time, and walking distance to your comfort and explains the history and architecture of this UNESCO-listed landmark.
Capture sunset photos on the wall

As golden hour approaches, your guide takes you to sunset photo spots with open mountain views. After your walk, head straight back to Beijing or stop at a local countryside restaurant for dinner before being dropped off at your hotel. Meals are not included.
※ The private driver option includes transportation only. The driver does not enter the site with you or provide commentary.
