FROM $99 per person
Prices vary depending on group size, hotel standards, and how you'd like to tailor your itinerary.
We pick you up from your central Beijing hotel in early afternoon, driving around 2 hours to reach the entrance of Simatai Great Wall directly. Your guide will share the frontier military history of Simatai Great Wall and introduce night tour route arrangements on the highway.
Arrive at the scenic spot before dusk, complete ticket checking and take the exclusive round-trip cable car uphill to the night sightseeing zone within 10 minutes. Walk along the softly lit ramparts to No.5 Watchtower, the core viewpoint with wide mountain views. Wander gently to No.6 and No.7 Watchtower to admire the winding golden light strips stretching across ridges. Clear evenings bring bright star skies above the glowing wall silhouette. The wall exploration lasts roughly 1–1.5 hours, with enough spare time for landscape and portrait photography.
After finishing the night wall tour, take the cable car back down to the parking lot directly. Our private vehicle drives you back to downtown Beijing, finishing this compact and wonderful half-day night Great Wall journey.

Much more fun than I expected
Thanks, Eamon! We love hearing that the tour surprised you in the best way. The driverless taxi can feel a little odd at first, but once you settle in, it's a pretty memorable experience. Glad you both had fun exploring Shenzhen's tech side!
The trains made the route surprisingly easy
Thanks, Marlowe! Glad to hear our train journeys turned out to be easier than expected. Those big stations can definitely feel a bit overwhelming at first, so it's great to hear that having our driver there made things smoother. Hope you enjoyed the rest of the trip!
A Photographer's Kind of Day
Thanks, Soren! We're delighted that the architectural side of Qingdao caught your eye. The city has so many small details that are easy to miss when you're in a hurry.
