Full description

A full-day trip out of Beijing taking in Train. The longest stop is Train, at about 2 hours.

山西港中之旅环球旅行社有限责任公司 runs it, and 6 things are covered by the price. It can be cancelled free of charge. Feel the thrill of riding a bullet train from Beijing to Datong.

The price covers hotel pick-up and drop-off within the 3rd Ring Road in Beijing, Bullet train tickets to and from Datong, English-speaking tour guide and Visit to Yanmen Pass Great Wall. It does not cover hotel pick-up and drop-off beyond the 3rd Ring Road in Beijing (additional 300 yuan) and Lunch: Chinese Kung Fu Knife-Cut Noodles (complimentary, no refund for non-consumption), so budget for those separately. Two travellers pay $1291 together rather than $767 each, because this is priced per party and not per head.
