Detailed Itinerary
The journey, in full
Your private guide and driver will greet you at your 4th Ring Road hotel in the morning to start your full-day tour. The 2-hour scenic drive to Longqing Gorge boasts lovely views, with photo stops available at your request anytime. Hailed as a more enchanting "mini Li River", Longqing Gorge fuses South China’s grace with North China’s grandeur, where you can admire winding gorges, clear green waters, steep cliffs, dense forests and unique stalagmite-adorned karst caves. Accompanied by your English-speaking guide, you’ll take the mountain-embedded dragon elevator (258m long, 90m ascent) to Longqing Dam for a one-of-a-kind ride. After descending, we’ll arrange a complimentary river cruise for you to enjoy forest-cloaked cliffs and whimsical limestone formations shaped by time. Thrill-seekers can opt for optional paid activities like kayaking, rock climbing, horseback riding or go-karting. Next, take a cable car uphill to the Ming Dynasty Immortal Taoist Temple, home to a 300-year-old pine tree that has witnessed centuries of history. After exploring the gorge, savor a local late lunch before heading back to Beijing, where your guide and driver will drop you at your hotel to conclude this wonderful day trip.
