Self-Launched Classic Beijing Mini Adventure

A 3-day independent version of G Adventures' Classic Beijing Mini Adventure. Hit all the Beijing hotspots — Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, the hutongs, and the Mutianyu Great Wall — using the Beijing metro, public buses and shared tourist shuttles instead of a private vehicle and CEO. You stay in a well-located central hostel or budget hotel, book skip-the-line tickets and a Great Wall shuttle yourself, and free-time add-ons like the Drum & Bell Tower and a Kung Fu show are entirely your call. Same sights, same bragging rights, a fraction of the group tour price.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Beijing, China yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn a completely impractical skill from a local — fire spinning, competitive coconut opening, whatever — and become weirdly good at it."
