Beijing Great Wall layover - plan, tips, cost - 2019
Layovers could be boring or exciting adventures.
This is our experience in Beijing on 11 May’19. We had wonderful and incredible 5 hours seeing one of the new 7 Wonders of the World. We highly recommend it!
The good think of getting private driver/guide is that you don't book and pre-pay online! You can pay cash at the end.
Thanks to our private guide everything went smooth, calm and on time. Joe is really nice, friendly and knowledgeable person. His English is very good and easy to communicate to. Really, he's great! That’s how you can find him if you choose that option:

I hope you’ll find that helpful. Have a GREAT wallover ;)

Beijing airport (PEK): International arrival at the Terminal 3
Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) is the main international airport serving Beijing. Beijing Capital added Terminal 3 in 2008 in time for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, the second largest airport terminal in the world. It is also the second busiest airport in the world.
This video shows the arrival process at terminal 3. It also shows the resources than are available in the arrival area.
We also show the three transportation options to reach the city center: (1) the Airport Express which connects to the subway network; (2) buses that can take you to various places in the city (cheapest option); or (3) taxis.
The Airport Express operates from 06h21 to 22h51. The fare is 25RMB, payable in cash. You can also pay using the transportation card (Yikatong). The card can be purchased at the ticket counter of the Airport Express. Here is a map of the Beijing subway:
You can also watch our video on how to use the Beijing subway:
There are many buses that can take you to various places in Beijing. This is the most economical mode of transportation. The list of bus lines as well as their stops, fares and schedules can be found on the official airport website:
Taxis are the simplest way to reach your destination in Beijing. The fare to the center of the city is about 90 to 125RMB. Taxi drivers do not speak English. You need the name of your hotel as well as the address in writing in Chinese. This can usually be found on the hotel website. Taxis in Beijing use the meter. If your driver proposes a fixed rate, get out and take another taxi. In addition to the amount shown on the meter, you may have to pay the toll. Minivans are also available for larger families.

Transit At Beijing Airport
If you have long lay over hours at Beijing Capital International Airport, there's many fascilities you can use. Terminal 3 building where international flight passengers transit is so broad. Toilet, shower, reclining seats are there. You can drink water for free, shops, eat, or just enjoy the public spaces in the airport.
Or if you have more waiting hours like us (we had 11 hours), aplly for 24 hours or even 72 hours (for some citizens in the world) China free visa. Just come to the immigration area, ask the officer the free visa.
After getting the visa, take a sky train to another terminal to board on airport express who bring you to Dongzhimen. From Dongzhimen, you can change to metro to the centre of Beijing (Tiananmen Square, Old City, etc).

Beijing Capitol Airport Transfer + Layover + FREE Transit Lounge 北京首都国际机场: 10小时国际接送 + 每小时休息室
Air China not only offered a very low round trip fare from USA to Pakistan, they even provided a FREE transit / hourly lounge during our day long, 10 hour layover in Beijing Capitol Airport PEK. Although it is not overly luxurious, such a free and luxurious amenity is not common for economy class travellers, especially for passengers who booked such cheap tickets.
This video covers my experience in the hectic transit security checkpoint at Beijing Capitol Airport, the search for the lounge (it was by gate E10 at terminal 3E,) and the procedure to reserve a spot in the lounge (by calling the Air China phone number)
NOTE: Air China provides this service for eligible international transfer passengers, the full terms and conditions is on their website.
The Mandarin Chinese captions are to help translate the information on major amenities of the lounge, and are not intended to be a word-for-word translation of the entire video.
中文字幕旨在帮助翻译休息室主要设施上的信息。它不打算是整个视频的详细翻译。
I hope you enjoy the review of the Beijing Airport Terminal 3E Hourly transit lounge!
Review: My AIR CHINA DISASTER - How I was DETAINED & REFUSED into CHINA
I recently flew from Seoul to Beijing on Air China and despite having a Transit Visa I was refused entry into China and kept there for almost 24 hours. Immigration Laws had change overnight and I was the World's very first victim of this new rule. They didn't treat me too nice and I was able to record most of it, in order to help you not to get into the same troubles... you better avoid Air China.

Layover Beijing 北京 (01/2017) | Tiananmen | Forbidden City | Hutongs | Temple of Heaven
Lily is a wonderful and terrific guide. Filled with knowledge she made my visit in Beijing rich in historic lore and facts with cultural references, and flexible and responsive to individual questions and requests. I've learned so much about Chinas capita, with its 21 million inhabitants, and enjoyed every minute!
The Tien’anmen square is possibly the largest and most famous square of the world. The former imperial palace, surrounded by wall was called ‘the forbidden city’ because a commoner could not enter here. At least that beautiful is the Temple of Heaven, where pieces from the ancient artist await the visitors.
Highlights include: Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City Imperial Palace, Beijing Temple of Heaven, Hutongs, Tea House
Beijing is absolutely worth a visit!
