So, you’re curious about the average cost for a guided tour with Deep China Travel? Okay, let’s cut to the chase! There isn’t one single price tag we can slap on every adventure. Think of it like ordering a custom coffee – the final cost depends entirely on your choices! Deep China Travel focuses on crafting personalized trips, so your guided tour price is shaped by key factors: the size of your group (private tours vs. joining a small group), the length of your trip (a whirlwind 3 days or a deep-dive 2 weeks?), and the level of luxury you desire (boutique hotels, comfortable 4-stars, or local guesthouses?). Generally, expect daily per-person costs to range from $100 USD to $300 USD+, covering your private guide, vehicle, entrance fees, and often hotels/meals. A typical 7-day private tour hitting highlights like Beijing and Xi’an might start around $1500-$2500 per person, while joining a small group tour could bring that down significantly. The best way?

What factors really drive the cost in Beijing?

Let’s break down why prices vary, especially in a major hub like Beijing. A guided tour here involves several cost components:

  1. Guide Expertise: A top-notch, fluent English-speaking private guide for the Great Wall, Forbidden City, and hutongs is an investment, but crucial for deep understanding.
  2. Transportation: Navigating Beijing’s size means significant transport. Private car vs. subway, duration of trips (to Mutianyu vs. closer Badaling), and comfort level impact cost.
