Before go on a Beijing travel, you need to know more about of Beijing.
While tipping is officially prohibited, the practice is changing as China’s hospitality industry becomes more and more service oriented. In fact, you help improve this industry by tipping individuals who genuinely provide excellent service, especially hotel personnel. As you will quickly discover, the service ethic is not widespread in China’s growing hospitality industry. One of the reasons for this is the lack of financial rewards. Many individuals just do their job without much sense of giving a service to customers, We encourage you to tip when you feel it is appropriate, but don't just routinely tip 10 or 15 percent like you might do back home. If you do, you will more often than not be sending the wrong message-poor service gets rewarded!
If you arrive on your own, you'll have no problem arranging local tours through a variety of China travel agents who offer a wide range of travel services. When in doubt about whom to contact, see your hotel concierge or the tour desk at your hotel. Unlike travel agents in many other countries that primarily book individuals and groups for prescheduled tours, local travel agents in China tend to be full-service operations that are very responsive to individual travel needs. For example, they can quickly arrange half-day to full-day tours, with or without groups. They also can arrange travel to other cities, including customized all-inclusive tours (includes guide, private car, transportation between cities, hotels, and all sightseeing). While you can do some travel on your own by hiring a taxi driver for a half or full-day, you will probably find it's more convenient, and perhaps less expensive in the long run, to go through a travel agency to hire a car and driver who speaks some English and understands the needs of tourists.
Among all the tours in Beijing, Beijing bus tour and Beijing vacation packages will be the most populars chosen by the travellers.
