Pretty much what we did. I went Beijing for the first time back in April with my gf and another couple. 2 out of the 4 of us can speak Mandarin which helps. We hired a private tour guide who came highly recommended through a friend for 3 days and it was hella dirt cheap per person, yes around $40 or so. We saw at least 3-4 sites each day, no rush no fuss. She even came on her own time without charging us a dime just to walk us around to do other sites and the driver even drove us to a bar to watch the Canucks game on his day off for free. The $100 is definitely cheap but for me I've always hated tours, being rushed, being in a big group etc. Usually it's the parents that love it because they don't want to be lost going around themselves, it's hassle free etc but not for me thanks.
