Great experience at the great wall

We had not only a great trip to the Mutianyu part of the Wall but also got a lot of information about Beijing and China in general. Our guide Wendy was superb! Can highly recommend it!

Great Wall Mutianyu

Wendy was a great, energetic and enthusiastic guide. Very informative and even sang to us on the journey there. Despite the crowds the wall wasn’t too busy and we had a super time

Great experience.

The guide (Wendy) was great, preliminary communication regarding the meeting place and check-ups on the morning to make sure everyone was set to make the journey. On the trip she provided energy and atmosphere, sharing some local knowledge about Beijing and the Great Wall, and handled all logistics smoothly, allowing us all some free time at the end before jumping on the bus back to the city. Overall, great value for money, with admission, chairlift/toboggan included.
