Itinerary
Your professional English-speaking guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel lobby between 7:00–8:00 AM. You will then travel in a comfortable vehicle to the Mutianyu Great Wall, with the journey taking approximately 1.5–2 hours. Upon arrival, you’ll appreciate the fewer crowds and enjoy the stunning natural scenery, as around 96% of this section is covered by lush forests and vegetation. You will have plenty of time to hike along the Wall, or you may choose to take the cable car up and down. For a fun and memorable experience, you can also take the Chairlift up and take exciting toboggan ride down. The lunch will be arranged at local food restaurant on the foot of the Great Wall. Since this is a small group tour, you will have more flexibility, such as more time for photo taking, or getting to know more history about the Great Wall. Your friendly tour guide is more than happy to assist you or answer related questions. You will be transferred back to your hotel in Beijing.

Traveler reviews
I will come back for more and recomend to friends and family
The guide and the weather made our visit super fantastic
Good organization, guide...
Good organization, very professional and friendly guide. A lot of people on Monday at the Great Wall. Too bad.
Mutianyu Private car service was excellent!
Our 1day private car service to Mutianyu Great Wall was very smoother than expected as our driver Mr Shu (許師父）was extremely helpful and knowledgeable during our 1.5 hr ride to Mutianyu Great Wall. He tirelessly pointed out landmarks and significant places/buildings to us relating its history. The car was clean and spacious and the ride was smooth. Mr Shu was early in picking us up from hotel and he patiently waited for us with admirable politeness and courtesy. When we arrived at Mutianyu, Mr Shu provided more than expected services by walking with us to entrance, to shops and restaurant for lunch. He helped us order our dishes and waited near by in case we needed anything. Incredible service ! Will definitely use Lily Tours again !!
Great Wall - Great Tour
Great Wall - great tour. Starting of with Tianmen square and the forbidden city. Our tour guide Jeffrey took good care of us, by navigating us through the masses at forbidden city, knowing all the short cuts and all the important information. After this our driver Xu took us safely to the Great Wall Mutianyu, including a stop for lunch (buffet style). Great Wall was stunning. Going up by chairlift and going down by toboggan was fun. The walk on the wall has some steep sections, but you will be rewarded with awesome views. So all in all a great tour, with Jeffrey and Xu making it as comfortable as possible for you. Thanks!!!
Great Wall tour and Forbidden City
Informative and well planned tour. The palace was crowded but she did a good job of helping us skip lines and tour efficiently.
