Mutianyu Great Wall

Tour starts at 8:30 am, the tour guide will meet you at your centrally located Beijing downtown hotel lobby, enjoy comfortable transfer to your first stop. It takes around 1.5 hours driving to the Mutianyu Great Wall - one of the best-preserved and best-known sections. On the way, you are able to stop and take photos of the "Bird's Nest"– National Stadium if time permits. Upon arrival at the Mutianyu Great Wall, hike up on foot and walk along the wall, explore the tensely distributed Watchtowers, enjoy the break-taking natural scenery. The northward route between No. 14 and No. 23 watchtower has the most beautiful scenery, while the southward route contains the grand Zhengguan Terrace and Big Corner Tower. To get down the Great Wall, you can walk step by step or take Toboggan slide down at your own expense.

    I booked this private tour through Viator for $419.20 (for two people), expecting a premium experience similar to other private tours. I had visited the Great Wall the day before and requested a replacement itinerary. Unfortunately, the replacement attractions were not up to the mark and felt like fillers rather than meaningful alternatives. The biggest disappointment was the vehicle and driver. Instead of a high-end or comfortable car as typically provided in such private tours, we were given a cramped small saloon that barely fit us both. The driver was unprofessional — visibly annoyed, spoke loudly the entire time, parked far from entrances, and made no effort to assist us. While the tour guide was informative, she became defensive when I brought up the driver’s behavior and ended the conversation by telling me to complain to my agent — a completely unhelpful response. Overall, this experience fell far below expectations. For such a premium price, I expected a smooth, enjoyable day — not stress, discomfort, and subpar replacements. Disappointing.
