Great experience!

Great experience! Despite the trying side of this part of the great wall (steep slope), we had a great time. We did it in the rain and it had advantages (we didn’t ride in the heat and we were alone!) but also a disadvantage (after 1 hour of walking, we had to turn around because they Locked the access for bad weather). Our Guide had warned us and was accessible all along and was even ready to change our date tickets. I highly recommend!
Wonderful private tour to the Great Wall and more

We had a wonderful time at this private tour and can recommend it highly. The visit to the Great Wall was impressive. Our guide Terry was very knowledgeable and professional. The schedule was flexible to allow for an early lunch after climbing the Wall. We enjoyed the extras like stopping at a roadside fruit stand to buy fresh local peaches. It was an excellent experience.
A fantastic day on the Great Wall with Terry!
