5.00Private bus tour with Jack, very nice, tells you a little about the history of the wall. We have gone up in a chairlift and down in a slide, the last best.

5.00It is the perfect tour for a long stopover in Beijing, we take 100% of the time visiting the square, the forbidden city and the great Chinese wall. Our guide Mr. Guo is excellent, welcomed us, accompanied and explained super well at all times, we congratulate him and thank him for his excellent attention.

5.00Hi. We had a fantastic day, our driver was amazing! Kind, great sense of humour. Loved the bananas and plenty of water. Sorted our tickets, Took us through and up to the top of the wall, took photos and then left us to explore. Clear on times and information. Helped with ordering lunch, guided us round Tianenmen square, took is into the Forbidden city past all the queues and showed us the map and where to meet. Always at meeting place before us, really felt looked after

5.00We had an amazing trip with our driver Mr Guo. He greeted us on time in our hotel lobby with fresh water and bananas. We drove straight to the wall and were one of the first ones up (pick up: 6:30am). He showed us around and drove us to the square, walked with us along to give us more information about the buildings and in general made our trip perfect! Thank you so much for the great day and we would definitely recommend a tour with our driver Mr Guo

5.00What a eye opening trip. My business partner and I enjoyed visiting the Great Wall as our driver services was more than impeccable.our driver Jack was well versed about how to navigate and get the best out the experience. Not only was Jack able to make the language barrier easy by giving us information about the Great Wall in English but he was a patient guide going beyond his call of duty. We thoroughly enjoyed stopping along the small towns where we received an authentic experience and interacting with local retail stores including many photo opportunities. I strongly recommend Jenny’s Guide and Driver service if you want to avoid the difficult public bus services. One of the easiest and most enjoyable experiences. Thanks Jack🍾👌🏽

5.00I can highly recommend this service for Great Wall tour. I booked with Jenny and I got driver in 30 minutes waiting for me in hotel lobby. Car is nice and new with a/c and driver takes you all the way to the cable, so you dont have to take shuttle bus and makes you cut all lines for waiting. Driver speaks english, so it is easy to comunicate and you can comfortly enjoy your trip to Great Wall without worry.
