  • Great Wall (Matianyu)) Trip with English speaking driver

    Jack the Driver was on time and very welcoming. He drove the 90 minute trip in his very comfortable MPV with good air con and provided water. On the way he provided some very interesting history of the Great Wall but not too much to overload. He offered a stop on the way for 30 minutes to a Jade factory where we were provided with a quick free tour and explanation of the craftsmanship. On arrival at Mutianyu Jack skipped the queues and shuttle bus and purchased all our tickets for the cable car up and chairlift down as well as suggesting the best route ( up at tower 14 on to tower 18 and then to tower 6 for the chair lift. Great service from Jack with good English and who looked after us well and I would fully recommend

    We have enjoyed a very peaceful and quite visit of the Great Wall with this private transfer. If you don’t like to many people, just chose the transfer as early as possible. The perfect organised pick-up at the hotel was at 6am and after arriving our very nice and helpful driver Peter hast organised a quick coffee. Plenty of time, we have been almost alone, what a feeling! Following he explained everything and gave us some suggestions. We followed his tips and it was a just great experience. Thanks Peter for making us the Great Wall visit experience even better!

  • Excellent Great Wall Experience Thanks to Peter

    Peter was an excellent driver and made our Great Wall experience smooth and stress-free from start to finish. He was on time, friendly, kind, and a very careful driver. Because of the rain, the Great Wall opened later than expected, but Peter quickly suggested a tea ceremony as an alternative while we waited, which ended up being a really special and memorable surprise. He explained everything we needed to do, helped make the process easy, suggested a great lunch spot, and even took us to some souvenir shops. We really appreciated how thoughtful, patient, and helpful he was throughout the day. Highly recommend!

  • Great day out!

    It was a great day out at the Chinese wall. David, our driver, was the best! Plus they were very accommodating with last minute changes and communication was perfect since we booked. They also provided a child’s car sit. Highly recommended.

    Peter our driver was wonderful. Drove us directly from our hotel in central Beijing to the Great Wall. Peter’s car was spotless and very roomy for me and my two friends. Water was also provided. He took us directly to the cable car to the top. Peter’s English was great. It took about 1.5 hours each way and we spent about 3 hours on the wall.

    Mr wu was an excellent driver who provided a great balance of being there for my questions / taking photos at the wall / pleasant conversation and also, giving me solo time to explore. Especially a great option as a solo female traveler. Super comfortable experience. He also pointed out little local specialities like fresh strawberries and cherries on the roadside and helped me purchase them

  • Great tour and guide!

    Our driver Shane and the whole experience was wonderful! Shane greeted us early at our hotel in central Beijing. His English is excellent and the car was very comfortable. It was about an hour and a half drive with almost no traffic. Definitely recommend starting early (we started at 6:00 a.m.) to avoid crowds...we got there right at opening time and there were hardly any other tourists there but it was getting busier as we exited. There are steep steps and hills with uneven surfaces - it is physically demanding in spots. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes. At the end we had a bit of extra time and we stopped to do a tea tasting. That was a nice experience as well. Overall a great 5 star tour and guide.

  • Mr. Wu was very lovely...

    Mr. Wu was very lovely and so helpful. He picked us up right on time, which I appreciated since we had selected a 6am pick up! When we got there, he got the tickets for us and showed us where to go. He gave us some useful tips and also took lots of photos for us! I would definitely recommend going as early as you can as it gets very busy further into the day. There were almost no other people when we arrived, but quite long queues when we were leaving. Going with Mr. Wu was also great as we could drive right to the entrance. Other companies went to a big parking lot and then you have to shuttle to the entrance. I didn’t know about this before but was very grateful this was included!

  • Great experience at the Great Wall!

    Sam was an excellent courteous driver. Clean smart car. Very good advice for pickup at 6.30 am as it meant we arrived before all the crowds. Be warned that the wall has lots of steps (some very steep!)
