The whole experience was incredible. Tony, our driver, picked us up on time. Our drive to the Great Wall was smooth and he spoke great English. When we arrived, the entrance was quick. Tony gave us history of the wall and allowed us to take our time. Tony was incredibly kind and had a great personality. I would highly recommend this trip and ask for Tony!

We were a family of five traveling together, including my mother, who is a senior and has difficulty walking, and my 8-year-old daughter. Our tour guide, Wendy, was absolutely amazing! She was very accommodating and thoughtful, adjusting our plans to suit my mom’s pace and needs without making us feel rushed. Wendy walked alongside my mother, patiently assisting her with every step, helping her with toilet stops and making sure she was comfortable throughout the tour. She also made sure my daughter was engaged and enjoying herself. Thanks to Wendy’s care and flexibility, what could have been a challenging trip turned into a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable experience for our whole family. We also had a wonderful lunch as part of the tour, the food and atmosphere were perfect. Overall, the trip was easy, relaxing, and unforgettable because of Wendy’s professionalism and kindness. Highly recommend her to anyone, especially families traveling with seniors or young children!

We’re so glad we booked this Great Wall Private tour! It’s so worth it!! We were picked up at our hotel lobby on time by our tour guide, Linda. She was very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to. She gave us a lot of information about the Great wall and answered all of our questions. She offered a lot of great suggestions & recommendations and even helped us with our shopping needs. Our tour went smoothly and was not rushed at all. She gave us a lot of time to take pictures and even took some of our pictures for us. She was very patient and really took good care of us. I love that she went ahead to go in line for us since there was a long queue for the toboggan. She is the best tour guide we have ever had! I would definitely recommend her and this tour to all our family and friends. Also, the car was very clean and modern and the driver was very professional and drove us safely to our destinations. Bottled water was always provided so we didn’t have to buy any during the tour. Thank you Linda we really had an amazing time!!

This was the highlight of our China trip. Great Wall of China is truly "Great" and taking a private tour is the best way to visit it. The Mutianyu Great Wall is very well restored and we enjoyed the tour throughly. Our guide Rita was very nice, she didn't rush through the tour and allowed us to travel at our own pace. Highly recommend this tour

Nice car and helpful driver. Be ready to walk uphill for a bit. Great experience. Would recommend leaving Beijing closer to 7 AM especially in hot weather.
