Fantastic Tour with Jessica! We had an amazing experience with our tour guide, Jessica! She picked us up right from our hotel and came fully prepared with plenty of snacks for the trip. Jessica took care of all the logistics—purchasing and coordinating our tickets—so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. She gave us great recommendations about which sections of the Great Wall to visit, making sure we got the best views and experience without the big crowds. Along the way, she shared fascinating stories and history, not just about the Great Wall but also about Beijing and Chinese culture in general. Jessica was friendly, fun, and incredibly knowledgeable. She made the whole day smooth, engaging, and memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—highly recommend her to anyone visiting Beijing!

Wendy picked us up from our hotel right on time and we started the drive to the Great Wall. On the drive there she shared history and information about Beijing that was so helpful and we are already looking forward to coming back someday to use her sightseeing tips. If I could do this again I would have booked this tour for our first day in Beijing, because she told us about other sites we can see in the city. When we got to the wall she shared more information and history as we got to the tower. She took the best pictures to capture the beautiful views and memories of visiting this incredible landmark. If I am ever in Beijing I will be booking another tour with Wendy. Not only is she knowledgeable but she was friendly, gave us food recommendations, and showed us the best places to get souvenirs. This tour is worth every penny and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Beijing.

First of all, the views we got were beautiful and the further you go the more unique sights you can see. The wall was 100% worth the visit and the time/money spent to see. Wendy was a pivotal member of the tour as well. Having a guide that speaks fluent English and is so knowledgeable and friendly was very helpful and delighting to have her along our journey. I would recommend her to anyone who is traveling this way with hopes to visit the Great Wall of china. She and her team were early to pick us up and understanding of the pace we walked at and helped up take photos along the way as well as put a slideshow together for us without asking which was an added bonus.

We had a wonderful day at the Great Wall. Lily shared so much information about the history of the wall that even though I've been there before I learned something new. It was the first time for my friend and she was thrilled to actually climb the Great Wall. Thank you, Lily for a great day.

We had a wonderful experience visiting the Great Wall with Maggie. She looked after us at every moment and made the day feel effortless and enjoyable. We also learned so much from her—she truly brought the history of the Great Wall to life. Highly recommended!

Traveled with family including two granddaughters. Jun arranged an early pick up as we were traveling during Golden week. He and our driver made the tour very enjoyable. Jun spoke English very well, he was informative and helpful.

We had a great time! Our guide Bobo and a driver picked us up from our hotel and drove us to the Mutianyu. There Bobo went up the wall with us, showed us around but also gave us space to explore ourselves. The whole trip was filled with very interesting stories, histories and fascinating facts, provided by Bobo. The communication was very clear and the trip very well organised, we couldn’t have wished for a nicer experience!

Excellent Great Wall of china trip, Lucy picked us up from the airport and waited for us as we were longer than expected coming through border control. She was there ready for us when we finally got through. We then headed to our huge coach we had just for our party and our luggage. During the journey Lucy went through all the history of the Great Wall and Beijing itself which was very interesting. We arrived at the Great Wall of china and had a spot of lunch. Then made our way up on the cable cars . The view and the wall were magical. It’s a day we won’t forget we had ample time on the wall to walk and discover it and tobbagoned back down to the bottom at sunset. Lucy and the driver dropped us to our hotel the whole trip was lovely and Lucy was a fabulous tour guide. They also have sorted a private tour around Beijing and also a transfer to and from universal studios. Would not hesitate to book again or recommend them to anyone 😊
