What To Expect
Mutianyu Great Wall
You will be driven to the Mutianyu Section of Great Wall early to avoid the traffic and lines(queues). This section of Great Wall is the most beatiful secion around Beijing city. You can choose to have the lunch before or after you enjoy the Wall. With our vip pass, we can drive directly to the Great Wall without changing shuttle bus which avoid lots of trouble and wasting of time, and then you can enjoy a 2 hours hiking on the Wall. You can choose to take the ski - lift up and toboggan sliding down to get on and off the Great Wall, it is highly recommended, so that you won't need to climb 30mins steps on the hill before reaching the actual Great Wall. And when you come down from the wall, you can choose to do the toboggan sliding down the hill, which is the best way to finish your exciting Great Wall trip.

5.00Had a fabulous time, the tour was almost private and we had the great wall all to ourselves We beat the crowds, lunch and a tea ceremony were included, we ended up at the summer palace. The best tour to the great wall if you want to skip the crowds. Keith was extremely knowledgeable and friendly

5.00The perfect small group day tour! I don’t do many tours as a solo female traveler, but this one was so worth it. Super convenient and got a lot out of the experience, and also loved how you get time to explore on your own on the wall. We were basically the only ones up there when we arrived, which really added to the experience. The summer palace was also a big highlight of my China trip, just beautiful. Highly recommend!
Excellent guide, very...

5.00Keith was a great guide. Great access, small group, personal. Two hours after leaving a quiet and memorable Great Wall Tour with Kieth, thousands and thousands lined up on cheaper tours for a terrible experience. My tour was thr best...Great pictures. Few crowds. Summer Palace is always crowded, but we had fast access.
Highly recommended - great experience.

5.00Fantastic experience. Keith our driver got us there early and we missed all the crowds. Loved the gondola ride and toboggan down. The wall was amazing and Keith had organised a fantastic lunch for us as well. Then he guided us around the Summer Palace. He was an excellent guide.
Great day with guide Keith
