We first contacted GWAC about 2 months prior to our visit. We booked tour 1B, a half day hike from Jiankou to Mutianyu. Lucy replied to all of our emails promptly and arranged for Connie to be our guide as we requested. Lucy also advised us to contact Connie via cell phone when we arrived in Beijing just to confirm...

We were a little concerned when it came to booking a guide over the internet (particularly with so few solid reviews in English), but we were pleasantly surprised by the experience. We submitted a request online four days before we wanted to go on the hike. The responses were prompt, and we were able to arrange the tour within a... More

I recently took two trips to China. Shanghai in September of '2010 and Beijing in May of 2011. While researching services in China I came across this company and it looked interesting. When the travel service in my hometown messed up all the arrangements for a trip to the World Expo in Shanghai, this company had many helpful suggestions to... More

The Great Wall Adventure Club was great, handling our hotel reservations and arranging our guides to meet us at the airport. The guides that helped us in Beijing and Xi'an were friendly, knowledgable and made every effort to help us have a wonderful visit. We especially enjoyed the hiking on the Great Wall, which is the reason why we chose... More

This company offers very intimate mini-van service so each tour won't have more than 10 people. There is a separate drive and tour guide for... More

We recently visited Beijing and, after a lot of research on the Internet, decided to book a two-day tour with Great Wall Adventure Club. I couldn't have been more pleased with my decision. This organization is extremely professional and dependable. Our guide was Connie, who was wonderful. I have two kids (12 & 8) and both grew really attached to... More

My daughter and I called The Great Wall Adventure Club to schedule a driver to take us to the Mutianyu section of the wall in order to avoid the crowds of Badaling. They threw in a English speaking guide as well and we were thrilled. After a delightful day with a great guide, we found out that the person who... More

I did the hike between Jinshanling and Simatai in early December and it was a great experience. It was a very cold day but it was not raining or snowing. If given the chance, I would probably do the hike again. However, I will not choose the same tour guide. I chose this group base on one review I found... More
