          Perfect Layover Experience: Mutianyu Great Wall Tour with Maggie and Mr. Yang
          I had an amazing experience with Maggie (Honggli) and Mr. Yang during my Airport Layover Great Wall Mutian Yu Trip. Maggie was such a fantastic guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and so easy to talk to. She explained the history of the Great Wall in a way that made it really interesting and memorable. I also appreciated how she was so thoughtful and made sure everything ran smoothly. Mr. Yang was a great driver—super professional and made the ride comfortable and relaxing. The car was clean and well-maintained, which made the journey even better. This tour was the perfect way to spend my layover in Beijing. Everything was planned perfectly, and I didn’t feel rushed at all. I highly recommend this trip to any foreign visitor who has a layover and wants to experience the Great Wall without any stress. Huge thanks to Maggie and Mr. Yang for making my day so enjoyable!

          Great visit of the Forbidden City
          Had an amazing time visiting the forbidden city with Linda Li. She was really knowledgeable. It's worth it because there's a lot of history and small details that can be missed easily.

          Highly engaging and insightful
          Really enjoyable tour. Appreciated the balance of history and the (sadly) limited time we had available. Excellent English spoken, as well as Putinghua (for my daughter). Highly recommended

          Mutianyu Great Wall Adventure
          I An absolutely wonderful experience on this day tour - My tour guide Jerry can to pick me up from my hotel in Beijing with a private driver and we went straight to Tiananmen Square where Jerry and I walked me through security with VIP treatment and then continued through the square with Jerry providing excellent information on each building and allowing me to ask questions and take pictures along the way. Next we crossed to the Forbidden City where we once again received VIP access and continued the tour all through the Forbidden City with very informative and interesting commentary from Jerry for approximately 2 hours - this is a massive city and you could just tour the square or the city but I only had one day to spend in Beijing so I opted for the shorter tour. Next we traveled to Mutianyu about 2 hours from the Forbidden City, stopping along the way at a wonderful Jade shop where we had a delicious lunch and then continued through Mutianyu to the shuttle stop for the Great Wall. Jerry took care of everything and I received first class treatment the entire time. We took the shuttle to the chair lift which takes you to the top of the wall, and I hiked on the wall for an hour before returning by toboggan back to the shuttle stop. I went to a Tea Shop where they performed a traditional tea service and there was lots of opportunity to shop for souvenirs before I was returned to my hotel in the late afternoon. It was a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend it.

          If you want to visit Beijing I recomend to take the best guide possible that will make your life easier while there.

He knows all the best spots that will impress you and that will take visiting Beijing on another level. There are no words to describe how much I recomend this private guide. 🏮🏮🏮 He is the best ever!🪭

          Awesome Experience & Exposure To Chinese Culture
          I had an awesome experience on the Great Wall tour with Maggie! She was incredibly knowledgeable about Chinese culture, making the entire experience both educational and engaging. The tour was very well coordinated, and communication was seamless throughout. Maggie's insights and professionalism truly enhanced the trip. The driver also did a fantastic job, driving smoothly and safely. It's definitely well worth the money – I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience!
