          Great day trip with Hotel pick-up.
          Davis was an excellent tour guide and ensured we made it to the Great Wall early to beat the crowds. He explained to us which route to take when walking the wall. Very patient driver who spoke great English. He was on time and also very accommodating. Thank you for changing our dates last minute due to a delayed flight. P.S. You can skip the Ming Tombs. It was a little waste of time to see nothing as many of the artifacts and tombs have been “recreated”.

          Excellent trip with Linda
          Excellent trip with Linda who picked us up in her large vehicle and took us to the Great Wall. Everything was very well organised and Linda was very helpful and gave us some great tips on seeing other sights. Was our first trip to China and this was the highlight- the jade factory and silk factory visit were fantastic.

          Book this tour to explore Great Wall!
          Booked this tour with Linda as wanted freedom to explore Great Wall early. Driver was Nicholas who spoke English and very friendly and helpful. Pick up at 630am and arrived at Mutiyani Great Wall and walked all the way to tower 20 with hardly any crowds, only on our return back. Went chair lift up and tabboggan down and was so much fun. Driver Nicholas took us to Summer Palace and help organise tickets for both summer palace and Great Wall and made sure we got into both with ease. Thank you Nicholas and highly recommend!

          Great Wall and Tombs - July 2024
          Touring with Linda was fantastic. Driver arrived right to our hotel and transportation was comfortable. The van was cool and had water, which was a great break from the heat. Linda as a guide was knowledgeable and friendly. She engaged with both our kids and us parents on the history of the area and the Great Wall. If you are considering a tour, which made getting to the Wall, the Tombs, and back a breeze - go with Linda as your guide

          Excellent Driver Service
          Driver Nicholas was excellent, on time and very professional. I didn’t book a tour guide but he showed me where to go so super helpful and appreciated. I definitely recommend this service, it made the day at The Great Wall more enjoyable.

          Wonderful experience!!
          What a wonderful experience. I preferred to explore the Great Wall on my own, without a tour guide, and this was just perfect. The courteous, friendly driver helped me navigate the entrance to the Great Wall, including purchasing the chair lift and toboggan tickets on my behalf. He gave me great advice on which sections of the wall to explore and was waiting for me once I came back down. Highly recommended!!

        The trip was well organised. Linda is quick, flexible and efficient in responding and organising. Driver was good too, giving helpful info on how to access the sights and general info about the country. We booked a few more trips with Linda after a good experience on the first.

        Visiting Beijing for a day is well worth it. And I would recommend these folks for such day trip. Well-priced, very flexible, knowledgeable, patient, very friendly, and know their job very well. And the great memories will live with me and my family forever.

        Mr Wu was very professional, entertaining, friendly, and helpful. He took great pictures for us and gave us great directions so that we could easily find him once we finished with our attractions. Even helped us with our bags into the airport at the end. Everything was amazing. A+ job Mr. Wu.

        We had a great time! The driver was very professional and spoke great English. We were able to customize the stops each day.

        Linda thought ahead on each stop and made sure we had all of the arrangements in place. Excellent service.
