- diamada190 contributionsGreat experienceWe had an amazing time. Jenny arranged the trip for us super easilly and our driver was fantastic. Met us at the airport, had some fruits for us and the kids and drove us to the great wall. He let us explore and then took us back to our hotel. Highly recommend this tour.Written February 13, 2025
- L7200EIjanaf0 contributionsHappy to recommend, a great dayPicked up promptly from my hotel in a comfy car, An early start was an excellent choice as I got up on the wall and had stretches almost to myself. By lunchtime it was busy busy., Peter the driver was helpful, attentive and ever smiling. Being February it was cold but not overly so, dress warmly and layer. The wall did not disappoint either.Written February 12, 2025

- matthewmQ3818JV0 contributionsGreat experience!Mr. Guo was an excellent driver and guide for our day trip up to the Mutianyu Great Wall and the Summer Palace. He was very courteous, friendly, and helpful. He made sure we got to everywhere we needed to be in a quick and efficient manner. We would definitely recommend this tour to others.Written January 28, 2025
- C5926BYmichaelaf0 contributionsLayover tour Great WallOur guide Jessica waited for us at the airport and took us to Great Wall with her driver, on the way she told us a lot about Chinese history and culture and history about Great Wall. We received refreshments in the car which was very nice. We spent some hours at the Great Wall, our guide made us pictures, showed us beautiful spots and told us interesting things. Jessica is a very good photographer, so we have a cool pictures to our album. She is energetic and funny, so her speaking is catchy and interesting. Thank you Jessica, we had great experience at the Great Wall with you! Recommended.Written January 21, 2025

- cesarmdezmnz0 contributionsVisit with family to the Great Wall during a 20-hour layover in BeijingI visited the Great Wall last December with my wife and 1-year-old daughter during a 20-hour layover in Beijing. Ruby, our host, picked us up at our hotel in Beijing and drove us for 90 minutes to the Great Wall. Ruby was at all times a very nice and attentive host. It felt from the beginning she had known us for longer than just a few minutes. The drive was very comfortable, in a spacious and clean Mercedes just for the 3 of us. At the Great Wall, Ruby led us to the entrance, bought our tickets, and left us on our own for more than 2 hours. When we were done, we messaged her again, and she waited for us at the exit to bring us back home, and we still had time to sleep for 4-5 hours at the hotel before going back to the airport. The Great Wall was an amazing experience. It was a bit cold, normal for December, but it was quiet without being crowded.Written January 14, 2025
- 432magdalenam0 contributionsOne day in Beijing with Mr GouI would to like to recommend our excellent driver and tour guide in Beijing Mr Gou. We were collected straight from the airport and we started sightseeing once we left the airport. Mr Gou was already waiting for us at the airport, in the car we have received complementary water and food. Tickets were collected by Mr Gou at each point we went to see. It was a great day and a great pleasure to be able to quickly see Beijing with such excellent driver and tour guide. I def would recommend Him to anyone who is coming to Beijing.Written January 11, 2025
- Acandria0 contributionsGreat experience made easier and more pleasant by the driver/guideWhile expensive (compared to taking the dedicated bus there) we really appreciated our driver and his efforts in getting us there, guiding us around, obtaining tickets for us, telling us where to go, what options there are and how to exit and leaving us to go at our own pace after. We had lunch in a restaurant after we came back down and the driver came to find us to make sure we were fine, we offered for him to eat with us but he's so polite and left to wait elsewhere. Unfortunately i forgot our driver's name! He said he's been doing this for 8 years and he seems to know everyone at the entrance and ticketing areas lol Highly recommend in any case.Written January 11, 2025

- W3504ICkathryng0 contributionsTime well spent on stopoverHi. We had a fantastic day, our driver was amazing! Kind, great sense of humour. Loved the bananas and plenty of water. Sorted our tickets, Took us through and up to the top of the wall, took photos and then left us to explore. Clear on times and information. Helped with ordering lunch, guided us round Tianenmen square, took is into the Forbidden city past all the queues and showed us the map and where to meet. Always at meeting place before us, really felt looked afterWritten January 4, 2025
- Sammmmmiezz0 contributionsPerfect Experience - Highly Recommended!Perfect day. Driver was friendly and helpful throughout our journey from the hotel pick up onwards. We ended up taking the closed cable car up to the wall and walking mostly downhill before taboganning down. Travelling with a 5 and 65+ the private tour was a great experience with a level of added comfort. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to visit.Written January 2, 2025
- Laka11110 contributionsNo regrets choosing this driver at all!What a fantastic experience we had on our tour today, made all the more brilliant by an absolute gentleman of a driver! I would recommend him in a heartbeat for future trips for anyone wishing to experience the Great Wall whilst in safe and capable hands. He was a good driver, very clear in his direction so we didn’t take any wrong turns and lets you experience the wall at your own pace. He also recommended a very good food place for us for after and waited for us so we could eat. If i could, I’d have bought the man a beer and chatted to him all night.Written January 2, 2025
- kawauchi19710 contributionsFantastic experience on the Great Wall MutianyuI had a fantastic and unforgettable experience celebrating my birthday while admiring this remarkable structure built centuries ago. This amazing day was made possible by Jenny and Jack, our driver. They took us to the site, captured photos, shared its intriguing history, and ensured we returned safely to our starting point. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something unique and exciting while avoiding tourist traps and long lines. Thank you so much, Jenny and Jack. I look forward to our next adventure together!Written December 23, 2024
