    I participated to several private tours with French friends and our guide James, as I am living in Beijing for four years now. Without James, we would never had the opportunity to explore non restored parts of Geat Wall. We followed him in beautiful wild scenery, sometimes challenging, far from the boring public crowded sections of the Wall. Each tour with James was magic, fun and friendly. I would have done even more tours if Covid had not hit the Country. I highly recommand our guide James, and I Thanks him so much for sharing HIS Great Wall with us !

    This is definitely the part of the wall to visit...This part of the wall has been restored. Pretty steep in places but not too many people so was easy to walk around.

    Took some time to pick people up from the hotels. Then about two hours up to the wall on winding roads (definitely NOT recommended if you get car sick) plus one 'buy something stop' on the way up. It was an interesting drive up through small communities.

    1.5 hours on the wall including time to get back down. One thing that wasn't initially clear is that you HAVE to buy a ticket to get on top of the wall and that cost is not included. (The trip up is on a 'ski lift' so if you have issues with height...NOT recommended.) I recommend the tobaggan for the way back down...it was fun and honestly alot of people stop so you don't actually end up going all that fast.

    Different way back...much more direct...and another stop to 'buy something'. Even though we stopped twice for 'tourist buy something', it didn't feel pressured and the stops were relatively quick.

    I do wish we had had more time to run around the wall and get out on some of the unrestored portions but overall this was a good tour.

    One of the best tours we have been on !!!! We had an amazing time at the great wall and enjoyed a very delicious authentic chinese meal.
    Our guide Miko did an amazing job. He helped us from the begining to the very end and even kept in touch until we reach our home country safely. He took amazing photos of us and selected the best food for us to enjoy.
    We had an amazing time. Highly recommend this tour. Five stars for our guide Miko.

    This is one of many hikes we’ve done with James and we cant speak highly enough of his patience, experience and knowledge about this part of the wall and many others in and around Jiankou. A terrific day out, with breathtaking and wonderful sights and sounds. James always keeps us all entertained and is also focused on safety and timeliness.

    First, I want to give credit to William, our guide. He was a wonderful guide. We learned so much from him and he was overly kind and helpful to us. We enjoyed our time along the wall so very much. It was a great experience. We were all hungry by the end and he brought us to a great place to get dumplings, which were delicious. We made it to the airport with enough time to check-in and relax before our flight. The airport can be hectic and confusing to newcomers, so he took the time to make sure we ended up in the right place to check-in, which was above and beyond what we expected. If you have a day to spend in Beijing, you will not regret booking a tour with this group. In fact, we would do it again!

    My husband and I had a wonderful time visiting Beijing and this hike was the highlight. Our tour guide, Stephen, did a fantastic job leading us and was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Our driver, Mr. Xu, was fabulous as well. The hike itself was beautiful and it was great to get to see the unrestored part as well as the restored.

    We booked the trip the day before, only a couple of hours before our flight. We received confirmation and a personal text message before we took off. The guide and driver were on time and absolutely lovely. The guide taught us some interesting history on the way but also let us nap on the 3 hour drive. He accompanied us on the walk and made sure we were safe and then took us to a delicious restaurant for lunch. The wall was absolutely breathtaking and the whole experience was perfect. So lucky to have seen the wall during snow.

    I did this hike with my husband and my parents who are in their mid 50’s and very active. Our guide was Rico and we had a spectacular time! He and the driver were prompt in the morning to pick-up at our hotel and the day’s expectations and schedule were made clear from the beginning. Rico continually checked with our group to make sure the pace he was hiking was good for everyone. The Jiankou hike is easily doable in athletic shoes as long as they have some grip/tread. This hike is a great way to see both the beauty of the wild and restored Great Wall. If you have trouble going down many stairs or with your knees I would suggest taking the tram down at Mutianyu, otherwise there are a ton of stairs. After our hike we had lunch at a local restaurant, who served really great food. We learned a lot from Rico who was very willing to answer any questions about the Great Wall and generally about Chinese culture!

    The tour was absolutely fantastic. Our tour guide Jerry was great. Very knowledgeable about the sights we were seeing and happy to take pictures of our group. He made sure we have enough of water, gave us sweet snacks and took a break whenever we needed one. Strongly recommend tours with him.

    We were able to customize the 2 day itinerary by adding an additional day and it was well worth the money! Commission from the main office was flawless as well as that of the trekking guide. Yashin our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the wall and local areas we traveled through. We had to make an adjustment one evening last minute and although he had never had a change in itinerary he handled it flawlessly! Everything went smoothly and with great ease! Jason our driver was always on time and his vehicle spotless. No difficulty with the language barrier either: Yashin spoke perfect English! I will say that although this was advertised as an intermediate trek it was a bit more challenging so I would prepare yourself a little beforehand. Accessing the wall each day involves a big of a vertical climb through the woods! Great trip, great company and the best way to see the wall!

    This is a fantastic tour and absolutely filled to the brim of all the main sights of China - but make sure you are physically fit and can cope with long walks, internal flights and different temperatures and humidity between the cities.

    The trip was amazing! Each location has its own appeal. Beijing has the big city, the Great Wall, the square, and so much more. It was worth it to go to Xian and see the terra cotta warriors. Pictures don’t do justice! Shanghai was great to see for the European influence and how different it was with the distance from Beijing. Ocean our tour guy in Shanghai was awesome! You need to ask for him!
