Jinshanling Great Wall Full-Day Guided Hiking Tour

We had an amazing day at the Great Wall! The tour was well organized and we had a great driver who picked us up in time and drove us safely to our visiting point! Before the tour we had a good contact with the driver and the company to adjust to tour as we want. So we could start early and skip the crowds. There were just a few people on the wall and we enjoyed a quiet and stunning historic place. Thank you for that tour and for the good organization! Our driver did a great job, picking us up in time, bringing us safely to the Wall and showing us where to meet again.

The tour is well organized from Ms. Susie who was our tour guide. Great place with great value. The sceneries is beyond my expectation, beautiful than photos plus the tourist was very very few. We did hiking go and back without cable car and we could observe how authentic, calm, magnificent, wild, well-preserved of Great Wall. This place is perfect for photography and hiking.

Everything was well coordinated. Guide will message you on Wechat the day before to confirm your pickup. Bus departs on time. The bus leaving Beijing city is shared with people visiting other attractions. When the bus arrives near Jinshanling, you will switch over to a SUV and driven directly to Jinshanling entrance while the bus continues dropping people off at their respective attraction. Price was reasonable. It's a good tour and we had no issues.

We were very impressed with our visit to the Jinshanling section. This section is beautiful, and there are actually very few people there. Our tour guide, Cindy, went to great lengths to provide us with information about the Wall and Beijing, even during the bus ride. The only downside was the long wait after the Wall until the bus departed; that could have been avoided.

So glad I booked this trip to Jinshanling. I was hesitant because it was a public holiday but there weren't that many people there at all because of the distance. This section is so beautiful. The scenery is quite different compared to Badaling. I think it is more beautiful and charming. I walked from the starting point all the way to the East gate. The last part is the original section that has not been restored and it was stunning. Our excellent guide Susie took great care of us and explained everything on the bus well. Our driver was also friendly and professional, he drove the bus with care. Thank you both for taking good care of us. Hope to see you all again in the future.

This is a great option for hiking Jinshanling w/o all the fuss of organizing transfers, etc, yourself or the expense of a private car. We were on a bus with two separate tour groups: we were the Jinshanling Hikers, they were the Water Town'ers. Our group was kinda beholden to the itinerary of the other group: so we didn't start hiking until just after 12pm, and had to finish by 5:30pm, even though the bus to Beijing didn't leave until 8pm, getting us back a very late 10pm. So, we used that time to have dinner at Water Town, while we waited. It can feel like an inefficient way to go. But on the other hand, having done this hike 20 years ago, there are a lot of small moving parts you have to figure out yourself if you aren't on a tour like this, and the headache isn't really worth it. Our guide Roberta was excellent, explained everything clearly, so that there was no stress, and we were able to just hike in peace, knowing everything else had been taken care of. A great (but long) day!! 😁

My tour to Jinshanling Great Wall was led by Roberta, it was well paced and definitely breathtaking. There was lesser crowd where we could take our time to enjoy the great sceneries. Overall good guidance and staff, but some waiting time is expected due to merging of another tour group at Gubei Water Town when heading back to Beijing city.

Excellent value for money! We were initially hesitant to book the tour because there were no reviews yet, but it's exactly the same tour that's offered here for 20% more. First, you start with the big bus, then the group splits up. Some continue to Water Town, and a smaller car then takes that group to the Jinshanling Great Wall. You'll practically have the Wall to yourselves. Please pack enough water and snacks, as it costs five times as much once you get there. Budget 20 CNY per person for the shuttle bus, and they accept both cash and Alipay. There were nine of us, and the group always stayed together because we all had a similar pace. The longer route without the cable car is easily manageable if you're in decent shape. After the Wall, we headed towards Water Town at 5 PM, where we waited another 2 hours for the others and had an expensive meal. Overall, very well organized and definitely recommended.

we had the best time during this tour. our driver picked us up from our hotel. he was very easy to communicate to, he used the translator very well. the drive took 2.5 hours. the driver helped us buying the tickets to the sight seeing bus and the cable car. he waited for us and greeted us when we came back. we recommend this tour to everyone. special thanks to our driver Guo Zicheng

Amazing experience!! the view was wonderful, the tour was well organized and Mr Han is a lovely and funny man, he took care of us the whole time ☺️
