Guide: Sir Michael Feng will inform of your tour details the day before via WeChat or WhatsApp. He is easy to talk to and responds quickly and clearly. Itenerary: The itenerary is pretty straightforward - the bus picks us up via meeting point or near your hotel and we go straight to Great Wall. After around 4 hrs, we go back to the city. Quality of transfer: Opting for pick up made it very convenient for us since the departure time is very early. The mode of transfers offered in this tour (bus, shuttle bus, cable car, etc.) made our tour much more comfortable. Value for money: Overall we felt this exp is worth the value for momey considering the tour guide handles everything for you. My only comment for improvement is that I think the lunch buffet could be better since most of the food I ate are cold already.

An unforgettable family experience! Our guide Michael was fantastic: professional, friendly and very caring with us and our children. He shared fascinating explanations about the history of the Great Wall and great tips to avoid the queues. The cable car offers a stunning view over the Wall and the mountains. The scenery is breathtaking, and Mutianyu is much calmer and less crowded than other sections. The lunch was good too. Comfortable and punctual transport, perfect organization from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour, and a big thank you to Michael! 🏯

We chose a package with pickup. Since there were five of us, the guide booked a Didi taxi. After meeting the guide, we headed to the Great Wall. The guide was good, but their voice was a bit soft on the bus. I recommend choosing a package that includes cable car or cableway/toboggan tickets directly. There are two return sessions: 1:40 PM and 2:40 PM. My advice is to choose the cableway/toboggan option if you come here, as it's more exciting and the Great Wall area isn't as crowded. The cable car area can be quite busy. For your return, you'll need to walk down to the bus parking area.

Our guide Mr.Leo and our driver Ms. Nadia are very nice. They show us the quality tour and comfortable. Mr. Leo who has a lot of knowledge about Chinese history and conecting it in world history also. They drop us at local market to buy the fresh fruits and resonable price. We would say we have very incredible day with them.

Our guide was Dona, who contacted us a day before to inform about change in pick up point. She was quite detailed in her explanation of where to climb at MuTianYu Great Wall section and helped us buy tickets for the cable car and chairlift+toboggan. with her advice, we were able to experience both instead of just only one, as we could only choose either the cable car or the chairlift+toboggan option at checkout. we could also avoid the queues based on her advice which saved us a lot of waiting time.

Our guide is Ms. Angela and she is amazing, at the start we were a little late because of our train delay, but she’s willing to wait and even talk to our Didi driver to speed up. She greet us warmly too. she even went the extra mile to help me with my bag. The trip is very good, all the explanations about the trip are clearly communicated, the guide even suggests which route to take first to accomodate our rides. We first took only the chair-lift and the slides, she suggest our wants to take the cable car and suggest the route to take. The lunch are good and the ladies at the restaurant are nice

Good to know

  • Package including hotel pickup: Due to frequent conferences and large-scale events in Beijing, traffic control is often implemented in areas within the Second Ring Road, where streets are narrow and intersections are dense. Some hotels are located in hutongs, making direct vehicle access impossible. Therefore, pickup may need to occur within 500 meters of the hotel. (The specific pickup location will be communicated 1 day before departure)
