Jednodenní výlet do vodního města Gubei a na Velkou zeď Simatai

a must to go!!! no regrets! nice town with not so many crowds and beautiful and the great wall is not the picture perfect, which made it perfect cos it is slightly in ruins and looks like original condition (as it should be). can opt for day time, sunset or both....I recommend both. the walk to go up quite challenging but worth it.....the lunch is sooooo yummy (think Hai di lao on a budget). and bus is clean and good. our guide Lucy is nice and friendly speak good english.

Visiting Gubei Water Town and taking the cable car up to the Simatai Great Wall was one of the highlights of our trip to China. The ancient town is so picturesque, and the views from the wall are simply stunning. ​Our guide, Susie, made the experience even better! She was warm, professional, and knowledgeable. Susie took care of all the details and gave us great recommendations. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting!

Had a great day out at Gubei Watertown and Simatai Great Wall! The 2-hour bus ride from Beijing is actually a plus because it keeps the massive crowds away. Gubei is an artificial town built about 12 years ago to look like traditional Southern watertowns. It is commercialized—every building is a shop, restaurant, or inn rather than a real village—but it is beautifully done, clean, and in great shape. We had the whole afternoon to explore at our own pace. The highlight was Simatai Great Wall. It is much more rustic and unrestored compared to Badaling or Mutianyu, and not crowded at all. It was a long day, but 100% worth it for a change of pace from the city. Huge shoutout to our guide, Susie! Managing a group of 40 people speaking different languages with different itineraries is no joke, but she was incredibly organized and gave clear instructions. Highly recommend if you are in Beijing and won't be visiting any of the real watertowns in Southern China!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience! Our guide, Cindy, was incredibly kind, friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the entire tour. We were running late, but she patiently waited for us and welcomed us with a smile, which we truly appreciated! Cindy made the whole experience comfortable, interesting, and memorable. She explained everything clearly, took great care of us, and made sure we enjoyed every moment. Her positive attitude and warm personality made the tour even more special. Thank you so much, Cindy, for your patience, kindness, and amazing service! We would definitely recommend this experience to everyone and would be very happy to book another tour with her in the future

great experience, it wasn’t crowded and you were able to sit there and experience The Great Wall of China as well as the water town. The boat ride was a fun way to start and Lunch was delicious. Christina was a great tour guide who really ensured you knew what was happening and be able to fit everything in and made the day run smoothly.

Very beautiful, our tour guide Roberta speaks very fluent English. She is also very sweet and helped us to find our way with a quick response time. Easy to organize and clear instructions. I had a lovely time.

Velký dík úžasné průvodkyni Christině! Prohlídka byla úžasná, dostali jsme základní informace a dobré rady předtím, než jsme se vydali prozkoumávat město a zeď. Místo bylo perfektní, vůbec nebylo přeplněné. Christina byla velmi nápomocná, poskytla veškeré informace a pomoc, když bylo potřeba – skutečně výjimečná!

Lucy je velmi výmluvná, nápomocná a znalá průvodkyně. Během naší návštěvy Gubei Water Town a Velké zdi Simatai jsme měli naprosto jasné instrukce. Moc jsme si to tu užili! Výhled je tu lepší než v Mutianyu.

Naší průvodkyní byla Jane a den předem nám napsala zprávu, aby potvrdila detaily a také poskytla jasné instrukce pro samotný den. V den výletu byla Jane velmi přátelská a poskytla jasné informace o plánu a také dala velmi dobré návrhy pro naše vlastní itineráře. Vše sdílela v angličtině i čínštině a ujistila se, že jí všichni rozumí. Samotný denní výlet byl převážně volný a Jane nám v autobuse hodně povídala o vodním městě a Velké čínské zdi. Měli jsme dostatek času na prozkoumání jak vodního města, tak samotné Velké čínské zdi. Velkou zeď jsme navštívili večer a měli jsme to nejkrásnější počasí a výhled během zlaté hodinky. Doporučila bych navštívit Velkou čínskou zeď Simatai spíše než Badaling a Mutianyu a rozhodně doporučuji rezervovat si tento denní výlet.

Průvodkyně Susie poskytla vynikající služby. Poskytla jasné a organizované informace, včetně schůzek, a také základní rady. Jednodenní výlet byl také velmi pohodlný a členové skupiny byli velmi dochvilní, což učinilo výlet velmi příjemným.
