Mutianyu Great Wall Reviews

Fantastic 5.0
Booking this Mutianyu Great Wall package was incredibly smooth and hassle-free from start to finish. I loved having the entrance ticket, shuttle bus, and chairlift all combined into one simple booking. ​When I arrived at the scenic area, scanning my mobile voucher was quick and easy. I was able to bypass the long ticket queues completely. The shuttle bus pick-up point was simple to find, and hopping straight onto the chairlift saved so much time and leg energy for hiking the wall itself. ​The whole process was crystal clear, well-organized, and very easy to navigate even on my first visit. It made my entire day completely stress-free.

Great experience today on our trip to the Great Wall! Michael was a good guide and the cooler weather combined with clear skies were amazing! definitely do the cableway up and tabogan down if you can handle the walking and climbing.

Visiting the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall of China was an unforgettable experience! The views of the Great Wall stretching across the mountains are absolutely breathtaking. It is amazing to walk along this historic landmark and appreciate the incredible architecture and rich history behind it. The surrounding mountain scenery makes the experience even more spectacular and offers plenty of opportunities for beautiful photos. The cable car ride is a convenient option for reaching the wall, especially if you want to save energy for exploring. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes, as there are plenty of steps and uphill sections

Our tour guide, Mr. Liu, was enthusiastic, friendly, and attentive, taking excellent care of both adults and children. The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to comfortably explore various parts of Beijing. We hope to visit Beijing again in the future. Thank you very much.

Our tour guide Michael was very accommodating and knowledgeable! The Mutianyu Great Wall is well worth the visit! Our family took both the cable car round trip and the chair lift and toboggan to see different stations. What a wonderful experience!

We had an absolutely incredible experience yesterday visiting the Mutianyu Great Wall and the Ming Tombs! This tour is a solid 5 out of 5 stars. ​Our guide was phenomenal, with an outstanding knowledge of local history (and so much more!). He was extremely polite, patient, and always went above and beyond to answer all of our questions down to the smallest detail. Everything was perfectly organized as a complete package, meaning we didn't have to worry about a thing and managed to avoid all the long queues and hassle. ​Our driver was also wonderful—even though he didn't speak English, he was incredibly friendly and had a warm smile on his face the whole day. The car was spotless, comfortable, and came fully stocked with ice-cold water and plenty of delicious snacks for us to enjoy during the ride. ​We will definitely be recommending this tour to all of our friends and family who are planning to visit Beijing soon. Thank you for making our day so memorable and stress-free!

Overall, I enjoyed the experience and Yuly did a great job keeping everyone together and explaining key parts of the Forbidden City’s history. I would have preferred less time there and more time at the Great Wall. The itinerary could be more transparent. I didn’t expect to take a public bus after the Forbidden City to reach another bus, or to pick up more passengers along the way. The Great Wall extras were also confusing. On the bus, we were asked which sides we wanted to visit and charged 280 RMB for cable car/toboggan tickets. It felt like these were compulsory, although they are optional and cheaper options are available on site. This should be explained clearly before payment. That said, the cable cars and toboggan were amazing and so much fun! I don’t regret the experience or extra money spent. I’m grateful for the guidance and knowledge I gained, although I now feel confident I could organise it myself next time and spend more time exploring the Great Wall at my own pace!

I had Yang as a tour guide who was great. Although the pick up from hotel was a little chaotic as the driver and I couldn’t understand each other and I wasn’t sure if this was definitely the right pick-up, when I met Yang at the coach pick-up place, her English was clear and helpful. I had a lot of questions about lunch in the itinerary and whether the cable car is necessary etc which she was able to answer. I am a fast walker but Yang explained that the cable car still is required given the time limit - it was a hot day so very appreciated. My advice to anybody visiting who enjoys hiking and is speedy, it might be possible to walk up if you skip the lunch and are relatively fit. I sweat a lot but could’ve done it if I also hadn’t booked lunch. However I found Yang very responsive and fluent in English to every question I had and for the average person I definitely recommend taking the cable car. We have not yet been to the Bird’s Nest. Thank you.
