I joined the Mutianyu Great Wall + Summer Palace tour with Yoyo, and it was a very smooth and well-organised experience. Yoyo was professional, helpful, and knowledgeable, providing useful information throughout the trip. The schedule was well paced, the transportation was comfortable, and both sites were beautiful. I appreciate Yoyo’s guidance and would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Beijing.

Our tour guide, Mike, was very enthusiastic, friendly, and professional from the beginning to the end of the trip. His attitude was really great; he was humorous and funny without being too informal, making the whole trip relaxed and organized. Mike's explanation of the history of the Great Wall was very clear and vivid. Even though I'm not a history buff, I became interested in the history of the Great Wall of China because of his explanation. He told stories in a simple and easy-to-understand way, making them easy to listen to and remember. I was also very surprised that a Chinese tour guide could speak English so fluently, naturally, and confidently, with no communication barriers with foreign tourists. What impressed me the most was his attentive care for the tourists. He always paid attention to every member of the group, especially the children and the elderly, ensuring everyone's safety and comfort. He was very responsible and made people feel at ease. It was cold when we went up the mountain, so I recommend everyone wear more warm clothes. There are also fast food restaurants such as Burger King and Pizza Hut nearby, so if you are not used to Asian food, you don't have to worry at all. The whole itinerary was arranged very smoothly, and we also received free snacks and refreshments, which was really thoughtful. The overall experience exceeded expectations and was very satisfactory. I will definitely bring friends to use MUBUS's service again in the future, and I sincerely hope to meet tour guide Mike again next time!

We had hiccup at Guomao subway station to find the F exit gathering point. Ended up we took DiDi to catch up at another meet up point. It was a free and easy tour once we reached Gubei Town. We strolled around the town, climbed up Gubei Church to see sunset and hike Simitai Great Wall in the evening. The view was spectacular. It ended with drone presentation.

Anson is a very patient tour guide, he wait for everyone, answer every single question and also always offer to help out with photography. of couse he takes good photo. Do expect the tour is about 15pax and it ends on time

it was a very good experience, from meeting our guide at beitucheng mrt and then heading out to badaling great wall.It is November and consider very cold at great wall with the chilling winds blowing. Went up the tallest part of badaling great wall, paying the extra fee for the up/down cable car ride and a traditional beijing performance after we are down at the base .Moving from point to point in the itenaries. Wind was so cold at the locations . finally ending the evening at the Olympic park venue .
