Reviews
Reviews summaryThis Klook tour of the Great Wall and Summer Palace was an excellent experience overall! The itinerary was well-planned, and transportation was convenient, saving a lot of time by not having to plan our own routes. Our guide, Jessie (Guide Yang), was professional and enthusiastic, providing detailed historical backgrounds of the Great Wall and Summer Palace along the way, which made the visit much more insightful. The scenery at the Great Wall was truly magnificent, even more breathtaking in person than in photos. The Summer Palace, with its classical garden beauty, offered a relaxing escape with its picturesque lakes and mountains. The tour's timing was perfectly managed, never feeling rushed, and allowing ample time for photos and independent exploration. I highly recommend this tour for first-time visitors to Beijing; it offers great value and definitely deserves a five-star rating!
Thanks to Jessie, my wife and I had a wonderful tour. The Great Wall was beautiful and well worth visiting despite the hot weather and.. we also enjoyed the scenery at the Summer Palace. we especially appreciated the well-planned itinerary with no shopping stops or unnecessary activities.
We had a wonderful Great Wall and Summer Palace tour with our guide, Jessie. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout the day. Everything was well organized, and Jessie made the experience enjoyable and easy. Highly recommended!
We had an awesome day tour to the Summer Palace and Mutianyu Great Wall with our guide, Amy! Amy was very proactive and attentive throughout the day. When she learnt that Mutianyu was very crowded in the morning, she wisely suggested switching the order of the itinerary and bringing us to the Summer Palace first. It was such a good decision! By the time we reached the Great Wall, it was much easier and more comfortable, with no queue for the cable car. The tour was very well covered and well-paced, and Amy made sure we had a smooth and enjoyable experience without feeling rushed. She was also friendly, helpful and always one step ahead in making sure everything went smoothly. We were also very lucky to have beautiful blue skies and great weather today, which made the Great Wall experience even more amazing. 🥰 A big thank you to Amy for making our day so enjoyable! Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Amy as your guide! 👍🏻
Highly recommended tour, bus arrival was punctual, Jessie our tour guide was nice and experienced, giving clear instructions and fruitful guidance of history throughout whole journey
Jessie was a wonderful guide, attentive and patient, organised and knowledgeable. I encourage anyone who is interested in Great Wall and Summer Palace to book this tour.
Both the Great Wall of China and the Summer Palace are absolute must-see places in Beijing! Seeing the Great Wall truly felt like a dream come true. A huge thank you to our guide, Jessie Yang, who was so patient and detailed when explaining all the optional choices to help us make the best of our visits.
This day trip to Mutianyu Great Wall and the Summer Palace was absolutely amazing! Definitely deserves a 5-star rating! Our guide was particularly interesting, explaining things in a way that wasn't boring at all. It was really engaging to listen, and they explained everything clearly, whether it was the history of the Great Wall or the stories of the Summer Palace, so I wasn't bored at all. Mutianyu Great Wall in winter has fewer people and the scenery is absolutely stunning! Climbing up and seeing that snow scene was truly breathtaking, I felt like a hero! The best part was the Summer Palace, Kunming Lake was frozen solid and had become a huge natural ice rink! It was so much fun! The Tower of Buddhist Incense and the Long Corridor also looked particularly beautiful in the snow, just like a painting. There were no random shopping stops or forced spending throughout the entire trip, so I felt very free to enjoy myself. I especially appreciate the guide's care along the way, it was very thoughtful. Overall, I had a super happy trip, highly recommended! I'll be looking for you guys again next time I come to Beijing!
🎈For us Southern sweet potatoes, this was the most worthwhile Beijing winter group tour ever! A real shout-out to our bilingual tour guide today: Christina CheChe, not only professional but also super dedicated 👍. She arranged the pickup driver perfectly the day before the trip and gave different tour suggestions to group members from all over the world along the way. From the Mutianyu Great Wall in the morning to the Summer Palace in the afternoon, no matter how many people were in the group, she would explain the historical allusions in detail and share interesting stories at each attraction, which was refreshing. Especially at sunset 🌅, she led us to check in at the Summer Palace's most beautiful Sunset 📸 right on time. In such a cold winter, she explained while rushing along, panting the whole way, just to make sure everyone could capture precious images. I was really touched 😘 to have met such a great guide, how lucky 💖!
For my first trip to Beijing, I signed up for this "Summer Palace + Great Wall" day tour, and I'm so satisfied! I sincerely recommend it to everyone! We went to the Summer Palace in the morning and the Great Wall in the afternoon, and I think this itinerary is really well-arranged. The morning sunlight was soft, and the scenery of the entire Summer Palace was super beautiful, perfect for taking photos and checking in. Every angle was like a postcard. In the afternoon, we went to the Great Wall, walking and admiring the sunset. The light and shadow on the city walls were really shocking, and there were relatively fewer people at this time, so even during the holiday, the overall experience was still very comfortable, without feeling particularly crowded. I especially want to praise our tour guide, Susie. She is so professional and dedicated! She explained the history and background knowledge to us along the way, and the content was very lively and interesting, which gave me a deeper understanding of these two attractions. Regardless of whether everyone was listening or not, she would explain very carefully, and from time to time she would also ask if everyone was keeping up and if they were tired, which was really thoughtful. Most importantly, she is also very good at taking pictures for everyone, knows where the best views are and how to take the best photos. She's completely a combination of a thoughtful travel companion and a professional photographer! In short, I had a super happy time on this trip today and made a lot of good memories. Not only was the scenery beautiful, but the experience was also very good. If anyone is coming to Beijing for the first time like me, I would really recommend this route. It has a high cost-performance ratio and a perfect experience!
