Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Full-Day Exploration

Highly recommended this trip! Special thanks to our tour guide, Mike, for his engaging and insightful sharing about the Great Wall and Chinese culture. His helpful tips allowed us to explore both the east and west sections of Mutianyu comfortably. A truly memorable and beautiful experience!

Joining this Mutianyu Great Wall group tour was one of the best decisions I made during my trip. From the moment we arrived at the meeting point till the end of the journey, our guide Kevin was outstanding. Kevin was organized, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared fascinating stories and historical insights about the Great Wall, making the trip much more meaningful than simply visiting a famous landmark. His instructions were clear and detailed, helping everyone understand the different routes and the best way to explore based on individual fitness levels and interests. He also assisted with cable car and chairlift ticket arrangements, making the entire process hassle-free. Overall, Kevin's professionalism, enthusiasm, and genuine care for his guests transformed a great sightseeing trip into a memorable experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Beijing, especially if Kevin is your guide. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I had an amazing experience on this Great Wall tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Beijing. The whole trip was very well organized, from the meeting point to the transportation, which made everything smooth and stress-free. A special thank you to our guide, Jily, who truly made the day unforgettable. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Great Wall and shared fascinating stories and insights that brought the site to life. Her explanations were clear, engaging, and easy to follow, which made the experience even more meaningful. Jily was also very helpful and attentive throughout the trip. She gave us great advice on which routes to take and how to make the most of our time on the Wall. On the way back, she went the extra mile by sharing useful tips and recommendations for visiting Beijing, which was really appreciated and helped us plan the rest of our stay. Overall, it was a fantastic and memorable experience!

It was a fun and very time-saving trip. I recommend going on the first round (7.50 am). Tony was a nice guide, providing great advice and taking care of us throughout the trip. I recommend buying the package that includes lunch, as the food menu was very diverse.

Kevin is a knowledgable guide who shared alot of information about Great Wall of China and the different courses we could take to visit the place. He is proficient in English and humorous, making the transport there less boring. There was a variety of food for lunch. Although it is a buffet, only tea was included. Hope they can include other drinks in future. There are many buses returning to Beijing city after 3.30pm. As long as they hit certain number to go back, they will send a bus to bring us back. This is good as we do not have to wait for other people from our bus(as some may not spend as much time in climbing the wall as others).

Pleasantly surprised by the quality! Well organized. The meeting point was at a subway station, followed by bus transport. The guide explained the history of the wall and then precisely detailed how to visit it, which side to take, and how to ascend or descend. Afterward, he assisted with paying for cable car or toboggan tickets at the official price. Once there, he showed us the Mubus buildings and provided instructions. We took another bus up to the base of the wall before taking the cable car or walking. We walked a lot because we visited both sides, which is possible if you're athletic! We went up the east side by cable car to station #2, came down by toboggan in the morning, went up the west side by cable car to station #23, and came down by cable car. We visited on our own, separate from the group. Then, the Mubus buffet: good. Plan to bring food or get the buffet because you'll be starving. Kevin was a great guide, thank you!! The only minor negative point is that it takes a bit of time to get there with all the explanations and waiting for the group...

First, let me say this is my second time booking a Chinese-speaking tour, but after checking in this time, I was again assigned to an English-speaking tour. The first time I booked this Chinese-speaking tour through Klook was in March 2024. At that time, after checking in, I was also assigned to an English-speaking tour. They told me there was no Chinese-speaking tour and insisted I join the English one. Since I couldn't adjust my subsequent itinerary, I had no choice but to go along and translate for my family. This time, upon check-in, I was again told to report to the English-speaking tour. It was only after my insistence and the help of a guide named Xiao Zhou on site that I was able to join the Chinese-speaking tour. Xiao Zhou's service was excellent, from introducing the history of the Great Wall and Beijing, all the way to how to best experience the Great Wall, including the advantages of the East and West sections and must-see attractions. Thanks to Xiao Zhou's introduction, we were able to explore both the East and West sections in one go and had an incredibly fun and exciting toboggan ride! He also helped us maximize our time effectively – no need to return on the original vehicle; we could get back to the Mutianyu Bus Tourist Center before 5 PM. For us, as tourists who have visited the Great Wall twice (and possibly for the last time), this was truly a fantastic trip!! Thank you, Xiao Zhou, for helping us stay with the Chinese-speaking group and for frequently appearing on the bus and at attractions to guide us!! I highly recommend everyone participate in Mutianyu Bus's activities!!! And Klook, please make sure to clarify how Chinese-speaking tours are displayed on the travel agency's end!

The tour guide gave us tips on how to maximize our time on the Great Wall. we initially wanted to focus on the East Route of the Mutianyu Great Wall. But after her suggestion, we did both the East and West route and even got back in time for a very sumptuous buffet lunch. she also helped to get tickets for the chair lift and tobanggo ride. it was very well planned. We enjoyed it very much. Thank you Cici.

I honestly can’t imagine a better Great Wall experience than the one we had with Mubus and our fantastic guide, Jily! From start to finish, she was an absolute joy—knowledgeable, upbeat, and incredibly thoughtful. She helped us choose the West Section, and it was the best decision ever. We had stunning views, peaceful paths, and none of the usual chaos—just pure magic. What made Jily truly special was how she connected with us. She shared amazing stories about the wall’s history, from ancient battles to hidden secrets, making the walk feel like a living history lesson. She also took the time to answer every question with a smile and made sure our group stayed happy and comfortable the whole way. Big shoutout to Mubus as well—smooth pickup, comfy seats, and a lovely lounge with free tea and snacks before heading up. There were vegan options for lunch also. Everything was seamless Do yourself a favor: book Mubus, and if you're lucky enough to get Jily, you're in for an unforgettable day!

This is the bestttt way to visit The Great Wall. I went with 10 family members (5 was elderly). The bus left a little late (10 mins) because we are waiting for some participants but that’s okay. The bus is comfortable, the driver was good, the tour guide Mike was very informative and fun! The journey was smooth and everything has been taken care of (the admission ticket, shuttle bus, and they also help with cable car ticket booking). Mubus has this big building for the participant and the restaurant for us to have lunch. We have 5 hours to explore and allowed to come back, and have lunch (if you paid for the lunch package). It was buffet style and the food variety was amazinggggg!! Everyone agrees they love the food. If you book this trip, you HAVE TO book the lunch! Worth every penny. It was a perfect day for us. Thank you, Mubus and Mike ❤️
