me and my husband had a great time. the wall was beautiful. flower was our guide. she was very helpful and really went above and beyond to make sure we got all the correct information. even called our hotel to check in with us. it’s a self guided tour once you arrive. so you can go around as you please. the pickup is so convenient. we opted for the lunch option, but i wouldn’t recommend because it’s set food(we don’t like orange sauce flavor chicken) you don’t get options. instead order lunch at the restaurant on your own. would recommend both the cable car and toboggan! everything was so fun! we arrived very early so we beat the crowds. I would definitely recommend to book! Thank you flower for being so kind 🖤

We had an amazing experience visiting the Great Wall of China with our guide, Richard. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire tour enjoyable. Car was comfortable and clean. He recommended we leave heaps earlier to get to Great Wall to escape the crowds and it was the best idea. He shared fascinating history, answered all our questions, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

I had a fantastic experience on this trip. 🇨🇳Everything went smoothly and on time. Initially, I thought traveling to the Great Wall would be difficult and chaotic, but it wasn't at all. Booking the trip through Klook was excellent, and our guide, Michael, was incredibly helpful and accommodating. His explanations in both Chinese and English were fluent and easy to understand, and all the information he provided was clear. He gave great instructions on using the cable car and the sled, making the Great Wall experience for my family and me incredibly enjoyable. I booked a trip that included meals, and the food was delicious and the service was excellent. I was truly impressed. 🤩

This plan is perfect, the guide gives the option of paying an additional one to go to the top by cable car, but in my view it is not necessary, with the initial plan they offer from the chairs and going down the slide is enough, and there are better views in that part.

The tour was very well organized and went wonderfully. Despite long queues due to many people, we were very good on time. We had the all-inclusive package and were completely satisfied. The lunch afterward was also excellent. We can recommend it to anyone who wants to see and feel the Great Wall of China without any stress or headaches.

The tour was excellent. Our guide, Michael, explained everything clearly. We chose the option with the cable car and toboggan. However, if you want to walk the entire section, you'll need to purchase an additional cable car ticket for the other part of the wall. The total time spent walking on the wall was 3 hours. For those who wish to descend by toboggan, you need to arrive at the exit early, as the line is long.

Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Beijing. The entire tour was well-organized from start to finish, with punctual transportation and a knowledgeable guide who shared interesting historical facts about the Great Wall without making the experience feel rushed.

Good to know

  • The tour guide will provide a detailed explanation of the tour strategy on the bus. To facilitate your independent experience of the rich tour routes, Mutianyu Great Wall Scenic Area is purely free activity (the tour guide will not accompany you). If you have any questions during the tour, the tour guide will provide online mobile guidance at any time.
  • Hotel pick-up package: Due to frequent conferences and large-scale events in Beijing, traffic control is often implemented in areas within the Second Ring Road, where streets are narrow and intersections are dense. Some hotels are located in hutongs, where vehicles cannot directly enter. Therefore, pick-up may need to be within 500 meters of the hotel. (The specific pick-up location will be informed 1 day before departure)
