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.

My guide for this tour was Teacher Melonie. I brought my elderly parents along. She explained the history in great detail and gave us a lot of useful information. She was very patient with my parents, slowing her pace to take care of them throughout the tour. Her explanations were incredibly thorough, and she made the historical background very clear and easy to understand. If I ever get the chance to join another tour like this, I’d love to have her as my guide again.

On Saturday, August 29th, I joined an English tour with my mother and younger brother. We met at 10:00 AM at Exit C of Dongzhimen Station for a roll call, then took a bus for 1.5 to 2 hours to the Mutianyu Great Wall. Our guide, Mike, was very entertaining during the journey! It's important to note that the Klook tour fee does not include the entrance ticket to the Mutianyu Great Wall. Therefore, you will be asked to pay the entrance fee separately on the bus before arrival. Cash, Alipay, and WeChat Pay are all accepted. You can choose between the East Route or West Route (140 RMB per person), but it's often difficult to do both due to long queues for the cable car, so it's best to choose only one. You'll also be asked if you want to have the buffet lunch (80 RMB per person). Upon arrival, just after 12:00 PM, we gathered at the Mubus tourist center, where each person received their entrance ticket. After that, we had free time until 5:00 PM. I had the buffet, and it was delicious with a variety of dishes. I chose the East Route, which allows you to go up by cable car and down by toboggan. However, the toboggan line for the return trip was very long, so I ended up taking the cable car both ways. Near the Great Wall, there are several souvenir shops, and although slightly expensive, they also sell drinks and snacks. The steps of the Mutianyu Great Wall are much steeper than photos can convey; you really have to see them in person to understand. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring drinks. After meeting back at the tourist center at 5:00 PM, we took the bus back and disbanded at the same Dongzhimen Station. The total cost for one person for the day, including the Klook tour fee, the Mutianyu Great Wall entrance fee (140 RMB), and the buffet (80 RMB), came out to about 8,000 Japanese Yen. Initially, I planned to go by taxi, but since Mutianyu is about 70 kilometers from the city, joining the tour was definitely the right decision. Also, Mike, our guide, was very friendly and helpful. I'm glad I got to see the Great Wall with Mike as our guide. Thank you!

We had a wonderful day visiting Gubei Water Town and the Simatai Great Wall. The Simatai Great Wall was definitely a good experience and the views were amazing, but be prepared — it is quite a tough climb! It was challenging, but well worth it for the scenery and the experience. A special mention to our tour guide, Lisa, who was excellent throughout the day. She was very patient, friendly and helpful, and made sure we knew what to expect at each stage of the tour. Her instructions were always clear, both verbally and through WhatsApp, which made everything very easy and stress-free. Overall, a great day out and a memorable experience. Highly recommend the tour, especially with Lisa as the guide!

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!

Chali is a 5⭐️ guide! A lot of walking and climbing in greatwall but worth it. There are plenty of restaurants but i consider the buffet good. We enjoyed the XR too - dont hesitate if you have extra budget. Souvenir shops are all overpriced - a cap from 100RMB down to 40RMB but i guess can even be lowered to 20RMB - same goes to other items. Loved this trip.

We had a light rainy day during the tour, but honestly, it didn’t affect the experience at all. The tour was amazing, and we really enjoyed it! Our tour guide, David, was super friendly, energetic, and attentive. He took great care of us throughout the whole trip, and even kept in touch with us the day before via WeChat and WhatsApp to make sure everything was well prepared and went smoothly. Definitely recommend this tour! And if you’re lucky enough to have David as your guide, you’re in great hands! 😊👍

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!
