Amazing trip. Well worth it. 100% recommend! - Amazing trip, would 100% recommend. The Great Wall was amazing to see. Trip provider suggested we went earlier than originally planned due to crowds. This was great advice and allowed us to see the wall when it was quieter compared to late morning/afternoon. Our driver Mr Guo was great, he took great care of us and made sure we had the best time. Thank you!!

Great Wall trip was a highlight - 20 hour stopover in Beijing so we took this tour for the morning and slept in the afternoon prior to our flight leaving at 3:00 am. Contact with Jenny and her team was prompt and pickup from the arrivals hall was easy. It may well be the highlight of the trip for us! The tour guide Mr Wu drove us beyond the buses where you would normally park your car and catch a bus. We decided to take the gondola up and there was a 30’ wait in line for this. The Great Wall was beyond expectations! Brilliant! We walked down from the wall to meet Mr Wu to avoid more waiting in line. Recommend driver and trip

Perfect day - great views, guide, and photos - What a perfect way to see the Great Wall! Ken was an amazing driver/guide for the day and went above and beyond to make the day great for me, especially as a solo traveler. The drive there and back was smooth and comfortable, Ken was very friendly and shared facts about China/Great Wall, and helped me get a ton of great pictures! I would definitely recommend anyone looking to see the Great Wall to consider booking this activity.
