- Mutianyu Great Wall - Guests will be picked up from their Beijing hotel, and it takes approximately 1.5 hours to reach the Wall from downtown Beijing. The Great Wall at Mutianyu is slightly farther from Beijing than the more popular Badaling section, but it is less crowded. This part of the Wall is fully restored, featuring handrails to assist on the steeper sections, and offers breathtaking views.
- Ming Tombs (Ming Shishan Ling) - Following the Great Wall visit, the tour proceeds to the Ming Tombs. Three sections are open to the public: the Sacred Way, Changling Tomb, and Dingling Tomb. The Sacred Way is the first attraction of the Ming Tombs, serving as the main path leading to the thirteen imperial tombs within the scenic area. The two rows of lifelike stone sculptures (12 animals and 6 officials) on either side are a highlight of the Sacred Way and are very popular with visitors. Among the Ming Tombs, Changling is the largest, earliest, and most magnificent, with the best-preserved structures. Dingling is the only tomb where the underground palace has been excavated. Visitors can choose to explore one of these based on their interests. After completing the tour of the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs, guests will be transported back to their hotel.

Jessica made the great wall trip even greater. - Thank you Jessica for a wonderful and unforgettable, personalised trip to the Ming Tombs and Great Wall. The service was excellent from pick-up with a great, full commentary from our companion - from hotel pickup to drop-off. Jessica had great knowledge of both the tombs and the wall and takes great photos as well. The private tour in a luxurious Buick van made the experience relaxed and more than comfortable, and having a separate driver in addition to Jessica made it even better as our guide could speak with us without distraction. We were able to spend as much time as we needed at the wall as well - recommend the toboggan ride down. I highly recommend this tour with Jessica.

Best experience in Mutianyu - Ken, the driver who took us to Mutianyu, was incredible. He picked us up at the hotel at the agreed time and gave us a fantastic ride with good conversation in a perfect english. Once we arrived at the Great Wall, his management of the tickets were quick and effective. We highly recommend experiencing the Great Wall with Ken.
Thank you for everything. We will see you in the next trip
