Great uncrowded section - If you want to explore an uncrowded section of the Wall, this tour is for you. The pick-up was on time and the time they give you to explore the Wall is more than enough. On the day I booked, only 3 other passengers were going so it was quite comfortable. Our driver had very limited English (like mine hahaha) but it was not difficult to communicate with him. 100% recommended

Great Experience!! - So glad we chose this excursion. The tour company reached out to us immediately to confirm our pick up time. They arrived exactly as scheduled. Jackie and Mr. Zhang picked us up along with 5 others. The drive was 2.5 hours in a comfortable air conditioned van with WiFi. Jackie gave us a map and guided us to the entrance of the Great Wall. He explained where to exit and they would be waiting to pick us up. The views were absolutely amazing. There are vendors along the way if you need water, soda, beer, etc. This section lacked crowds and kids so this was a huge plus for us! You have plenty of time to take photos and rest, but be prepared for the long walk down when you exit. We made it out with 1 minute to spare at our meet up time. Just FYI if you have are not physically fit or have knee, ankle, hip problems, we do not recommend.

Not to be missed exceptional views and such a fantastic memory - Good communication beforehand with Zachary the guide. Was picked up on time and the coach was comfortable. A very different walk to Mutianyu and would highly recommend as not busy. Sturdy shoes and a walking stick were a great help.

Idyllic and no crowds - Beautiful hike, but beware: sometimes extremely steep and slippery. Good non-slip shoes are required. If someone gets dizzy quickly, this tour is less suitable.

Amazing experience - Hiking on the Great Wall basically alone was once in a lifetime experience!we highly recommend to go there if you are not afraid of high and if you like to hike. I would also not recommend with small children!

Jinshanling part of the Great Wall was so quiet. - Jinshanling part of the Great Wall was so quiet. Had the wall to ourselves for a killometers. Also the wall winds across so many hills, ridges, crests and was so picturesque. Jackie the driver and car were great too.

Excellent day and wonderful section of the Great Wall - Excellent day and wonderful section of the Great Wall (very quiet and able to connect to nature). You can see the wall stretch for miles, it is a beautiful site. Would highly recommend for those who enjoy nature, quieter wall section, and hiking (it is steep on some sections).

Great experience! Best... - Great experience! Best part of the wall with scenic views and little tourists. Confortable car and driving. Only thing is that little information is provided beforehand arriving on the wall. Could also have a bit longer on the wall since it’s so beautiful but big.
