Worth Every Penny - My daughter and I visited Shanghai. We wanted to see the Great Wall but time was limited. I happened across this day trip to the wall and decided to take a chance even though it was expensive. I had been to the wall before but my daughter had not. It is all inclusive with hotel pickup/ drop off, train tickets, entrance fees, and lunch. Summer, our amazing guide, met us at the station. All we had to do was follow her lead. She was very personable as well as knowledgeable. We visited a beautiful lake with ancient temples and beautiful gardens before going to the Wall which was amazing. So beautiful and picturesque. I especially loved that it was not as crowded as the section in Mutanyu. Then we had lunch at a lovely local restaurant. We ended the tour with and interactiive play that was absolutely fantastic. This tour was worth every penny. Thank you Summer sharing the history and for helping my daughter and me create treasured memories!!! Bernetha and Natalie Culbreath

Great, well run day trip! - Fantastic tour! Summer was a great guide and provided lots of commentary along the way. Very well organised and a lovely lunch too. We all had a great time and would definitely recommend this tour. It was super hot but we had lots of water with us and was no problem getting more. Wear comfy shoes and be prepared for a fair bit of walking. Thank you, Summer 😊

Outstanding day, guide and experience - Travelled to Linhai and the Great Wall with Jordan as my guide. A superb experience from pick up through to the end of the day. Jordan was very knowledgeable about East Lake, The Wall and the village sharing interesting facts and insights. As a solo traveller he shared general information and even helped me plan my next day. As a solo traveller you pay an additional premium, I have to say the experience from bullet train through to the lake, lunch, wall, old town and show event made it all worthwhile. Jordan was attentive, knowledgeable and great to be with. I would highly recommend asking for him when booking. Final note. Because of a typhoon the bullet trains were cancelled. Jordan and the team back at HQ worked tirelessly for a solution. Whilst not ideal to have a car journey back to Shanghai because of the duration, a taxi was arranged to ensure I was safely back at my hotel. If I could give Jordan and the company a 10, I would.

Fun and interesting night cruise - Beautiful city lights and Roy was a great guide for the trip sharing a lot of the history of the buildings and area during the cruise. Others said the food was sub par but I enjoyed it, good selection on the buffet and a bonus “small lobster” that was delicious.
