This was also a highlight of our trip to China this May! It is an excellent way to experience the Great Wall and see the unrestored and restored sections of the wall with a 5 hour hike (Jiankou to Mutianyu). Feels like you can really engage and imagine all the blood, sweat and tears that must have gone into building... More

My friend and I signed up for the 3 Day Small Group Discovery Great Wall Hiking- Jiankou,Gubeikou to Simatai West and got extremely lucky - we had a private guide all to ourselves! Our guide was Peter, and although hiking the Great Wall in itself is unforgettable, Peter made the experience all the more incredible! Peter met us at the... More

First - this was the highlight of our trip to China last April! I would absolutely recommend it! I corresponded via email in advance with Judy and she was great to work with. We had arranged a 5 hour hike from unrenovated/unrestored section at Jiankou to the renovated section at Mutianyu tour. We were picked up from our hotel at... More

My husband and I booked the one-day Mutianyu tour and were lucky to get Robert as our guide - he was excellent. We hadn't planned to go to to the very end of the steep side but it was just hard to stop! Maybe it was the perfect weather or maybe it was the little Snickers bar that Robert magically... More

My friend and I did the 3 day hike. Staying at the local farmers place at night. This was such an incredible experience. Peter was our guide; not only did he give us maps and a write up of the great wall but he took the time to make sure he got great photos for us. The great wall was... More

My husband and I chose GreatWallHiking.com for our trip to the wall on the recommendation of a friend who had lived in Beijing, and we could not have imagined a better experience. The reservation came with very clear directions. We ended up as the only participants on the day of our hike, and had a comfortable car ride to Simitai.... More

My son and I joined a couple from the UK to experience 2 days of hiking of the great wall. The first day we hiked up the mountain at Jiankou. We walked the unrestored section of the wall for 5 hours and ended in the restored section of Mutianyu. This walk was fantastic, not easy at times but a very... More

Last week, my husband and I hiked up the Great Wall and we picked Gary's company to take us through! It was one of the best decisions we made (and of course TripAdvisor ratings helped). Peter, our tour guide picked us up from our hotel at baout 7:30 am. He then took us to get a few more people from... More

Incredible day hiking on the great wall. We were very lucky with the weather and had amazing views. This section of the wall was deserted - we saw one small group as we were walking up to the wall and one on the way back but for the rest of the time we had it to ourselves. Robert was great... More

We arrived on a cruise ship with our port 3 hours from Beijing. I booked Great Wall Hiking to pick us up at the port, hike the Great Wall, return us to our hotel and tour with us in Beijing the following day before returning us to the port. This company could not of done a better job. Our driver... More
