        worth spending extra £
        Very well organised trip. Our driver, Bruce, spoke very good English and was very helpful. The trip went very smoothly and we did not waste any time on waiting for the transportation.

        Amazing experience hiking the unrestored sections of the Great Wall
        We had an amazing experience, hiking the unrestored sections of the Great Wall, where we started in Jiankou. If you truly want to experience the wall, don't do the tourist, fully restored sections. Do the remote, unrestored sections. There were no people, only amazing views and the wall as it was originally constructed. It does require a moderate level of fitness however. Our guide Michael was excellent also. Very knowledgeable, as well as personable. Highly recommend this tour to truly experience the wall as it should be.

        Excellent private tour - highly recommended
        My guide Mr Gui was pleasant, has a decent English proficiency and possesses excellent photography skills! He and this tour group are truly the best. I highly recommend this private tour.

        Great Service
        we 6 of us went to SHANGHAI, BEIJING and the service from the company it was remarkable, especially the guides they provide us in both cities, they are very helpful and very friendly and detailing of the sites was awesome, If anybody plans to visit these places we all are suggesting these company only, the Owner of the Company MS VIOLET is very helpful with the questions I asked before I leave to their cities.(ANYTIME), and their package was not bad either compare with others also

        Great day trip out of Beijing
        Wonderful day outing from Beijing. My driver, Mr. Guo, was very accommodating, polite and a careful driver. The only unexpected thing is that I needed to pay for the cable car lift from the base up to the Great Wall (about $20). Not a problem but just something to be noted in the description.

        Nice and Pleasant drive to Mutianyi Great Wall and back.
        Great personalized private pick up. Matthew, our designated driver was very friendly and gave us lots of insights on places to go in Beijing. The drive up to Mutianyi Great Wall was pleasant and Matthew drove us up safely and carefully. Great choice for those wishing a bit of privacy from the normal tour buses and loads of tourists.

      On 08/19 I walked the great wall with Kong, it was amazing. He was very attentive, picked us up from the hotel and made sure we had a pleasant experience. He told us about the history of the great wall, took very good pictures and at the end of the day returned us to the hotel, always showing remarkable friendliness and hospitality.
      My experience was 10/10

      Been there with my friends, comfortable transportation, water bottle as a bonus. Friendly environment. The tour was nice. Would recommend to go in November so the trees will be orange yellow red etc. And the slide from the top of the mall at the end gives you some positive energy at the end

      This day tour is fabulous! We were picked up at our hotel by Coco, she had great local knowledge and her English was very good. We visited the Ming tombs first due to the wet weather, we enjoyed learning all about the different dynasties. We then went on to the Mutianyu part of the Great Wall, wow what a place absolutely stunning and so interesting listening about the history. We took the cable car to the top and walked along the wall taking pictures and admiring the stunning scenery. We would highly recommend this tour with Coco, she was so friendly and made us feel like she was our friend rather than our guide.

      My daughter and I had a great time with Lucy in China visiting the great wall and Ming Tomb. I have been several times but the first for my daughter, Lucy was a great guide worked so we were able to see the sights at our speed. She even helped us after the tour to locate a tea house so I could restock my tea supply. Great driver. Very memorable time.

      I went with my husband to this tour and we were very disappointed. Emma our guide was fluent in Spanish but sometimes it was very difficult to understand what she was saying. We did not received any information of history of the great wall, so it was only driving. When we arrived to the wall, they show you like 1 hr and then they propose to leave! We were really upset, because we were not expecting just to go up to the wall take a picture and go down. Therefore, we told our guide that we wanted to stay more and she didnt have an option but to wait. The lunch was awful, its a buffet with not a lot of options and at the time we arrive there was only rice and onion rings. The Ming Tomb is very far and is not that interesting and we did it in 45 minutes.

      In conclusion, if you want to spend a day in the wall and learn some history this is not the tour!

      Dear Andrea, We are so sorry to hear your story and experience. Emma is a professional Spanish tour guide,but because sometimes with the Chinese accent,so it will be difficult to understand.We will look into this and ask our guides improve their languagge skills and history backgrand. We are very sorry that you were let down and not accompnied along the Great Wall.Emma told us you spend 3+ hours on the Wall while she is not a professional hiking tour guide,that is why she was waiting for you until you come back to walk to the toboggan. We are sorry for that and if you have a chance to come to Beijing again,we will arrange a professinal hiking tour guide for you. For lunch,we are sorry again when you were there not so much choice.We should notice the restaurant you will be there later and ask them to pack some food for you. About Ming Tombs,as the tourists have different interests,sorry you are not interested the Tombs. By the way,we emailed you for our apologize but not received from you.

      We had a wonderful day with Linda. My husband and I booked a private tour which was a great choice. Linda is very friendly and knowledgeable. We learned a lot from her and had some laughs along the way. Of course, she knew the best place to take the iconic Great Wall picture. The Ming Tomb was also very interesting and well worth the visit. This is definitely the way to go if you have the time!
