Private trip to Mutianyu Great Wall from Beijing with an English-speaking driver, hotel pickup, admission included, plus optional cable car and toboggan.
“I highly recommend this tour if you're looking for direct pick up and access to the Great Wall. We had Violet help coordinate via Whatsapp and a driver named Wu. It was excellent, the coordination comes directly to your address in Beijing and we went to the Mutianyu Great Wall which was around 2 hours away. Way better than a bus ride. Our driver also directed us to food and the portion that has a gondola and a toboggan slide down the hill back to the restaurants and parking area - highly recommend having your driver book that (you pay a little extra for it) and just get the tickets…”

“I had an amazing experience to walk The Great Wall of China! I highly recommend my Driver Summer who went above and beyond for my comfortable journey - back and forth to PEK. He gave me extra time to take my pictures which are my beautiful memories of exploring this wonderful of the world! Despite the language barrier , google translate helped me to communicate with him.

“A guy was waiting for me at arrivals with my name on a sign and whisked me away to my hotel in a nice clean, comfortable car. The company then called me the evening before my departure flight to confirm my return journey to the airport. Again the driver was on time friendly and the car was clean and comfortable. It is SO much easier and less stressful to organise this than try to figure out public transport/ taxi's etc. upon your arrival at an airport.”
