We had a great experience...
We had a great experience with Dong Xufei. Everything was very well organized from pickup to drop-off, and the whole trip went smoothly.
He gave us a map, shared helpful tips for the route, and made sure we had all the information we needed for the visit. After the trip, he even provided us with snacks, which was a very thoughtful gesture.
He was a lovely, friendly driver, and we would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable transfer. Thank you for making our trip so easy!

Amazing trip to Jishangling Great Wall
We booked a full day tour to Jinshangling the remote section of the great Wall. It’s a 2.5 hr trip from Beijing and as well worth it as there are hardly any other tourists there and unlike other closer sections of the Wall, you feel like you have the wall to yourself. Our driver Jack was outstanding. He was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and very professional. The vehicle was very comfortable and, above all, we felt very safe with Jack’s driving.Highly recommended.

What a day! The best of the wall, a village meal and the water Town! Everything included and time can be customized. Lots of history and lots of fun!

Great tour and guide (Jimmy)
Great tour. Well worth the extra travel to get away from the crowds. Tour guide Jimmy was very knowledgeable on all things China not just tour specific.

Sunset Heaven
The sunset walk on the Great Wall was nothing short of amazing. The return walk through Water Town was an unbelievable experience. My wife and I truly enjoyed the day. Milo our guide spoke excellent English and had years of experience. He went above and beyond to ensure we learned and enjoyed our time.

Amazing day tour
This was a really amazing day tour. The two sections of the wall we visited were beautiful and a nice contrast to each other. Leo was our guide and he was very informative and kind and was patient when we needed breaks. He is an amateur photographer and took some incredible pictures of us in the perfect locations, which he shared with us the day after the tour.

Jinshanling Great Wall
Jinshanling Great Wall — where the past meets the sky. No crowds, just wind and wonder. Our driver, Yu Yongtai, was the friendliest! We traveled with our entire extended family, and my dad spoke a little Chinese. Yu Yongtai was very welcoming and friendly. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience and the amazing trip.

Greatest Great Wall Watertown
Amazing little trip! Our driver Ryan was safe, speedy, and polite. He gave us good travel advice and some excellent suggestions for eating dinner after the trip.
Gubei Wtown, as they call themselves in English, was absolutely delightful. As a resort styled after an ancient town, it was both convenient, charming, and peppered with cats and cat drawings. Included in that is a giant balloon of a drunken cat that fell asleep on a wall, pretty funny!
The Simatai Great Wall area was just awesome, in the most literal sense of the word. The cable car ride up is a great view, and once you reach the wall you feel like you’re at the top of the Earth. The sense of windswept peace and heavy history is a mood one must experience to appreciate.
Overall, fantastic, strong 5/5.

Safe driver, great day :D
Our driver, Zhen Lihui, arrived early to our hotel and picked us up as soon as we were done. He also took care of buying the tickets as described on Viator. He was a safe and friendly driver, messaging the day before and all throughout the tour day. He drove my family in a large air conditioned van. Could not ask for anything more from a driver.
We really enjoyed being able to walk around at our own pace without a guide. There are many restaurant options, but don't plan on souvenir shopping. We also recommend purchasing the additional ticket in person to ride the boat back after The Wall. Bring your hat and walking shoes.
