Amazing day thanks to our fantastic guide Lucy Yue and our great driver Liu Chao - We had an amazing day with our fantastic guide, Lucy Yue, and our great driver, Liu Chao. Lucy contacted me yesterday to confirm our pick up arrangement. Today she and Mr. Liu picked us up at our hotel as planned. We drove to Longqing gorge first to avoid the morning crowd at the Badaling Great Wall. It worked out well as there were very few people at the gorge. We walked through the dragon and had a magical boat ride through the tall mountains. Beautiful scenery! The cable car was closed so we didn’t get to ride it. Next we had a nice lunch at a place of our choosing. Last, we went to the Badaling Great Wall. On our way there, Lucy gave us the history. When we got there, she expertly guided us through the process to get to the wall and took lots of pictures of us on the wall. The crowd was leaving as we were coming so the order we followed was perfect. I didn’t know the main attractions in Beijing are closed on Mondays so the wall is more crowded than normal. If you get Lucy Yue and Liu Chao you will have a great day. Lucy is a lot of fun and very accommodating. Mr. Liu was a great driver in a nice car.

Great day out - We had a great day out. The entrance to the gorge was fascinating with a cascade of water from the dam and a huge dragon disguising the elevator that took us to the top. Saw some great scenery on the boat trip. The Great Wall was, indeed, great. Fantastic scenery and a unique destination. We felt very privileged to be there. Lucy was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide who spoke excellent English. The car she had arranged was very comfortable and that added to the feeling of being well looked after. Lunch was very good in a local Chinese cafe/restaurant.

Longqing Gorges and Great Wall - Our Anson Guide was efficient and nice. During the road trip he explained in detail the history of Beijing and the Great Wall. Our visit began with the boat ride inside the Longqing Gorges where we admired a breathtaking and unprecedented panorama for us. We then stopped at a local (and not touristy) restaurant where thanks to Anson’s suggestions we tasted some of the typical dishes (including Peking duck). Finally we visited the Great Wall, and thanks again to Anson, we reached a less touristy and uncrowded place from which we enjoyed a breathtaking view of the wall. We absolutely recommend the experience!

Fantastic Experience - Edward and our driver, Mr. Sun were amazing! They brought us to an excellent lunch, and made the entire experience so enjoyable and easy. These places are surreal experiences, and you’ll want Edward and Mr. Sun to make it possible!

Fantastic time with Sophie - From the beginning to the end this trip has been a blast! Especially with travelling with a baby. Sophie has been the best guide. She was very patient and super helpful she even helped us carrying the baby at some moments. At all times she explained us in perfect English the history of the places we visited. The 1st part was very natural and spiritual in the Chinese country side. (2h from Beijing center). Very peaceful and astonishing. 2nd part was just epic at the Great wall. She even chose a less crowded place so we could just enjoy at our pace. To finish this exhausting but perfect day the brought us to a restaurant to a local restaurant. Never had better Chinese food in my life. If i had to do it again i wouldn't hesitate! Thank you so much Sophie we will always remember out trip.

A great guide very knowledgeable! - Edward was very knowledgeable and very willing to customize the trip to our needs. We had three boys (9, 10 & 12 years old) and he kept us on track to be able to see everything we wanted. He kept it interesting for all of us. Great guide!

Mike was a great guide... - Mike was a great guide and very knowledgeable and easy company. He made good recommendations about going early which meant our trip was easy and we avoided the worse of the crowds. And Badging is very busy. The only thing I would say is boat ride is only 20 mins so a bit short ...

Incredible Tour - The weather was fantastic! We enjoyed the scenery on the boat ride and the views of the Great Wall were incredible. Edward was a good host and spoke good English. He took plenty of photos for us and we enjoyed the lunch and dumplings that he ordered. We recommend this tour.
