Exceptional Great Wall Experience with Jack - We had an outstanding experience with our driver, Jack, on our visit to the Great Wall of China. He picked us up promptly and got us to the wall early, which meant we were able to enjoy it before the crowds arrived — a real luxury. Jack truly gave us the VIP treatment, driving us directly to the beginning of the wall, which saved us both time and hassle. His English was excellent, and he was incredibly informative throughout the day, sharing interesting facts and answering all our questions with ease. At our request, Jack even took us to a fantastic local restaurant where we were able to try authentic regional dishes — a real highlight of the day. His flexibility, local knowledge, and professionalism made the whole experience seamless and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organised, insightful, and truly tailored experience at the Great Wall.

Great value and even better guide - Our driver/guide Joe was fantastic. Very promt at PEK pick-up point and very good english. Conversations were vibrant and while the guide normally take you to the tram for the great wall and meet you after, he joined us on our adventure and took many photos for us. Highly recommend the trip and this driver

Mr Ping - fantastic trip to the Wall! - Mr Ping was fantastic! We were just doing the Great Wall, but he knew where to go and when to avoid big crowds (not so easy on the local Labour Day holiday weekend). He's super-friendly without being exhausting, and readily adapted to our needs and preferences. Good command of English, no need for translation apps, and gave us a great perspective on the local (non-media-driven) realities of what is a very complex part of the world. We would absolutely use him again and recommend to friends.

Lilian is the best! - We very kindly greeted at 6am by our driver, Lilian, who had water and bananas prepared for us. She explained everything so nicely and helped us get the tickets for the cable car/toboggan and made pictures of us. She was really enthusiastic and we enjoyed every second with Lilian! Would book again!

Great great wall tour with Matthew - Matthew is an awesome guide. Made the entry process as easy as possible (would be chaos without good guide). Go early. Mathews friendly attitude and knowledge of the wall makes for a great experience. The tea ceremony at end of tour was fantastic. Thank you Matthew.

The tour operator... - The tour operator contacted us early and asked to reschedule the trip and leave 6 am in the morning. I am glad we did, it was a long holiday and by arriving early, we saved hours in traffic and there were virtually no lines. The driver was very helpful, service minded and he took good care of us.

Great driver, super organization - We liked this excursion. Our driver was David, he was waiting for us in the hotel lobby, brought water and bananas for the trip to the Wall. He managed to get us straight to the start of the cable car and organized tickets during the drive so that we were on the wall within minutes. On the return we stopped at a local restaurant and had a great lunch. David's English was great and we could communicate without issues. We recommend this tour if you want to visit independently but do not want the hassle of organizing everything. Great value (left Beijing at 8.00am and were back at 4.00pm spending about 2.5 hrs on the wall).
