Great Great Wall experience - Jimmy was great in meeting with us and taking us to the Great Wall. His suggestions that we start out early and that we take the open cable cars to the Wall were spot on as there were far fewer people on the Wall when we arrived compared to how many there were when we were returning from the closed cable car terminal area. Once on the Wall, he explained to us the best direction to take and why and left to wait for us. Being of more mature age, we were tired on the way back and the tobaggon ride queue was long, so we kept him waiting close to an hour on our return to the souvenir shops area. However, he had no complaints. He suggested a Chinese restaurant where we had a late lunch. Have to admit that we were not very impressed with the food, but that was most probably due to our choice of the dish. Returned to the hotel late due to an accident on the highway, but he was always cheerful. He is also a very careful and concientious driver. Nice, clean and spacious vehicle. For those of you wondering why the tour guide does not accompany you during the walk on the Wall, clearly they would not survive for long if they took everyday the same walk that the tourists did :) as it consists of climbing and descending many stairs of differing heights as well as slopes up and down. It is likely that even very athletic people cannot hope to do that every day as a job. Thank you Jimmy for an enjoyable experience.

Amazing Experience with Jimmy - "We had the most incredible experience visiting the Great Wall of China, all thanks to our fantastic tour operator, Jimmy. From the very start, his punctuality was impressive, ensuring that we made the most of our day. Jimmy’s deep knowledge of the history and significance of the Great Wall made the tour not just enjoyable but truly enlightening. He shared fascinating stories and insights that we would have otherwise missed. Beyond that, Jimmy was an extremely safe and responsible driver, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the journey without any worries. What stood out the most, though, was his warmth and friendly approach. He made us feel comfortable and welcomed, treating us more like friends than just tourists. His genuine passion for sharing his culture was evident, and it truly enhanced our experience. We highly recommend Jimmy to anyone looking for a memorable and well-rounded tour!"

Safe driver & knowledgeable tour guide - Outstanding-Jimmy proactively communicated before our tour to arrange start time and obtain our details to book our tickets. He came to our hotel ahead of time and his car was perfect for the trip. Jimmy has great conversational English, making it easy to ask questions to learn about all the amazing Chinese history. He delivered on every front. We highly recommend Jimmy.

Very impressive! - Jimmy Zhang was our guide. Thank you Jimmy for taking care. He speaks very good English. Gets all the tickets in advance so you don't have to wait anywhere. Excursion takes about 7 hours 2h outward , 3h on site, 2h return. Walking on the wall is already very strenuous as it is very steep and uneven. It is therefore best to book the chairlift as well.

Perfect host for visiting Wall with family - We decided to book flights wirh a long stopover in Beijing (Capital Airport) located north of city specifically to visit the Great Wall of China with our kids. Jimmy was the perfect host, easy to communicate with and you don't need to worry about the logistics at all! He is easy to find in front of cafe at exit (also has good coffee). Jimmy gets your Wall tickets in advance as well. He parked his clean minivan as close as possible to the airport exit. When we got to the Wall area he discussed all the options and costs regarding chairlifts, gondolas, walking, and found out the real closing times from the people running it (we were there late afternoon on a Chinese long weekend) so we were able to do the chairlift up and toboggan down (which was a real highlight) while maximising Wall time. Then, we went to a great restaurant at the base and had dinner with Jimmy watching the sunset before he drove us back to the airport (our flight was 1am). This experience will be a family highlight! Thank you Jimmy for this great memory!

Easy, friendly and great organized trip to the wall - Jimmy was a great and super friendly Tour-Guide who picked us up at our hotel and organized the trip to the wall perfectly. For us it was super easy because Jimmy helped to buy the tickets and showed us the best way up to the wall. As we arrived on top of the wall he gave us free time and we could discover the wall in our own speed. Xiexie! We can highly recommend his tour and will be surely back next time in Beijing.

Wonderful experience - We had a very nice day with Jimmy. Contact with him was easy, and he picked us up on time. We were lucky that it was a very calm and sunny day on the wall, but that was also helped by the early pick up time. He dropped us off at a convenient location. Would definitely go with Jimmy again!
