Great wall - What an amazing experience exploring Mutianyu Great Wall with Mubus! Our guide John was full of energy and humor, making the bus ride fly by with his funny stories about ancient China and the Great Wall. We went during the New Year holiday season, and I was so worried about huge crowds—but surprisingly, there weren’t many people at all! The views of the wall were breathtaking, like something straight out of a postcard. Mubus’s rest area was a total lifesaver—warm seats, free hot drinks, and snacks that gave us the energy to keep hiking. John even took care of all the tickets for us, so we didn’t have to stand in any lines whatsoever. The whole trip was seamless and fun, zero stress from start to finish. I’ll definitely tell all my friends to book this tour when they visit Beijing!

Mutianyu fun times - Our guide John was amazing—he was patient, friendly, and had a wealth of knowledge about the wall’s history. He told us about the different dynasties that built and repaired the wall, which made walking it feel like a journey through time. The bus was punctual and comfortable, and the pickup was right in the city center. John helped us plan our hike based on our fitness levels, so no one felt left behind. The included buffet lunch was delicious—plenty of options, and it hit the spot after a few hours of climbing. The whole day was perfect—we had so much fun, and we’ll definitely be back for another tour!

John is very handsome - Just came back from Mutianyu Great Wall with Mubus, and it was hands down the best day trip in Beijing! Our guide John was a total gem, super knowledgeable about every watchtower and the stories behind them, not just boring dates. We took the direct bus on a chilly morning, and the ride was smooth with zero extra stops. John helped us with cablecar and toboggan tickets , which saved so much time. The best part? We arrived early enough to miss the big crowds, so we could take amazing photos without people blocking the view. Mubus also has a cozy rest area with free tea and snacks, such a nice touch after the hike. Everything was well-organized, from pickup to drop-off. I’ll definitely book with them again and ask for John!

Great day out at Mu Tian Yu! - Mubus’s Mutianyu Great Wall tour was so amazing and unforgettable, and our guide John was a huge part of that. He’s not just a guide—he’s a storyteller who brought the wall’s history to vivid life. He shared fascinating history of it, and that made every step along those ancient brick paths feel so much more meaningful. The bus was punctual, spotlessly clean and super cozy, which was perfect for our early morning ride out of the city. John even tailored our hiking route to match our group’s mixed fitness levels. The included buffet lunch was delicious too—tons of tasty options that hit the spot perfectly after a few hours of climbing. There was no rushing—just a relaxed, perfect day. Thank you so much, John and the whole Mubus team!

It's wonderful trip! I really enjoy the tour - Booking with Mubus was the best decision for our Great Wall visit. The hassle-free, direct transfer saved precious time. Our guide, Jily, made the ride informative with her engaging history lesson and essential tips. Understanding the difference between the adventurous east route (with its fun slide) and the photogenic west route helped us plan perfectly. The exclusive Mubus Family center was a welcome oasis. The free tea and light snacks were a thoughtful touch before exploration. The standout feature was undoubtedly the lunch buffet—both extensive and delicious, offering great value. Mubus delivers a premium, well-organized experience that perfectly balances education, convenience, and comfort. An absolute must-book for any visitor!

The Great Wall of China with Mubus ::) - Mubus’s Mutianyu Great Wall tour is such a solid pick for checking out this iconic spot, and our guide John made the day way more fun! He was super energetic and had a great sense of humor—his funny stories on the bus made the ride fly by. John sorted all the tickets and cable car stuff for us too, so we didn’t have to stress about a single thing. The rest area was a total lifesaver on that chilly day—warm seats and free hot drinks hit so different after hiking those steep steps. All in all, it was a perfect, chill day out. I’d totally book with Mubus again next time I’m in Beijing!

Mubus Travel Company delivered an unforgettable experience of the Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour - Oh my god, Mubus Travel Company offered and delivered a fantastic experience of Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour today. From the moment of booking this experience online to actually taking part in the tour every of the journey was fun, educational, entertaining, exhilarating in the best way. Jily was our tour guide. I commend her professionalism and a great sense of humor in addition to her expertise in guiding this tour. On our way to the Great Wall, she presented a comprehensive and engaging snapshot of the history of this World Wonder and its significance in the role of China’s development from its inception till today. She also explained the logistics of how to best experience the Great Wall. And of course, the actual experience of the Great Wall truly exceeded well beyond my imagination. I did both East and the West sections including the sky lift, the slide, and air tram (with additional payments and I’m glad I opted for those choices). I took many photos and of course, none of them would do any justice to such fascinating site. Before the tour started once we arrived at the Great Wall, I joined a couple of fellow travelers who booked a 30 min guided tour of the Easter n section. Our guide was Phoebe. Her interpretation was spotless with the visual aids of some of the historical photos of the Great Wall greatly added to my experience. I chose a package that included a buffet lunch. It had a good variety of dishes and fruits. Every dish had a different flavor and was so delicious. The roundtrip bus ride was also smooth and safe. The bus seat was very comfortable as well. Overall, this tour was a great value and more than that it delivered a memorable experience for me. Thank you Mubus Family for doing a great job. Keep up the great work.

Great Trip to Great Wall with Mubus - Our tour with Mubus and our guide, Jily, was outstanding. The convenience started right away with the easy meet-up at Dongzhimen Station. Jily was professional, warm, and waiting exactly where she said she'd be. The journey was both relaxing and informative. Jily’s narration on the bus was engaging, perfectly blending historical stories with useful advice for the day. She went above and beyond to assist our group, including helping us purchase various attraction tickets smoothly. We were also very impressed with the Mubus facilities. Their service center offered welcome free water and snacks. The included buffet lunch was a real treat—an extensive spread of tasty Chinese and Western dishes that exceeded all expectations. This tour offers exceptional value. The seamless organization, combined with Jily's excellent guidance and the great amenities, made for a perfect, stress-free day. I would not hesitate to book with them again. Thank you, Jily and Mubus!

Awesome Tour with MUBUS - We had a fantastic day trip with Mubus, and our guide Jily was a big part of that. Everything was incredibly well-organized from start to finish. The meeting point at Dongzhimen subway exit B was easy to find, and Jily was waiting right there. On the bus, Jily provided excellent commentary, sharing fascinating historical context and practical tips that really enhanced our visit. She was very helpful in getting tickets for everyone, saving us a lot of time and hassle. Mubus’s own tourist service center is a great touch. The complimentary water and refreshments were much appreciated. The highlight was the included lunch—a fantastic Chinese and Western buffet with a huge variety of delicious options. Overall, a very convenient, informative, and comfortable experience. Jily is a knowledgeable, attentive, and professional guide who clearly cares about her guests. Highly recommended!

I can highly recommend! - Just finished Mubus’s Mutianyu Great Wall tour, and we had a great visit! Our guide John was very nice and explained us the different hikes you can do at the wall as well as information about the routes on the wall itself. He knew all the best spots to take photos, and took a few group photos for us. We went on a weekday in winter, so the crowds were super small. We didn’t have to wait anywhere and the wall was not crowded at all. The bus ride was smooth and well organized. John handled all the tickets for the cablecar we purchased on the bus so we didn’t have to wait in any lines for them. There is a center of the company close the wall with free snacks and tee. The tickets for the wall were given out in the center. We also had our prebooked lunch there after the hike, which was great. The whole day was very well organized and stress-free, so I can highly recommend Mubus.
