Amazing Great Wall Day!

In the morning of our tour, Sunny and Mr Xu were right on time to pick us up. Sunny is very knowledgeable as she explained about the history of the Great Wall. She knows all the short shortcuts to use to get around Great Wall. It was stress free knowing that we are in the save hands of her. It's a must -do when you are in Beijing! Thank you Sunny and Mr.Xu!

Great Wall with the family.

We booked our tour within a week of our visit and we were really pleased that we went with Bruce, our guide. Very clear communication, collected us in our hotel reception exactly on time. Comfortable vehicle, with water and sweets. Bruce accompanied us thru the Mutianyu entry process and then up on the chairlift to the wall. What an experience, so amazing. Bruce was full of knowledge and could answer any questions we asked. Would highly recommend this tour.

What a great day. Our host, Nancy, was knowledgeable and attentive. She knew what she was talking about and explained the history and Chinese culture in a very interesting way. Her English was excellent, which made her the perfect guide for our group.
