What to expect

Enjoy a hassle-free small-group experience to one of the Great Wonders. No visit to Beijing is complete without walking along the legendary Great Wall of China, so head out early morning to beat the crowds, escape the busy city streets and trek along to the watchtowers while learning about some of the Wall’s myths and legends from your local guide!

First, you'll reach Mutianyu, a mostly restored, spectacular section of the Wall. It's a small hike but it's worth it. You'll be rewarded with amazing views of the wall as it stretches through the surrounding countryside. There are a lot of steep steps to climb, so we invite you to tackle the Great Wall at your own pace as you soak up the magnitude of this feat of engineering. You can choose to take the cable car up (at your own expense) if you wish to avoid the climb. It's up to you how you want to get down. You can head back the way you came, or, if you fancy a different perspective, take the cable car or toboggan back down.

Unlike other Great Wall tours in Beijing, we focus on giving you an awesome, authentic experience. That means you won't visit any shops or factories along the way – it’s all Great Wall all the time, except for a delicious local lunch that awaits you before heading back to the city.

To take your experience to the next level you can choose to have a private guide, just for you and your group! Simply select the option you prefer at checkout.
