Family hike on Great Wall with amazing views

Published on Aug, 2024

We had such an amazing hike with Peter, who was an excellent guide. He tailed everything to our family’s needs as we were travelling with our 3 kids ages 10 and 14. Peter shared so much interesting facts and history and was so friendly and engaging with the children. The hike itself was breathtaking with views of the ancient Great Wall winding through forests and mountains. I cannot recommend highly enough

Incredible Great Wall tours with the best guide

Published on May, 2022

I participated to several private tours with French friends and our guide James, as I am living in Beijing for four years now. Without James, we would never had the opportunity to explore non restored parts of Geat Wall. We followed him in beautiful wild scenery, sometimes challenging, far from the boring public crowded sections of the Wall. Each tour with James was magic, fun and friendly. I would have done even more tours if Covid had not hit the Country. I highly recommand our guide James, and I Thanks him so much for sharing HIS Great Wall with us !

Best part of my trip to Beijing

Published on Nov, 2020

I took a solo trip to Beijing in November and booked a private hiking tour. My guide James was super nice, knowledgeable, and helpful, and the hike was spectacular! We were the only ones on the wall the entire time. After the hike we had a delicious lunch at a local inn and the private driver dropped me back off at my hotel. Next time I’m in Beijing I’ll be booking another tour and asking for James as my guide!

Authentic Great Wall Private Tour Without All The Tourists

Published on Jan, 2020

I am so glad I booked this trip, eventhough it is more expensive than other things offered. A friend who lived in Beijing recommended this section of the wall as an 'off the beaten track' alternative to really get a sense of the wall without the tourism. First point you need to be fit, and in my opinion need hiking boots, the terrain is challenging on both the reconstructed and unreconstructed parts, it is very steep but my guide Jack provided crampons ( for the snowy sections) and a walking pole. He is extremely experienced and patient and was excellent company. He has a great sense of humour. We had quite a few laughs along the trek. Second point is you wont believe how incredible the view is from all angles and NO ONE ELSE in your photos. Its a miracle! It felt authentic and calm. The meal at the end is abundant and excellent. A good safe driver ( which can be hit and miss in China) . Well worth the investment. Xie Xie to Jack for making my last day in Beijing one I'll never forget.

Best activity in Beijing - nothing even close

Published on Nov, 2019

This was the highlight of our trip to Beijing. We spent 4 hours hiking on the Great Wall listening to Peter (our guide) detail all the history. Peter was a great guide. Apart from knowing the trek, he kept the pace reasonable, took breaks so we could enjoy the view, and was great with the camera. We had the entire section of wall all to ourselves. There were literally no other tourists. The peace and quiet while on the wall were a stark contrast to the hordes of tourists at the Forbidden City. Lunch at the end of the hike was fantastic. Family style Chinese food at a local restaurant - yes please. Peter made some great noodle and main dish recommendations. This tour was the best, but I feel that people reading need to know about the following before booking: This is a real hike - my Fitbit measured 7 miles - and it is a lot of elevation change. You don’t need to be in great shape but just understand that this is not a leisurely stroll in the park. See the pics below. Dress appropriately - don’t show up in the wrong attire. Follow the directions that the tour operator has posted - especially when it comes to foot wear and clothes. Take all the water your tour guide offers. I thought to myself “hey no big deal, just one bottle will be fine” Wrong. Take as many as you can carry. Bring a backpack. Do not bring kids below the age 12. With that said I would recommend this tour over any other tour in Beijing. This tour is worth twice what we paid. 5 stars. Peter was the best!!!
