Shane was a great tour guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable and taught us a lot of the history of the Great Wall. Make sure to take the early tours to avoid a lot of the crowds and to beat the heat! It was a must see bucket list item while in Beijing :)
Shane did a great job showing us this amazing place. He was very knowledgeable and helpful making sure our tour went well and helped us beat the crowded periods. Well done. This is a very special place.
We spend a lot of time deciding which Wall site to visit and this was the best decision. The wall is amazing and the chair lift option and toboggan down was so unique and fun. Go in the morning as it got busier and hotter. Long queues to get in when we were leaving and no traffic getting to the site (1 hr 20 min) Request Guo Frank as the driver/guide. He was so helpful in showing us the right way and getting us in. He also gave us lots of space and time to enjoy it ourselves. This is absolute must do in China!!
Shane was amazing. I highly recommend him for a most comfortable, informative, and fun experience at the Great Wall
Me and my sister went on this tour together. Our tour guide, Shane, was so welcoming, nice and knowledgeable about the history og the Great Wall! I really recommend booking this trip early or you want good photos or just want to avoid the crowds. Shane helped us with the best places to take pictures, which was super nice! He also customized the trip by how challenging you want the tour to be, as some parts of the wall are very steep! Overall a great experience and I would really recommend booking!
Amazing experience, sandy is so amazing and showed us everything so well. We really enjoyed our time.
Very nice guide! Shane, he has great knowledge of the Wall and Beijing. Very helpful and pleasant drive, very easy to talk to. Highly recommended!!
We had an excellent time! We booked a private tour - the operator communicated well beforehand and our guide Melodie was very informative and accommodating. We decided to take the cable car up to save on time and arrived on the wall at watchtower 14. We are an active family of 5 with 3 teenagers who saw hiking all the way to watchtower 1 (a steep climb toward the end!) and then back to 14 as a fun challenge. Melodie accommodated our idea and made sure we had fun along the way. She offered us a lot of historical context during the drive from Beijing and along the hike. Melodie spoke excellent English and encouraged our kids- who are learning Chinese- to practice speaking and reading as well.
With LiLi we had a fantastic guide. LiLi is very knowledgeable about the Great Wall and about Chinese history in General. She guided us past queues swiftly and she showed the wall in a nice sequence, saving the best for the last. Not less important, she is also good company.
Had a private Great Wall tour with Lili who was fantastic. Very knowledgeable on Beijing in general and the Great Wall itself, and very accomodating on personal preferences around how long to spend at the wall. Also was happy to provide food suggestions for Beijing to save me from queueing for tourist traps!
