Jinshanling Great Wall — where the past meets the sky. No crowds, just wind and wonder. Our driver, Yu Yongtai, was the friendliest! We traveled with our entire extended family, and my dad spoke a little Chinese. Yu Yongtai was very welcoming and friendly. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience and the amazing trip.
Would highly recommend this experience to visit the Great Wall. My guide Zhen Lihui was very friendly and accommodating. He arrived early and messaged me, so we were able to depart early, arrived with plenty of time to spare and explore the wall at sunrise. The car ride was also comfortable and I was able to sleep on the way there and on the way back. There was also a very friendly woman who has a souvenir shop at one of the Great Wall towers. She approached me and offered to take photos of me on the wall. I bought some hot tea and souvenirs from her. She told me I was the first person to pass by today, so I know for a fact Mr. Zhen Lihui got me there very early, which was my goal.
Great experience! Safe and very helpfull driver. Drove very relaxed and waited while we were up the wall.
A beautiful day to great wall. We had Xing Jian as our driver, he was very welcoming and gave us lots of extra information. We would recommend him to anyone
Outstanding Mutianyu trip. Our guide - QianFang, provided interesting facts and contexts of the China history, show us the hidden photo spots, and took excellent group pictures! The vehicle was clean and well-prepared, and his driving was safe and professional. He was also incredibly accommodating, fulfilling all requests including a local breakfast stop and flexible itinerary adjustments. Highly recommended—will definitely book QianFang again for my next Beijing visit!
Amazing experience. Sudbin was my driver and he was prompt, communicated well, and offered great service. Was able to visit the Great Wall on a flexible schedule and the whole trip was very smooth. Would recommend and 100% go with Sudbin again for any trip around Beijing.
I had a wonderful experience on this tour to Jinshanling. My driver, Gao Da Peng, was excellent from start to finish. He arrived early in the morning and was already waiting for us when we came out, which made the entire trip feel very smooth and well organized. During the drive, he was extremely helpful and shared interesting history and facts about the Great Wall and the Jinshanling section in particular. It made the journey much more meaningful because we were able to better understand what we were seeing when we arrived. He was also incredibly friendly and thoughtful throughout the day. He made sure we were comfortable, offered us food and drinks, and checked in regularly to see if we needed anything. Small gestures like that made the experience feel much more personal and relaxed. Jinshanling itself is absolutely worth visiting. It is one of the most beautiful and less crowded sections of the Great Wall, and the scenery is incredible. Having a private car made the trip much easier and more enjoyable, since the location is quite far from the city and public transportation can be complicated. Overall, this was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend both the Jinshanling section of the Great Wall and booking a private transfer. If you get the chance to have Gao Da Peng as your driver, you will be in very good hands. 这次去金山岭长城的行程非常棒，我的司机 高大鹏 从头到尾都非常专业和贴心。早上他很早就到了，并且已经在等我们，让整个行程一开始就非常顺利、轻松。 在路上，他也给我们讲了很多关于长城以及金山岭这一段的历史和背景知识，让这次旅行变得更加有意义。当我们真正走到长城上时，对看到的一切也有了更多的理解。 他人也非常友好和热情，一直很关心我们的情况，主动给我们提供食物和饮料，也会随时询问我们是否需要帮助。这些细节让整个体验感觉非常舒服、很有人情味。 金山岭长城本身绝对值得一去，这里风景非常壮观，而且游客比很多其他长城段落要少得多。如果想去这里，我非常建议预订私人包车，因为从北京过去距离比较远，公共交通也不是特别方便。 总的来说，这是一次非常棒的体验。我非常推荐去金山岭长城，也强烈建议选择私人接送。如果能遇到 高大鹏 作为司机，那你一定会有一个非常愉快的旅程。
Li Qingshan, thank you very much. He arrived on time and gave an excellent recommendation for places to visit and delicious food. We were very impressed.
Zhen Lihui was an excellent driver! He picked us up on time, communicated clearly with us throughout the day, provided us with good recommendations, and gave us interesting information about China and the Great Wall. He also helped us to pick a good Peking duck dinner location for after our day at the Great Wall. I highly recommend Zhen Lihui as a driver and guide if you are visiting China.
Mr. Sun communicated very well via WhatsApp, he sent us the message a day before. The journey was with a nice car very comfortable. He had a translator so we had no problems with the communication.
