Great Wall in one day 10/10

Had a great time if you wanna visit the Greatwall all in one day trip from Shanghai. The traveling was great in the bullet train. Summer our tour guide was amazing, she was extremely helpful. She helped us with my mother who just had spinal surgery a couple of months before our trip. She was able to accommodate her needs and still was able to show is everything we needed to see in a short time.

Shanghai to Beijing Great Wall visit

This was an incredible experience, very well organised by Sunny and our tour guide, Coco was excellent and very helpful. It was complicated to get from our hotel in Shanghai to the Great Wall in Beijing and we could not have planned and done this ourselves, but Sunny organised everything like clockwork and gave instructions for every step of it. Every aspect of the trip was excellent.👍👍

A Wonderful Family-Friendly Tour with Summer

We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide, Summer. She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing China's rich history with us. Her explanations of the different Chinese dynasties and how they were connected to the construction and significance of the Great Wall were both engaging and informative. We learned so much and truly enjoyed every moment of the tour. Beyond her excellent knowledge, Summer took great care of our family throughout the trip. She was attentive, thoughtful, and always willing to help. She also took the initiative to recommend several family-friendly places for us to visit, which made our trip even more enjoyable. One of the highlights was her recommendation and assistance in booking a local Peking duck restaurant. It was less touristy, very reasonably priced, and the food was absolutely delicious—one of the best meals we had during our stay. Thank you, Summer, for making our trip so memorable. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an informative, enjoyable, and well-cared-for travel experience in China.

Amazing Great Wall Experience, don't miss out!

Although I was hesitant to take this 18 hours tour from Shanghai, I'm so glad I didn't miss out on this amazing Great Wall experience! From the hotel pickup to drop off, everything was perfectly planned. My guide Summer was excellent. She went over some history on the way to the wall and helped me get extra time along the wall by picking up late lunch for the car ride back. Later, she even dropped me off inside the station and helped me order dinner for my train ride. Such a sweet, caring person!!! Highly recommend this tour.

Had an absolutely great...

Had an absolutely great time. Sunny helped navigate and set up the whole experience with ease, and I was paired with my Tour Guide, Helen, who was absolutely fantastic. She aside from being able to structure the tight schedule made sure that it was an enjoyable one and was beyond knowledgeable and kind in sharing so much historical information and facts about Beijing, The Great Wall, and China overall. Would definitely recommend this to anyone and would love to work with them again on a future trip to the Beijing area. So grateful because I definitely would not have been able to coordinate this otherwise without them. Such a wonderful memory.
