Tour guide Harry was informative and so kind! It was rainy and limited visibility so we spent less time than we had planned. Harry dropped some of us off at the Forbidden City and gave us great instructions on the layout. He took the rest of the family back to the hotel. Great experience!
We had a 8 hour layover in Beijing. Everyone told us that we would risk missing our flight if we tried to visit the Mutianyu Great Wall, but we decided to give it our best shot. We downloaded the DiDi app, which is like China's Uber, and went on a hour long ride to the base of the Great Wall. Once we got there, we had to get on another shuttle to get to the gate. Then, we got on a ski lift, which felt incredibly unsafe and risky, that took us to the top of the wall. It was early in the morning and there was no one else there. We took our pictures, walked along the wall, and marveled at how beautiful the view and the wall itself was. The wall was covered with millipedes by the way, if you're scared. They've installed a slide that you can go down to get to the bottom of the Wall, but that looked too unsafe to try. We were able to just barely make it back in time to catch our flight. It was so worth it!
Highly recommended. Harry and our guide Lilian, they were always on the lookout for whatever we might need. They passed us at the Hotel on time. We had no problem and were made to feel very comfortable and calm throughout the Tour. We went in the month of December/January, where he fried this fort, in the van we were heated with water and information of the marble. All very kind. The cost of the Tour is worth it. Highly recommended. If you have a chance, you won't regret it.
I strongly recommend this tour to anyone who has a limited amount of time and Chinese is not your native language. From the first inquiry email we sent Harry, he demonstrated extreme professionalism and punctuality. His communication and guidance leading up to our visit were top notch. Harry provided us a full day tour itinerary and sorted out all of our tickets and entry details prior to our arrival. So once we arrived, it was a simple pick up and off we went on our full day of site seeing and playing tourist. Harry coordinated trips to the following: -Tiananmen square -Imperial palace -Forbidden city -Authentic Chinese noodles for lunch -Great Wall (W/ tobogan ride down) Throughout the entire tour Harry shared his knowledge on the sites and offered to take multiple photographs for us. Overall, it was an incredible experience and I strongly recommend this tour.
My visit to the Mutianyu Great Wall tour was an excellent experience. My driver and tour guide Harry was kind, helpful and accommodating. I fully recommend him.
Harry picked us up in our hotel in Beijing for a day trip to the Great Wall (Mutianyu) and the Summer Palace. We left early in the morning to avoid traffic and lot of tourists at the Wall. Harry speaks fluent English and drives safely. His van is super clean and very comfortable with leader seats. Harry makes you feel great during the whole day trip and explains you a lot about the sightseeing. He organized all the tickets needed for you, so that you avoid queueing. Harry is a great professional. We definitely highly recommend HARRY to anyone willing to visit the Great Wall!!
I had a 12h layover in Beijing, arriving 5 in the morning and leaving 5 in the afternoon. I got in contact with Harry and he took me on a private tour to the Great Wall. Pick up at airport on time and about 1½ hour drive to the wall, we got there just when they opened so I was the first one up that day. Truly amazing to be on the wall more or less on your won for the first 30 minutes. Weather was hot and humid this day so I only spend 2h up on the wall before returning. Harry was waiting for me when I got down again and drove me back to the airport. Harry speaks English well and took me safely to the wall and back to the airport in his mini van. I can definitely recommend booking a trip with Harry if you need a private driver in Beijing.
I am strongly recommend HARRY for you personal guide trip. Very impressive tour guide that I have ever met in China. He is very friendly and informative. He provides us all good recommendation and indeed he treats us like a family members. I am very appreciate his hospitality and generous. He has a finest driving skill which you feel safe, besides the car is big and the seats are comfortable. I do not hesitate to recommend HARRY to the others to feel my best experience in BEIJING WOODY LIM
Our flight arrived very late and our driver, Mrs. Jinling, was super understanding that we had to push back the time a couple of times and patient with two little kids who only had three hours sleep! She took great care of us and we were able to see the beauty of the Great Wall with no hassle! Great way to end our three weeks in China! I definitely recommend this tour if you have small kids!
We found Harry to be an excellent guide when we booked his private tour to the Mutianyu Great Wall. Harry impressed us with his punctuality on the morning of our trip and was very friendly and willing to go that extra mile to make us happy and satisfied. We had a great conversation along the way and Harry was knowledgeable about his tour-related topics and places of attractions. My wife and I had a great trip and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We would not hesitate to recommend Harry to anyone who is looking for a great holiday.
