About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Swanthorn0 contributionsworth spending extra £Very well organised trip. Our driver, Bruce, spoke very good English and was very helpful. The trip went very smoothly and we did not waste any time on waiting for the transportation.Written 1 December 2024
- Jeff T0 contributionsAmazing experience hiking the unrestored sections of the Great WallWe had an amazing experience, hiking the unrestored sections of the Great Wall, where we started in Jiankou. If you truly want to experience the wall, don't do the tourist, fully restored sections. Do the remote, unrestored sections. There were no people, only amazing views and the wall as it was originally constructed. It does require a moderate level of fitness however. Our guide Michael was excellent also. Very knowledgeable, as well as personable. Highly recommend this tour to truly experience the wall as it should be.Written 29 November 2024
- Q3221FSjamesl0 contributionsExcellent private tour - highly recommendedMy guide Mr Gui was pleasant, has a decent English proficiency and possesses excellent photography skills! He and this tour group are truly the best. I highly recommend this private tour.Written 27 November 2024
- jeejap20240 contributionsGreat Servicewe 6 of us went to SHANGHAI, BEIJING and the service from the company it was remarkable, especially the guides they provide us in both cities, they are very helpful and very friendly and detailing of the sites was awesome, If anybody plans to visit these places we all are suggesting these company only, the Owner of the Company MS VIOLET is very helpful with the questions I asked before I leave to their cities.(ANYTIME), and their package was not bad either compare with others alsoWritten 26 November 2024
- catherinemU9099GV0 contributionsGreat day trip out of BeijingWonderful day outing from Beijing. My driver, Mr. Guo, was very accommodating, polite and a careful driver. The only unexpected thing is that I needed to pay for the cable car lift from the base up to the Great Wall (about $20). Not a problem but just something to be noted in the description.Written 25 November 2024

Our driver was Bruce. The driver is not a tour guide for the Wall, but he does lots of other things; arranging the entry tickets, helping you with locating lunch and snacks, and answering questions along the drive. We went to Mutianyu first, leaving at 8 am from our hotel in Beijing. Mutianyu was not crowded when we got there, but began to be crowded two hours later when we came back down. We had a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. Then he drove us to Huanghuacheng, where there were very few people. It was lovely to walk along the wall and then return along the bank of the reservoir. It is a bit expensive to have your own driver but you aren’t on a strict schedule and you get door to door service.

My driver, Bruce, was prompt and very friendly and helpful plus very good English. Huanghuacheng was first stop for about 2hrs at the Wall. Nice views and a good section of the (Ming period) wall. Hills and lakes here. Not very busy. Then on to Mutianyou for another 2hrs at the wall. This was enough time for me as I only did the right-hand half of the Wall, as you enter. I also got the optional chairlift up to the Wall (I didn't want to spend energy getting there). Some parts are very steep but well worth the climb to the top. Not very busy. I did not have the energy to do the other half of the Wall. You would probably need another 1 to 1.5 hours there do do whole thing (about 3-4 hrs in total, depending on fitness). You can walk back down or get chairlift or (like me) take the toboggan run. That was fun. Less crowded than Badaling.

Kong always was in contact with me. He provided me all the information wich I asked him. He picked us up by comfortable private car. The trip was so comfortable and organized. The Great Wall was just amazing. The trip was very exciting and nice. Definitely will book the excursions with him for my next visit to China.

Our guide, Kevin, was professional and courteous from pick-up at the Conrad through dropping us back off at the hotel. He was informative yet allowed us to drive the conversation the entire trip. For the first section of the wall we went to a portion off the beaten path that was managed by the local community. Kevin navigated is the entire way and handled getting us up the wall. As this involved talking/paying two men standing at a fence at the base of the wall and then leading us up the hillside, climbing, stairs and a ladder, he was incredibly helpful. This section was far less touristy and exactly what we were looking for. He allowed us time to explore on the wall by ourselves. When we were done, he drove us to Mutianyu and assisted with purchasing our tickets and for the bobsled, touristy but fun. We set a time to meet back up at the base of the Wall and we were left to explore on our own.
Kevin was an excellent guide. Open to conversation, yet not the least bit intrusive on our vacation experience.

Is there time at Huanghuacheng to walk the wall AND do the boat ride?
