It was so fantastic starting this trip at such a quiet part of the wall. Danny was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, plus he had good English and was easy to understand. Would definitely recommend this trip.

I'd like to echo all the other positive reviews. I found this company through the suggested guided tours from Lonelyplanet, and I'm very satisfied we (me plus two friends)chose this. They handled all the transportation, picking us up from our hotel in the the middle of Beijing, with no problems there or on the way. Our tour guide was Dewitt, and he was wonderful, sharing lots of great information, and just generally positive throughout the whole tour. Of course, the hike on the Wall was excellent as well. Absolutely beautiful. Words can't express it. We started off with essentially no other tourists on the Wall (we went early August, with great weather). As we got to the end destination, there were a few more, but nothing overwhelming like you see in some pictures.
And to perfectly cap it all off, we had a fantastic and large lunch at a local place with local Chinese food. From beginning to end, just a wonderful experience at a one in a kind place.

I could not ask for a better more patient guide than Yaxing. He is awesome and very fluent in English! The difficulty level of the hike is difficult! But our guide was very patient with me and guided me so that despite my difficulties I would still enjoy the scenery! Thank you so much Yaxing!

Thank you for this awesome day. Had a great time and a lot of fun with our guide Cheney. Awesome route on the Great Wall of China. Not crowded at all. Water was included in our tour. He also offered us some hiking sticks. Cheney also took a lot of amazing pictures from us. He was really friendly all the time. After the hike he took us to a restaurant where we had lunch which was also included in our tour. Was totally worth it!!!! Thank you for everything!!

First time, 2 days, 1 night on the Great Wall. Definitely a re-do with Great Wall Adventure Club. Day 1: Jiankou-Mintanyu-- 8 miles and 140 flights of stairs! #walking poles & hightop hiking boots! Day 2: Gubeikou - Jinshanling-- 5 miles and 200 flights of stairs! The guide was patient and very knowledgeable, we felt we were in good hands. However, our guide tried to avoid paying the wall & gondola fees and made us walk- Until I caught on and reminded him our trip was 'all inclusive'. Also, make sure he doesn't make you hike TO the wall. First day we hiked 1.25 hours up the mountain to reach the great wall. If you don't see the wall when the driver drops you off, that means your hiking to it!! I want to spend my time ON the wall. I'm still giving the company a great review, as I would use them again. Recommend you make things clear up front.
