Mutianyu Great Wall, Summer Palace Private Tour All Inclusive

We arranged a day tour for the Great Wall and Summer Palace with Mark. Our guide was Marco and he was amazing, friendly, informative about anything Beijing. We had a private driver and Marco as our guide. The van was new and made travel easy to wall and Beijing traffic. Mark had also arranged VIP parking, so faster to the wall and less people. Go to wall as early in the morning as you can. Marco is just a genuine good person who will make your day(s) tour fun. No taking you to shops to buy expensive souvenirs either. Marco also arranged Kung Fu show for us, he personally came with driver took us to the show , and some how got us upgraded to VIP section. We were then picked up from the show as well. The theater was not fancy, but the show was great! I also recommend hiring Mark for just private driver day service as well, getting taxis in Beijing not so easy, if time is limited.

We had a great day at the Chinese Wall and the Summer Palace in nice weather in the beginning of March. The driver Sun Quian picked us up in town and drove for nearly two hours to Mutianyu. It was a quiet day and not too many other tourists. We bought tickets for the bus, the cable wagon and the trip to the wall. This was not included. It was very fascinating to be at the wall. A once in the life time experience. Afterwards the trip to the summer palace was also very nice. It is a beautiful garden well worth seeing. On the way back to the hotel we saw the birds nest from the Olympic Games. It was interesting to talk to the driver who was very friendly, but could have been better in English.

My nine year old son and I did this trip together while visiting Beijing. Bruce was friendly, helpful, and informative - he gave us some great history lessons about the wall and the summer palace. Our driver was safe and also friendly. I’d book with this company again.
