Great trip and great guide great value.Excellent chinese style lunch as well.Well worth doing the gondola as there is still a few steps and you can do as much of the wall as you want

Excellent guide Thomas and truly memorable day. We went early and had this part of the wall to ourselves - glorious! We did the most strenuous climb; often up a 45 degree angle of steep steps. I felt so grateful we took it easy and weather was good with no wet steps. Views were tremendous- worth every aching muscle the next day!

We were very fortunate because our group tour turned out to be a private tour (we were the only two people scheduled for that day). The tour guide was excellent and he helped us plan our itinerary for the rest of our stay in Beijing. The Great Wall was amazing and the Chinese lunch was delicious. We were very pleased with the experience!

I ended up being the only person on this tour. My guide / driver Thomas was SUPERB. He was on time, friendly, flexible, and knowledgeable. This section of the wall was scenic and uncrowded. You take a chair lift up, and take a luge down (optional - it was a blast) Lunch was delicious, the tea ceremony tolerable, and the drive-byes of the Olympic stadium / cube / etc interesting. A big thumbs up!

This was the highlight of our time in Beijing. I would recommend this part of the wall to anyone as it is a lot quieter. It is however, very steep in parts and my legs were shaking for a long time afterwards|!!!! However, it is an experience not to be missed and the views were amazing, helped of course by near perfect weather!! A great day out , the guide, Jason was very informative and when we requested to be taken back via the Birds Nest Stadium he didn't hesitate to oblige. A great day's tour.

This side of great wall were more challenging then the Badailing side. And it has the cable car to the entrance of the great wall and the sliding car all way down back.

My tour was great. The wall was not as crowded as the wall at Badaling. Make sure you take the tobaggan ride down. Very exciting!
