If it were possible to give a higher star rating for this tour lead by Adele, I would!   During the booking process, we were asked if we had any special dietary restrictions. In as simple of terms as possible, I conveyed that my spouse had undergone stomach surgery and had to follow a very specific diet. I provided a few examples of foods that would be permissible and left it at that—planning, as we do for all of our travels, to have plenty of items on hand that fit the dietary restrictions.   Adele made a special point to kindly and politely learn more about my spouse’s needs. She expanded her understanding of the condition, and she had a special (and delicious I might add) lunch curated to fit our needs. The level of care and concern that she exhibited was exceptional!   Adele and the driver arrived at our hotel early, and she greeted us in the lobby with a smile and warm welcome. The car was clean, well kept, and comfortable. Conversation with Adele was easy, friendly, and warm. As we zipped along out of the city, Adele provided us with history on multiple fronts: Chinese history and Great Wall history. The drive progressed smoothly, and the scenery changed from that of an urban capital to craggy mountains, vast chestnut orchards, and beautiful vistas.   The tour is divided into two parts: Gubeikou and Jinshanling.   While I have no other Great Wall experience to compare it to, I did a lot of research in planning for this trip. The Great Wall was our final journey in completing the Seven World Wonders. I wanted to experience a—mostly untouched—portion of the wall, but I also wanted to see a restored portion without the throngs of 10,000 other tourists. This tour checked every one of those boxes, and then some!   Anyone wanting to experience the majesty and beauty of the Great Wall should book this tour with Adele. In my opinion, this tour is suitable for children 12 and up. Hikers should have average fitness, slightly above average flexibility, slightly above average climbing skills, and slightly above average balance.

Avoid the huge crowds at the usual tourist areas to see the Great Wall at these two remote areas. We spent hours at these locations and were able to see the wall and take photos with no crowds of people. Our guide Leo is wonderful. He speaks English very well and is very knowledgeable but does not overwhelm you with a constant stream of chatter. Be prepared to walk a lot, but you will be blown away by the majesty of these locations. Can’t thank Leo enough for this great tour!

Leo was a fantastic guide - perfect English, safe driving, very caring, friendly and knew how to get even our teenagers smiling! Lunch was yum too. This trip was the best thing we did in our 3 weeks in China - the wall was beautiful, wild and and Leo has designed a tour away from the crowds and so beautiful. Do this tour!!

This was by far the best tour I've ever done. Leo is so attentive to your needs, so willing to go the extra mile to show you hidden parts of the Great Wall. As the photos indicate, we went to places where there were no other tourists, where you could enjoy the wall in peace and take in the breathtaking views. Leo tailors the tour to your needs, so if you dont like hiking he will find a shorter (but equally as beautiful) route, if you like hiking then a longer one is done. It felt really personal. The lunch was excellent and overall this was such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

My partner and I booked the tour with Leo and the process was very easy - he gave us his contact information and was very responsive. The tour itself exceeded all of our expectations - it was a fantastic experience. We saw amazing views of the Great Wall and first got to see the Wild Wall that has been untouched for 2,000 years. This is something you will not get to see on standard tours so we felt very lucky. Our lunch was delicious and was a very local experience - the Kungpao chicken, mutton and pork belly were all delicious! Finally, we went to Jinshaling part of the wall where we had spectacular views at sunset. The entire day we did not see any other tourists - it made our experience feel so special and authentic. Leo is a photographer and took 100+ photos of us and edited/sent them all within 12 hour! He also taught us a lot of history during the drive to the Great Wall. Definitely book this tour with Leo for the best possible experience when seeing the Great Wall! Highly recommend.
