Overview

The Mutianyu section of the Great Wall lies northeast of Beijing and is less crowded than other parts. This private day trip lasts about eight hours, with a flexible start time based on your preference. An English-speaking driver will pick you up from your hotel and drive roughly 1.5 hours to the Great Wall. Upon arrival, the driver assists with entrance ticket purchase and explains how to access the Wall and where to wait for pickup. Entrance tickets and shuttle bus rides between the parking area and the Wall entrance are included. You can choose to take the cable car up or hike; however, cable car and toboggan ride tickets are not included. After spending about three hours exploring and hiking the Wall, you return by private vehicle to your hotel around 4:00 pm. The driver speaks basic English but does not act as a tour guide. The trip can be customized to visit other Great Wall sections if requested. Starting earlier during holidays or weekends is recommended to avoid crowds.
