A superb introduction to China! Flying into Beijing, visiting Tiananmen Square and walking some off-the-beaten-path sections of the Great Wall was a wonderful introduction to China. As usual, excellent local guidance and support from the tour operator. The trek itself is more 'challenging' than 'tough' and usually left me feeling there was just a little bit of that 'extra action' that was missing at the end of the day. That being said, if you're a first-time hiker or looking for short bursts of quadricep-burning challenges with lots of photo-ops, this is a great place to start.
We were very happy with the service and with our guide Mel and his flexibility. Thank you for your great patience to make our trip to Beijing wonderful. I will recommend to our friends also.
My private tour to Great Wall of China and to Forbidden city was arranged in a perfect way starting from the airport pick-up till the final hotel drop-off. Enjoyed the trip to the fullest and would definitely plan another trip through this local travel specialist in the future.
