About this activity
8am in the morning,after your private guide and driver pick you up from your Beijing hotel, then drive to the Great Wall at Mutianyu, it is the best-preserved section of the wall and much less crowded than other sections, Mutianyu Great Wall is the most representative of how it looked during the Ming Dynasty 600years ago. Follow your guide on a moderate hike along the wall, which stretches 2,300 feet (700 meters) with inclines reaching up to 460 feet (140 meters). You can either walk up to the top of wall or take cable car up at your own expense.
Along the way, enjoy the picturesque views of the wall snaking through the tree-covered mountain. Learn from your guide about the tactical significance of watchtowers and segments of this fortification. Your hike will take approximately two hours, depending on the pace you choose to take.
Drive to a nearby popular restaurant to delight in a lunch of local Beijing specialties. After your lunch, drive to Beijing National Stadium, informally known as the Bird’s Nest, and the Beijing National Aquatics Center, known as the Water Cube. Spend some time to take some amazing pictures of these landmarks' surroundings and enjoying the scenery while hearing accounts of their design and function during the 2008 Olympics.
At the end of your tour, you’ll be taken back to your Beijing hotel.

Dean was the ideal guide. He answered all of our questions and was very patient with our family. He spoke great English and we felt very comfortable on the tour. Our driver was a doll, always smiling and a wonderful companion. The private car was very helpful. I recommend the toboggan from the wall!
Very good and friendly guide Allen with detailed information about the chinese history!
Great guide, comfortable transport and excellent places to visit. Delicious lunch. Really enjoyed the whole experience.
Very nice tour. Our guide (Jackie) was very knowledgable about the Beijing area and the wall. The Mutianyu section of the wall has some steep climbs, be prepared.
