 |  Mutianyu Great Wall tour
We went on this tour to the Great Wall on April 18th, the last day of our time in China. We chose the Mutianyu tour because we wanted to see something of the Chinese countryside and visit the wall without too many people. We weren't disappointed. It was a delight to see the local agriculture, especially the many orchards which reminded us of where we live in England. But then the scenery changed and we reached the dramatic hills across which marched the Great Wall. It was magnificent, an experience we will never forget, even though - not expecting the switch-back effect - we did not walk very far. Near the car/coach park there were a lot of traders - if only we had had more money left! On the way back into the centre of Beijing we drove past the Olymic Village and it was good to see for ourselves what will, no doubt, become very familiar images. As the tour was longer than the one we had booked last year, we were not able to do the evening tour we had booked, and were very pleased with how efficiently China Tour refunded us the money. We would certainly recommend this company.
