Amazing! Thank you for unforgetable experience! Would recommend China Tour to everyone!..
The tour at Great Wall and Dingling are good. But we didn’t get to see the Olympic Stadium...
Realy a good experience overall. Our guide spoke realy good english (especially compared to the rest of people in China). They picked us up on time and we had a good time. Would recommend them !..
Great tour - reasonably priced - very friendly guide with good English - great lunch..
Instead of stopping at the Jade-center we might have had time to see the Olympick stadiums. Now we just passed by the swimming-stadium at a distance. The Ming grave was interesting, the Wall was really GREAT. The tea- Place was good and our Guide did a fine job. Maybe a Little difficult to understand but she really tried hard. Maybe if not stopping at the Jade-center the driver should not have to drive so fast and furious...
Absolutely fabulous tour and tour guide. Very reasonable price and very informative...
I booked this tour online. Everything was arranged as expected. And especially Nancy was very communicative and helpful. The guide came on time for pick up and there were no hiccups during the tour. Yes they took us to tea tasting and jade factory but that's expected for the cheap price. I will really recommend the tour to my friends...
I had a wonderful experience by booking 1 day tour by ChinaTour.net. I was alone visiting Beijing and searching how to reach the Great wall. I just got this link and booked 2 days before. The guide Lee called me a day before and ensured that we will be joining on time. He just reached the hotel in the morning. The journey started in a bus along with tourists. Guide and he driver are professional. They explained the history of the place that we are going to visit in the bus and took us to a nice restaurant for Chinese lunch. We visited Great wall and other places and came back to hotel by bus. I recommend this site for booking your tour. i t is economical and you can meet lot of friends and it is professional.

Had an enjoyable time on this tour. Felt that it was good value for money, tour guide spoke understandable English, though slightly rushed...
Great tour. Very nice lunch! Shopping stops were good but I suggest you book without the shopping to get more time on the sites. Unfortunately the tour did not stop at the Olympic stadiums. They just showed the stadiums from the road. So a bit misleading. Anyhow were were mainly there for the great wall - which was amazing!!..
This is a great value for money all day tour !! You are collected from your Hotel Lobby (if central location). We visited JADE factory .... but no pressure to buy. We visited Dingling Tomb area ... which has lots of history. We then had a very nice chinese lunch before attempting the wall. Our group then paid the Yuan 120 to go up in the chair lift, which gave us more time "on the wall", then down on the toboggan ride ..... which is a must ! This allowed approx 2 hours on the wall. I had already climbed the Badaling section of the Wall, but found this Mutianyu section to be less crowded ... and more interesting. On the drive home we went to a tea ceremony, then drove past Olympic village, before being dropped back to our hotels. All up over 12 hours of great experience ... and you get to meet a whole lot of other nice travelers for the days experience (mini bus so under 20 people). Good work ChinaTour !!..
Good tour, I enjoy the tour. Nice guide Chris speaks good Englisch. Hè droped me off near the Olympique stadion because it was closer to my hotel. Very Nice. Lunch was good to...
The tour guide did not even know which tour package we took and started explaining what she thought was the agenda.. more than sightseeing we were supposed to spend more time on shopping... Some places we even felt being forced to buy something... I will not recommend to go with this agency... Atleast they should ask the tourists which package they took before starting the tour.....
We had Chris as our guide, he took effort in explaining all the sites however at times he was rushing and his English wasn't so clear. We also couldn't complete the entire tour and had to skip Bird's nest & water cube. Hence I would rate him as average...
Amazing value for money; entrance fees to two sites, lunch and a bus for the day for £20. The Great Wall was a once in a lifetime experience; truly incredible. I had been concerned that due to the additional excursions that we wouldn't have ample time at the wall. However, we had 2 full hours on the Great Wall and only about an hour at the Jade and Tea factory (combined). Chris was an excellent guide; friendly and insightful. I would definitely recommend this tour...
Simply the best tour(quality/price) everything was on time, excellent guide, we enjoyed it...
The driver was terrible, he ran all the time and put everyone's lives in danger countless times. The order to pick up at the hotel should be the reverse of leaving to avoid the same people waiting too long on the bus. It did not stop at the bird's nest as it was written just passed from far away. The tour guide was friendly and very polite but he was always in a hurry, plus the tour is worth the experience...
I would strictly recommend the tour to Mutianyu Great Wall and Underground palace. Our guide Chris was very good and well experienced same as our driver. The climbing with cable car and the way down with toboggan were AMAZING! we alway skipped the line, never queued once and all our time was well organized. the reason why I am giving 4/5 stars is the following. The offer said "On the way back to Beijing downtown, you will have a short exterior visit of the Olympic Stadiums-Bird's Nest and Water Cube, where you can take some pictures" BUT ACTUALLY THE SHORT VISIT IS A GLIMPSE FROM THE CAR. This is not fair. We decided however to go and visit the stadium privately and we were delivered just in front of the bird's nest. We came back to hotel by subway since our guide explained us very well how to use it. For all the rest this was A TOP CHOICE!..
Positive: The driver was on time and waiting for us when we came out of the secure part of passenger terminal. He was friendly and helped us with our bags. We gladly tipped him at the end. The Great Wall Mutianyu: The tour was good. We had a shared bus ride and had a wonderful group of people. The cable cars (lifts) at this part of the wall are old and open; but, that was not fault of China Tours. Dingling Tombs: We were supposed to go to Dingling Tombs; but, the tour guide took us to Ming Tombs. He said it was better. Unfortunately, I had already visited this portion; therefore, it was a waste of my time. I would prefer for the tour guide to take us to where we paid for. Several passengers had paid for Badaling portion of the Great Wall but were given the Mutianyu portion. This is wrong and should not be done to people who are expecting a certain tour. Olympic Stadium: Shameful. You should tell people that they are just going to drive buy the Olympic Stadium and not even stop. This guy didn't slow down to let people take a picture. I had brought 3 friends along who were doing Beijing for the first time and they were truly disappointed. I always use and recommend China Tours to all my American friends coming from Korea; but, business practices like this are bad for your company...
Tour guide was prompt, courteous & knowledgeable. Scheduled 1-day private group tour (5 of us) to Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City & the Great Wall with pick-up/drop-off at hotel. Beijing traffic (both on the roads & at the sites) is tremendous. Due to this, only had walk-by of Tiananmen Square on way to Palace/Forbidden City. Seeing the sites in person was fantastic. There is a bit of high-pressure sales pitches with the shopping, but we all bought something at each stop anyway. :-) OVERALL - Would recommend as it is a good value for the money...
