Aussie Review - First timers in China
Maria_J, October 2026
What an amazing experience. We did the Mutianyu Great Wall with buffet tour. John was our tour guide who was amazing, helpful and full of historical facts. Super easy to find meeting point and clear instructions throughout the day. Better pack your best walking shoes, those great wall steps are a killer.

It’s An amazing time. Olive is seriously the best asset China has to offer. She is seriously so informed and educated about the history of China. She made the process of acquiring our tickets and info we needed for the wall. Especially the cable car and toboggan. The buffet they provide is unmatched.

CiCi is a wonderful guide, lots of patience and very knowledgeable. She came to my rescue when I stupidly left my bag on your bus. She cycled back with it even though it was out of her way. A thoroughly enjoyable tour.
