Awesome, Unforgettable Day!!! - Our visit to the Great Wall with Steven as our guide was absolutely brilliant! We saw a unique, less travelled - but so worth seeing - portion of the wall, with beautiful views and lots of variety. Steven’s passion for hiking and history, along with his fluency in English made him the ideal person to lead us on this adventure. He took great care of us and delivered exactly what we were hoping for!
