I recommend - Overall it was a very pleasant experience, great group, the Lee guide was great and the convenience and safety make the difference. My only point of reference was having little time on the Wall of China, the main reason for the visit. But it was excellent.

This was a fantastic... - This was a fantastic tour. We covered so much ground but nothing ever felt rushed. The tour of the Great Wall, especially, is a once in a lifetime experience. Our tour guide Murphy was incredible.

Great Tour Issue On the listing - ⸻ I really enjoyed the tour, but I had a very stressful experience with the booking. I checked multiple tours because I had a 24-hour layover and stayed at the Hilton by the airport so I could check in quickly and return to the airport easily. I noticed that most tours did not include my hotel in their pickup region, but this one did. Since my hotel was listed as available for pickup, I booked it. After booking, I received an email from Wendy telling me to go to a hotel that was an hour away. I tried to cancel the reservation because that was not what I had signed up for. I specifically needed a pickup and drop-off at the airport. They refused to give me a refund. In the end, I had to take a taxi and paid 190 yen to go to the meeting point and return to my hotel. Aside from this unpleasant and stressful start, the tour itself was very enjoyable. Michael, the tour guide, was friendly and helpful. We visited many different locations and experienced some interesting traditional activities. The Great Wall was the highlight, but unfortunately, we did not have much time there. I would have loved at least two hours to explore and walk more. I recommend this tour if your hotel is close to the city. Just make sure to double-check the pickup information before booking.
