Fun day trip to the zoo and Great wall with 2 kids - It was the first time taking our kids ages 8 and 3 to the great wall. My wife and I had been there many times but this was the first time getting a guided tour. Our guide Athan and driver Mr. Tang made the experience truly seamless and enjoyable for our whole family. Athan was a great guide explaining to us the history of the Great wall during our drive there. The stopover at the panda exhibit was definitely a delight for the kids. We were able to see up close 3 pandas and skip the long ticket lines. The lunch stop was at an authentic local restaurant and we really enjoyed the meal. Athan tailored the menu to suite our preferences and the food was ready and on the table by the time we arrived. At the Wall, the views were breathtaking, especially during the ascent on the cable car. We hiked up three main towers, and Athan even helped with the kids as my wife and I took in the views and took photos. He also took many great family photos for us. With his help we were able to get both kids to scale to the top most tower where the views were expansive and an original section of the wall could be seen in the distance. At times the incline was more than 70 deg and we definitely could not have done it without his help. The way down was definitely a huge highlight, speeding down the metal track on the toboggan. Athan even offered to carry my backpack down so my son and I could have an easier time on the ride. It was exhilarating and we were able to get some pretty good speed on the way down. Overall it was a fantastic experience and we'll be finding Athen again next time we're in Beijing!

Above and beyond expectations! - The tour guide Sophie and driver Zhao were excellent! Very accommodating, professional and friendly. Highly recommend this tour experience for visitors to Beijing. 5 stars :)

Incredible and Fun! - Sherry was fantastic! Super knowledgeable and helpful! Knew all of the tips and tricks too! Highly recommend!

Worth the money spent - A straightforward tour. Our guide was superb as she suggested that we take a look at the panda first instead of scaling the great wall since it was raining there. Saw the pandas and we quickly made our way to the great wall. Glad that we finally stepped foot at the magnificent architecture. Would love to come again to cover all the lookout posts.

Great Wall and Panda House - Day was amazing, took amazing videos of the Pandas, had a delicious traditional Chinese food lunch, Hiked on the Great Wall, scenery was indescribably beautiful and my tour guide Lucy Feng was very friendly and knowledgeable. She made the tour exceptional. 100% recommended.

Great experience - Very nice place to go and with the help of discover beijing tour we enjoyed more as they took care of all the tickets and they provide best in class smothless services.

Fun easy - What a great tour. The guide kevin was amazing. Informative and got us in and out of areas so smoothly.

Susan is my new BFF! - Susan was an absolute gift!!! I booked this trip for my first day in Beijing, arriving the prior afternoon. I would be working for the week and didn't want to miss this opportunity to explore Beijing's treasured sights. Susan picked me up in my hotel lobby (alongside our driver who was so friendly, accommodating, and prompt). I immediately felt at ease and in great hands! We started by seeing the pandas at the Beijing Zoo and Susan helped me navigate seamlessly through the park. It was a joy and we laughed so much! Next, we went to the Great Wall and she bravely inspired me to take the ski lift to the top. I loved that it was like experiencing it with a friend. I was obviously a bit tired from the long flight from NYC and she let me rest in the car and we could walk as I wanted. She had a wealth of knowledge to share when I was ready and she was so open to sharing her personal experiences and context about culture. She recommended we take the toboggan down and it was a once in a lifetime experience!! She made sure I felt safe and stayed by my side. We then spent the afternoon eating authentic cuisine and shopping. It was a day I will NEVER forget!

Lucy was an amazing tour... - Lucy was an amazing tour guide. She was super friendly and was very excited to show us around. She picked us up with our driver at our hotel lobby at the specified time. During our drive she spoke about and showed us various landmarks. She is very knowledgeable about beijing. The zoo trip was fantastic. Although we did not have time to fully explore the whole zoo, Lucy made sure to take note of the animals that we definitely wanted to see and show them to us. The lunch was also exceptional. We wanted a local experience and she gave us just that. Sightseeing at Mutianyu was an unforgettable experience. We got to walk around and take loads of stunning pictures whilst Lucy explained the history of the great wall.
