Nestled in Huairou County, 72km northeast of Beijing, it lies in contrast to the Badaling Great Wall, and is linked with the Juyongguan Pass to the west and the Gubeikou Gateway to the east. The region resembles a garden atop a mountain.

The area’s visual appeal is particularly striking during the spring and autumn seasons.

Awesome Experience with Catherine Tour - Our tour guide, Peter was excellent. He is knowledgeable, personable, helpful and very thoughtful throughout our trip. The trip content was good, and everything was well planned and booked beforehand, with minimal delay and waiting. Peter and our driver were also very accommodating and tailored the entire day trip to our preference, including choice of meals and small additional stops which we requested. Highly recommend them if you are looking for a private tour to the Great Wall and you are looking for a personalized and awesome experience.

Reliable and fun tour! - Trustworthy tour!! I travelled with my husband and 15month old daughter, so I wanted things to go smooth for her.. and it was perfect! They picked us up at the requested time (I asked for the time with less traffic to avoid a tantrum in the car and the guide was very helpful to suggest the best pick up time), the car was big and super comfortable with a safe driver. Our guide Amanda was super friendly and knowledgeable, she responded to all our questions about China and the Great Wall history. She also took us to a good restaurant and recommended the food that fit us best. This section of the wall is beautiful and I’m glad we got to explore, it wasn’t very crowded and being able to go up by cable car was perfect. Great experience in general!

Weekend Trip to China - Very fun trip with our lovely guide Rita! We were happy to explore and talk with Rita throughout the trip. The lunch included was amazing as well. The driver also dropped us off at another location we wanted to visit without additional cost as it was in the same area as our hotel, which we were grateful for! Definitely a trip worth taking~

Competent advice, safe trip and a pleasant tour guide - Catherine Lu gave me an unforgettable pre-Christmas experience by organizing a special short trip to Geat Wall Mutianyu. I had an 8-hour layover at Beijing Airport on December 20, 2023 and wanted to make good use of the time. One one 4-hour trip to the Great Wall in Huanghuacheng was offered in internet. The wall lies idyllic in a watery landscape, but is difficult to walk on in winter because it has hardly been renovated. Catherine Lu recommended Mutianyu to me. Mutianyu is considered the largest fully restored part of the Great Wall. Mutianyu can be easily reached from Beijing Airport in an hour and 15 minutes by car. Then you get to the Great Wall with a short bus ride and a cable car. The driver Mr. Zhang picked me up directly at the arrivals hall at Beijing Airport, took care of all the ticket bookings and accompanied me to the Great Wall. Thank you Mr. Zhang for the beautiful photos, the travel companion and the safe car journey. Thanks to Catherine Lu.

Amazing day @ The Great Wall!! - Just back from an amazing trip to China where we booked the “Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Trip” with Catherine from Catherine Lu tours. What an amazing experience! Catherine and our driver picked us up from the hotel and we made great time thanks to their knowledge of several driving shortcuts. Once we got to the Great Wall, Catherine did a great job of staying close enough to capture incredible photos and share her knowledge with us, while also giving us space to explore on our own. We went at our own pace, and when we were done Catherine brought us to eat possibly the best meal we had in China! She recommended several authentic, delicious dishes, which we all enjoyed together. We were dropped back off at our hotel happy, full, and with a lifetime of memories. Throughout the entire process Catherine was very responsive, thoughtful and kind. We are not normally ‘tour’ people and tend to explore on our own, but are so glad we decided to book with Catherine Lu Tours. We genuinely enjoyed her company, and our time with her absolutely added to our overall experience in China! Super added bonus….Catherine was kind enough to even assist us with recommendations and a restaurant reservations days later while we were in Shanghai!! Catherine is the best, you will not be disappointed booking a tour with her!!

Wonderful trip to Mutianyu - Very well organized tour with „Catherine Lu Tours“. Pick up and drop off was possible at an individual arranged destination. The drive to Mutianyu was in a very comfortable and luxurious van. We really enjoyed that. Our guide Angel was brilliant and a very good tour guide. We can fully recommend the tour.
