Nice experience at sunset - The Jinshaling section tour was spectacular! The view at dawn was very beautiful. There were very few people in the place and it was possible to take advantage of the wall over about 3 hours.

Great experience - highly recommend! - Highly recommend this tour if you want to experience an uncrowded part of the Great Wall. We practically had it to ourselves! We were a group of 5, which was perfect! The driver was also very friendly.
Thank you!

10/10 recommend - We had one of the best trips ever! We went with driver/guide Jackie and a group of 5 people. Jackie was a nice and patient guy who Let us wonder around after the trip on the wall. The group was small and cosy.
There was almost no one at the wall. We could even drink a beer which we bought at the First souvenirshop (with a very sweet old lady) in silence on the wall. Crazy!
We were very lucky with the weather because the sunsetview was amazing.
It was a tough climb with a lot of stairs (different heights also) but absolutely worth it.
After the walk Jackie asked if we wanted to eat at the local restaurant. If You have time for it, go check it out! It was a small place where locals were also eating, the food was nice and a good way to end the day with the group.
10/10 recommend!!!

Probably the best way to experience the Wall - Had a really awesome Day! The driver was fun, helpfull und friendly. He showed us some really wild and lonely parts of the famous Wall. Because of the rain we had a nice and authentic Chinese Dinner together afterwards. Couldn't imagen a better experience to visit the wall. Highly recommend!

It's worth a visit! - Exceptional moment, the sunset is definitely worth it, it would be a shame to miss it. I loved walking on the Great Wall. The value for money is very good, and it is nice to walk independently on the section. Sunshine was waiting for us on arrival and was very friendly, made us lots of pictures. A great time!

- An amazing experience. It is well worth the slightly longer drive, as the scenery is majestic. There was hardly anyone there so we were free to take in all the beauty and tranquility. The steps up to the wall and the walk are a bit testing, so a minimum level of fitness is required. Having said that there are very frequent stops for a rest so as long as you take your time it’s fine. Definitely not for people with mobility issues. One of the nicest days in my life!

A beautiful sunset - A fairly demanding walk, recommended to be a minimum sportsman, not to have ankle knee problems etc because the steps are high, the ramparts can be very steep. Otherwise very good itinerary of 5h taking its time and making breaks and photos. It is possible to buy water, beer and drink on the towers. The sunset is over the mountain, not over the wall but it is beautiful. We were the only group on the wall
