Perfect trip - This trip was perfect- it was stress free and my driver was waiting for me exactly where we arranged, at the correct time. He was very friendly, very punctual and had excellent English. Well worth spending the money on this trip. The wall was amazing!

Great Jack - Jack was our English speaking driver and picked us up at the airport. He was already there when we got out from the airport although our meeting time was another hour. His English is good that made us feel relieved being able to have someone who can understand us. He provided us with mineral water and bananas in his very well maintained and clean car. The best part he drove us all the way up at the Mutianyu entrance and helped us with the cable car tickets. He even paid first for us when we had difficulty in using Alipay for the first time. We did not have to walk few kilometers. He took the cable car ride as well and explained about great wall to us. He let us spent few hours there without any pressure of being quick. On the way back to our apartment, he was willing to stop at a supermarket for us to buy some groceries. We also asked Jack to send us back to the airport at the end of our stay in Beijing. It was a wonderful experience and having Jack as an English speaking driver made our day. Highly recommended.

Awesome day - We landed at Beijing international airport at 11.
Perfect pick up by Jim
The trip to the wall was fast and easy, we got water and bananas.
At the wall Jim organized a cheaper ticket for the cable car and Tobaggan (180RMB)
We were walking about 3-4 hours there and Jim told us a few background information.
He even drove us back into Beijing city center to DaDong Roast duck.
All in all a super day with a great and funny driver/guide.
Highly recommend
