Very nice tour of Gubei Water Town & Simatai Section of Great Wall at night! - Had a great tour of Gubei Water Town & Simatai Section of the Great Wall at night! Because it's winter, both attractions had very few people which we liked. I'm sure during warmer months there would be more of a crowd. James was a great tour guide who showed us the highlights of both. We did a multi-day trip in Beijing & Xi'an and used Catherine Lu Tours for all our time there. Great tour company and guides, we highly recommend them!

Awesome 4 day insights into Chinese History - Tour was well organised. Catherine and her team were responsive. Shoutout to tour guide Peter for his in depth knowledge of Chinese history, enthusiasm, energy, photography skills, local knowledge and unbiased food recommendations. My family enjoyed this trip a lot.

Unique night climb on the Great Wall - The experience was unique - our first time climbing the Great Wall at night. The view was great, looking back at Gubei WaterTown. The guide took us up the Gondola followed by about 10 minutes walk before we reached the Great Wall. Definitely a must try on your bucket list!

Extraordinary tour - The tour was amazing and i enjoyed it to the maximum. The village was so beautiful and the drone show was unforgettable experience. The tour guide Justin wan was very professional and provided me with a lot of information about the history and village. Visiting the Great Wall was my dream and to be able to visit it in the night in my first day in Beijing was extraordinary. I want to thank Justin for everything and im highly recommending this tour for everyone visiting cubei village while they are in visiting Beijing .
