Great Wall at Gubeikou and Jinshanling Private Sunset Tour

Great Wall at Gubeikou and Jinshanling Private Sunset Tour - Stop 2: Jinshanling Sunset Trek and Photo-Perfect Towers

1.Great Wall at Gubeikou and Jinshanling Private Sunset Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 307 reviews · from $160Our pick

Private sunset hike at the Great Wall, pairing remote Gubeikou wild sections with photo-perfect Jinshanling, plus pickup, guide, lunch.

“Our guide and driver are both incredibly friendly and helpful. The tour consists of two segments - one for Gubeikou, which is less well maintained, and one for Jinshanlong, which is better maintained, both are cool and the contrast is very interesting. Neither segment is crowded and for long stretches of time we’d be the only people around, which was great.”

Listening to him was fascinating, and we learned so much throughout the tour. This experience is highly recommended and has become one of the best memories of our trip.”

“GREAT WALL REVIEW I and a friend of mine transited through China for a week and had the chance to visit the Great Wall by booking this tour. As to the cost, we concluded that for the completion of the service, its cost and its long duration (see as a positive tract), this was the best (and considering all alternatives to see the same things in a way the most affordable too) option to opt for. Our guide, who goes by the English name Myco (or Myko), used the long journey from Beijing to the Wall to first introduce us to some aspects of Chinese everyday life, which we would…”

“This was a waste of time/money. Young boy came, picked us up and drove us to few spots, but we don't know what they were as he spoke NO ENGLISH. He drove and pointed with his hand in some direction and mumbled something in language that was not English. We had NO IDEA where we were and what we saw. Driver was TEXTING NON-STOP, walking, standing and at times even while driving. HORRIBLE - THIS WAS NOT TOUR - THIS WAS A RIP OFF!”
