Mutianyu Great Wall

You will be driven to the Mutianyu Section of Great Wall early to avoid the traffic and lines(queues). This section of Great Wall is the most beatiful secion around Beijing city. You can choose to have the lunch before or after you enjoy the Wall. With our vip pass, we can drive directly to the Great Wall without changing shuttle bus which avoid lots of trouble and wasting of time, and then you can enjoy a 2 hours hiking on the Wall.You can choose to take the ski - lift up and toboggan sliding down to get on and off the Great Wall, it is highly recommended, so that you won't need to climb 30mins steps on the hill before reaching the actual Great Wall. And when you come down from the wall, you can choose to do the toboggan sliding down the hill, which is the best way to finish your exciting Great Wall trip.
