#Mary is a remarkable tour guide packed with knowledge of history and legendary stories relevant to our Great Wall and Ming Tombs trip. A one-stop-shop for everything you need if you are in a rush with no time to plan your Beijing trip. You will be able to access all privileges and save plenty of hassles where you normally need to register appointments to the managed sites. Going through #Mary's tour. She will be doing all that hard work for you in advance. Hassle-free and highly recommended. Oh yes, and don't forget to tip your driver and guide at the end of the day to reward their hard work.

This tour is really relaxed, very easy. We go up the great wall by cable car and have time to explore ourselves and thats really nice. Our tour guide, Murphy, was on time, helpful and gave a lot of information regarding the wall, the Ming tombs and chinese culture. Really recommend this!!!

Great experience! The tour guide Murphy was really good!!! Really knowledgeable, fun and helpful! Gave us tips and a lot of info! To visit the great wall is outstanding, a very impressive site! The tour is very relaxed, going up the wall with the cable car, its very easy, we can explore the site by ourselves, really good. Also, for the Ming tombs, just a short walk. Lunch was also good, with a lot of options.

I felt like Joe was hard to understand but the Wall and the experience was great. Five stars to Joe for taking us up via the funicular tram (everyone agreed to pay extra for it) because it made the walk extremely easy and there was hardly anyone on that section of the Wall. We had 2 hours to explore on our own. Then we went to the jade factory was a sales ploy but it was also educational. The buffet lunch was just OK. The Ming Tombs were pretty cool.

Our guide Murphy was fantastic. He gave us all the information we needed and helped us to seemlessly navigate the various checkpoints. He also offered extra valuble information and guidance on Beijing in general and Chinese culture. I would have liked to have spent a bit longer on the wall and would have been happy to forgo one of the other activities to have the time to travel to one of the less busy sections but overall the experience was very very good. Thank you Murphy!
