    Such an amazing tour! Lily picked us up at our hotel and gave us some history on the way to the Wall. We hiked up two different spots on the wall before heading to the Sacred Path and Ming Tombs. Lily was flexible to allow us to go more quickly as we only had the two of us. We even got in a few other pics at attractions on the way back to the hotel. I would highly recommend this tour! A
