      Cette excursion est d’un bon rapport qualité prix. Le guide prend contact avec vous la veille pour vous indiquer l’heure du rendez-vous et confirmer la localisation de votre hôtel. De bons conseils pendant le trajets sont communiqués. Le tour commencent par le tombe aux des Mings apparement à faire mais que nous avons trouver sans grand intérêt de même que le Jade Carving un peu « attrape touriste ». Néanmoins, le déjeuner local est succulent et abondant. Badaling offre une vue imprenable sur la muraille et est absolument incroyable. Le tour se conclu sur une cérémonie de thé très enrichissante, vous apprenant les bienfaits de chaque thé. Point d’amélioration: un bus plutôt qu’un van serait plus confortable. A noté: prévoir 140Y pour les câble car (obligatoire) Point positif: le guide vous dépose ou vous le souhaitez sur le chemin retour

      The tour itself is very cheap. However they bring you to a jade factory unannounced where they sell way overpriced jade souvenirs. Don’t but anything here! Go to the souvenirs market in Beijing and you can buy the same items for 80% cheaper. When you arrive at the great wall you meed to take the cablecar which cost 200 rmb, keep that in mind. After the great wall you will also go to a thea house unannounced. Same problem here, way overprices thea. Don’t but at this store but at a local thea store!

      Didn't spend enough time at the great wall of china. Spent more time at a jade store and tea store trying to sell us overpriced items. Plus the tour guide was fighting with one of the customers, then Talking Chinese to the driver who drove like a nut. Looks like he moonlights as a Triad member.

      This all day tour was a great deal at 32! Becky was our guide for this tour, and lead our small group through the ins and outs of the tour spots. She gave thorough explanations and histories and allowed enough time for us to check out each spot. We went to badaling, Ming Tombs, jade factory also where lunch is, and a tea house, which added up to an all day thing that lasted until about 5:30-6pm when we got dropped off back at the hotel or wherever you want inside beijing.

      While the guide and the driver were great, Badaling is actually very crowded and people can push and shove a bit on the climb. I am not sure if Mutianyu is any better. That is my only complaint.
