Mutianyu Great Wall Private Tour with Flexible Departure Time from Morning to Afternoon

---

Where is Mutianyu Great Wall?

Mutianyu is located 60 km (37 miles) northeast of Beijing in Huairou County. As one of the Great Wall's best-preserved parts, the Mutianyusection of the Great Wall used to serve as the northern barrier defending Beijing and the imperial tombs.

Why should you consider a Mutianyu private tour?

• Mutianyu Great Wall is 2 hours away from Beijing. A private ride can shorten it to 1.5 hours.  
• Your time to go is flexible at your convenience. 
• Mutianyu is generally not crowded. However, it may get too overcrowded on weekends and holidays. A private tour with special arrangements will ensure your trip is not heavily affected. 

Compared with other sections of the Great Wall, the Mutianyu Great Wall possesses unique characteristics in its construction. Watchtowers are densely placed along this section of the Great Wall - 22 watchtowers on this 2,250-meter-long stretch. Both the outer and inner parapets are crenelated with merlots so that shots could be fired at the enemy on both sides - a feature rarely seen on other parts of the Great Wall. Mutianyu has seen famous visitors from world leaders to sports clubs (the NBA's Golden State Warriors). Both First Ladies Michelle Obama and Melania Trump chose Mutianyu as their destinations of Great Wall to visit. 

 
While Mutianyu never gets as packed as Badaling, allowing you to have a peaceful time exploring the wall. After walking around on Mutianyu, you have the option of coming down via walking, taking a cable car, or taking a toboggan ride (lots of fun and highly recommended!). At the end of the tour, we will transfer you back directly to your hotel. 

With most Great Wall tour companies, they think it's enough to drive you to the Great Wall, drop you off, and take you back to your hotel. That's where we go the extra miles. In addition to providing transportation, we will personally guide you while on the Great Wall. While there, your guide will provide you with knowledge and history of the Great Wall along with some fun anecdotes and other stories that will only enhance your Great Wall experience. When you choose Great Wall Adventure Club, you choose a fully immersive and interactive Great Wall experience, one that is more than merely a "hike." Besides, your guide will ensure that your tour is not only fun and informative but safe as well.
