Dear Ms. Liang, Our guided tour of Beijing finishes today and my husband and I wish to thank Barrin, our Beijing tour guide, our Beijing driver and your company for what has been the most memorable holiday that we have ever had.

We had an absolutely perfect day with our tour guide - Rogin Luo - who took us for a hike along The Great Wall! Didn't know what to expect and were thrilled to have him as our guide. Very imformative, knowledgable and fun! We go to experience a part of The Great Wall that was unrestored and see all its natural beauty. Got a long history lesson along the way! After the hike, we all went to lunch at a small place at the bottom of the hill. Located in a house, we ate lunch in the proprietors bedroom! What a hoot! Rogin is the Best of the Best! This tour company delivered for us and we are extremely grateful.

Q:Which section of the Great Wall should I visit?
A:There are five sections of the Great Wall around Beijing which are officially opened to the public - Badaling Great Wall, Juyongguan Great Wall, Mutianyu Great Wall, Jinshanling Great Wall and Simatai Great Wall. The other three sections - Huanghuacheng, Jiankou and Gubeikou are not recommended due to safety reason.
Badaling: 80km northwest from Beijing, busy, popular, breathtaking veiw of the wall winding
Juyongguan: 60km northwest from Beijing, closest section, heavily renovated, steep
Mutianyu: 85km north of Beijing, green, wonderful scenery,
Simatai: 140km northeast of Beijing, rugged, steep and hazardous
Jinshanling: 160km northeast of Beijing, wild, rugged, steep and hazardous

Q: Are there any sections of the wall that should not be hiked in winter? Or is road access to sections of the wall impassable or unsafe at this time of year due to snow or ice? What sections can be hiked in December?
A: The best season for the Great Wall hike falls between March and November. Winter Great Wall Hike is a bit challenging mainly due to the frozen weather in later December, January and early early February each year in Beijing.
But no matter how cold it is in Beijing, all the five officially opened sections of the Great Wall are open to the public - Badaling Great Wall, Juyongguan Great Wall, Mutianyu Great Wall, Jinshanling Great Wall and Simatai Great Wall.
The Great Wall hike is impossible only because the road access to sections is blocked due to the heavy snow. Beijing nowadays rarely snows. But if you plan to do the hike in winter, we do suggest you check the weather report.

Q: What is the level of hiking for the hiking tour?
A: It is a beginning - intermediate level. The hike from Jinshangling to Simatai takes about 4-5 hours, the touchest hike. Hike section by section.

Q: Can we take a cable car up to the Great Wall?
A: Yes, the cable car is optional. The cable car is available on Badaling, Mutianyu, Jinshanling and Simatai. We suggest you hike up the Great Wall and take the cable car down the wall.

Q: Do your tour guides speak English? Are they knowledgeable on the history of the Wall to be visited?
A: Yes. We will arrange English speaking tour guides to escort you from the beginning to the end. They have received special training in learning the history and construction of the Great Wall.

Q: Any tips on what dress to take for each of the seasons?
A: April, October, and Earlier November: long shorts, overcoat; May, June, July and August: Summer dress - many T-shirts shorts; December, January and early early February: winter hat with ear flap, ear warmers, gloves, scarf, warm jackets and ther Winter Accessories.

Q: Do we have a van or car for our own use?
A: Yes. You have a van or car exclusively for your own use from the beginning to the end.
