Mutianyu Great Wall: The 15 Best Tours

157 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.9 average  ·  from $17

Mutianyu is the Wall section most first visits choose, and for good reason: a cable car or chairlift up, restored battlements to walk, and a toboggan run back down. The 15 below differ on transport, group size and how long you get on the wall itself.

“What a fantastic trip to Mutianyu Great Wall! The weather was beautiful, making our visit even more enjoyable. We walked both the eastern and western sections, which were breathtakingly beautiful. Riding the cable car and sliding down on the toboggan were absolute highlights—so much fun! Our guide Amelia was professional and knowledgeable. She gave wonderful explanations about the history of Beijing and the Great Wall in fluent, easy-to-understand English. She also helped us with ticket purchases and guided us throughout the trip, saving us a lot of time. The food in Mubus Family was tasty and satisfying. The whole tour was well-arranged and stress-free. We truly had a great time…”

“This was the favourite part of our Beijing trip. The views were spectacular especially with the autumn leaves. Our tour guide Kevin was so helpful and knowledgeable, he gave us all the tips and advice on the way to the wall so we knew what to expect when we got there. We decided to do both the West and East sections of the wall which was manageable with the kids. Although we had to pay extra, we loved the cable car ride up and down the West section. And the ski lift up and toboggan down the East section which was so much fun. Definitely worth the money. Be aware…”

“This is a reasonably priced no-frills journey, but nonetheless gets the job done. Mutianyu is way better than Badaling, but further out and the roads are fairly poxy. This is about 10am to 6.30pm. (plus metro). It's a 2 hour bus ride too. If you are a medium / older walker , or want to keep the "extras" price down, then I suggest the following... and not do what they say. (been there 3 times). Buy a one way ticket on the west (north) cable car (not cableway), then walk across an hour plus tto the east (south) (ie turn right at top cablecar). At tower 6 walk down the…”
