Unfortunately the section...
Unfortunately the section of the wall we wished to go on was forced to close due to weather. Our tour guide Christine was great to organise a different route in short notice to ensure we got the chance to see the wall. She was really friendly and helpful and made our trip to the Great Wall a memorable experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you for choosing us. We have professional travel guidance and can arrange your travel itinerary in a reasonable way, making it a pleasant trip to Beijing for you. Next, we will not slack off and will do our best to provide you with comprehensive services. Thank you for your evaluation and encouragement. BUSDA will definitely manage with dedication and forge ahead. I also look forward to continuing to follow BUSDA. All employees of Bastar wish you a happy life and smooth work!!! I wish you a beautiful mood like a flower.

BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall cost?
+
Prices start at $23 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beijing is not rushed.
Is BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beijing can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beijing within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Beijing?
+
On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Temple Heaven, Lama Temple, Summer Palace & Peking Duck Bus Tour, Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Sightseeing Full-day Group Tours, Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Beijing?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Beijing?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in BusDa:Afternoon Sightseeing Bus Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall?

Not included: Cable car 140rmb per person(optional); Toboggan 140rmb per person(optional); Personal expenses; and Personal travel accident insurance. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
