A lovely evening on the wall.
We had a nice tour as a family. What was especially nice was our guide Serve. She spoke English or tried and made sure we had a good time, understood what was intended and arrived safely at the bus again. Besides our family there were two more Italians in a bus further with Chinese travelers. The wall was very quiet. We were almost alone. And it was nicely illuminated once the sun had set.
Response from the operator: We hebben een fijne tour beleefd als gezin. Wat vooral fijn was was onze gids Diendien. Ze sprak Engels of probeerde het en zorgde ervoor dat wij een goede tijd hadden, begrepen wat de bedoeling was en weer veilig bij de bus aankwamen. Naast ons gezin waren er nog twee Italianen in een bus verder met Chineze reizigers. De muur was heel rustig. We waren bijna alleen. En deze werd mooi verlicht toen de zon eenmaal onder was.

An unforgettable memory
Guide Ami, super involved as the tour was cancelled several times due to a storm and had to assemble and disassemble it several times, very attentive. The spectacular wall, to be able to see it with light and at night.

nice experience
Visiting the Great Wall of China was an unforgettable experience. The tour was well-organized, starting with a scenic drive from Beijing to the Mutianyu section, which was less crowded and surrounded by lush green mountains. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared fascinating stories about the Wall’s history, construction, and strategic importance. Climbing the steep steps was challenging but incredibly rewarding — the panoramic views from the top were breathtaking. There were plenty of photo opportunities, and the cable car option made the descent easier. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting China. It’s truly a must-see wonder of the world!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your praise. Your words are like a spring that nourishes our hearts. We will cherish your praise even more, constantly improve and strive to do better. Thank you for your support. Busda wishes you a happy life and everything goes well!

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
BusDa-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does BusDa-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket cost?
+
Prices start at $43 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-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket take?
+
Plan for about 6 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-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 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-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket?
+
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-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book BusDa-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket?
+
Around 2 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does BusDa-Sunset Glow at Badaling Great Wall Night Bus Tour w/ Ticket 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 Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options, Beijing: Top 6 Highlights All Inclusive 2-Day Private Tour, Private Mutianyu Great Wall Trip With English-Speaking Driver. 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.
