5 STAR TRIP!
I've been on this tour twice now - Peter is a fantastic tour guide, as is Noodle (also great name). Both experiences were absolutely unforgettable. If you're looking for an authentic, off-the-beaten-path adventure, this is it. Peter is a fantastic host—warm, funny, and incredibly attentive to the needs of his guests. From the moment you arrive, you can tell he genuinely cares about making your experience special. His knowledge of the Wall and the surrounding area is amazing, and he makes sure you’re comfortable every step of the way. The section of the Great Wall we camped is amazing—far from the crowds of the more touristy parts. This area feels truly authentic, with much of the Wall still in its original, less-reconstructed state, and the views of the mountains and countryside are breathtaking. According to Peter, the best time is during a full moon! One of the most memorable parts of the experience was the home-cooked dinner Peter organised at a local family’s house. This gave us an incredible insight into the region’s cuisine and a real feel for traditional life in rural China. The family was so welcoming and friendly—it felt like we were part of their home. Then, the next day, Peter took us to an outstanding Peking Duck restaurant back in Beijing—a perfect way to cap off the trip. I honestly think this has been the best thing I’ve done in China. If you’re looking for something more authentic and truly immersive, Peter’s camping trips on the Great Wall should be at the top of your list!

Flawless experience, and very memorable
Every step of the way Peter had everything planned very well. We never felt rushed, but we got everywhere on time. We got to experience so much even with our limited time, and I would highly recommend the trip to anyone. The food stops were great, the Great Wall was amazing, and it was all around and incredible and worry free adventure.
Response from the operator: Thank you my bro, next time let's drink together.

Amazing Great Wall Experience!
I was visiting during Golden Week and so it was one of the busiest times of the year yet Peter found us a quiet area of the Wall that wasn’t crowded with tourists. It was one of my top ten experiences that I’ve ever done, definitely recommend!

Best Great Wall Experience
My boyfriend and I did this in May and again in October! Peter is the best guide and the part of the wall he brings you to is so cool! It’s not crowded at all and feels so special. It’s definitely something you should do if you want to see the wall! 10/10 recommend.
Response from the operator: Thank you Anna for the highly recommend hope to see you James and his friends next year

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing cost?
+
Prices start at $200 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 Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing 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 Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing?
+
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 Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing?
+
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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Camp On The Great Wall Sunset Sunrise Private from Beijing 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.
