Quick visit in Beijing
Our tour was wonderful, we could spend our limited time in Beijing very efficiently. Our tour guide took us to the Tiananmen square and the Great Wall. Unfortunately, the Forbidden city was closed. We learnt so much about Chinese history and society from our guide.
Response from the operator: the 30K entrance tickets of Forbidden city sold out in 5 mins, it is better book our tour 7 days in advance. Thank you very much

Awesome but pricey 8 Hours in Beijing
We only had a short layover in China and were thrilled to get such a wonderful tour with our excellent guide, May Wang. She spoke fluent English and made the experience so much more valuable to us with her great knowledge. May was professional and courteous as well as personable and friendly. She was prompt and by securing all the tickets and passes for us and capably kept us moving to maximize our brief time in China. We enjoyed our tour of the Mutianyu Great Wall, a traditional Jade-carving studio, Tiananmen Square, and the Temple of Heaven and its surrounding gardens, with included lunch. May took and emailed her wonderful pictures of us at all the sights so the trip will long be remembered! The price of this tour is high, though, compared to similar tours that pick you up from your hotel. We also had a surprise charge of 240 CNY for a chair lift (not cable car) ride up to the Great Wall even though the tour description said the Great Wall was included.
Response from the operator: So glad you liked May Wang's "fluent English." She will be thrilled to hear your review. We are working on the price issues you mentioned.

Great Wall experience
Booked a tour to the Great Wall with this company last minute and they were able to accommodate me perfectly. I loved every second of this tour. What could make it more perfect you might ask? Well my tour guide Jerry was FANTASTIC. He went above and beyond all of my expectations. If you ever plan to visit the wall make sure to request him, because you won’t regret it. We were also with a driver Tom who was very nice and polite. They both made my experience great and super comfortable. When I come back to Beijing I will definitely be contacting Jerry again for more tours of his beautiful city.

Happy to recommend!
Booking a trip with Mark made our short stay in Beijing much easier and more enjoyable than it could have been otherwise - everything was so uncomplicated and stressfree, we didn't have to worry about anything. We were picked up from the airport and did a Mutianyu Great Wall tour first - our driver Martin took care of everything: buying our tickets, recommending a place to eat and had a bunch of useful tips. Afterwards he drove us to the city, first Tiananmen Square and then Jingshan Park (from where we could see the Forbidden City - insider tip from Mark :)), as Forbidden City is closed on Mondays. We were totally happy with everything and decided to book another trip for our return journey from Vietnam (another 20+ hour layover in Beijing...). This time we visited the Summer Palace with another friendly and helpful driver (whose name unfortunately I can't remember). It was just as enjoyable as our first trip and we loved the Summer Palace - an absolute must-see, if you're in Beijing! Here we could also use some helpful tips from our driver. Also the email communication with Mark as well as the payment process and all other organizational stuff went very smoothly. Don't hestitate to book a trip, if you're in Beijing, it will save you some times and nerves in this bustling city.

Why this scores 69

Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P) cost?
+
Prices start at $21 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 Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P) take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 10 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 Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P)?
+
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 Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P)?
+
Around 4 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mutianyu Great Wall Toboggan Ride EarlyBird MiniGroupTour(MM15P) 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.
