Relaxing, easy and informative day as a family.
We had a wonderful experience on this tour- our driver Mark spoke great English and gave great explanations about everything we saw. He gave us free time at the wall, then took us to a great local restaurant away from all the tourists for an amazing and super cheap lunch. Thanks for a great day!

Best Great Wall Tour Guide
Jim was an amazing tour guide. He met us directly in the lobby of our hotel. He offered food during our ride in the car. He told us facts about the great wall. He also helped take pictures of us along the great wall. He was an amazing tour guide and we would give him more than 5 stars if we could. He did such an amazing job!

Great, punctual English speaking driver
Kind English speaking driver. He gave us clear instructions about where to take the gondola, and the toboggan and where to meet him after. He was right on time and gave us a heads up of his arrival about 10min in advance. All in all, everything went smoothly and we would definitely recommend.

Amazing Day With The Great Wall!
From the beginning, this was a great tour. Liu Ciao was promptly waiting for us in our hotel lobby. We communicated using the translator app and that worked just fine. It was really fun getting to Know Liu. I highly recommend you go to the wall as early as possible to avoid crowds. Liu was great in guiding us to avoid any mistakes or things that would make it a bad trip. He had a lot of great tips for climbing the wall, as well as taking the toboggan down. Liu was waiting for us at the end of the tour. He did an amazing job from start to finish I. Taking care of us, providing water and giving us a safe ride while giving us great tips to fully enjoy our experience. We would 100% do this again with Liu. Thank you!

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down cost?
+
Prices start at $49 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 Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 77 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 Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down?
+
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 Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down?
+
Around 27 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Mutianyu Great Wall Day Tour with Toboggan Slide down 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.
