Great Wall of China Tours & Trips
What if you explored China's Great Wall properly? Not just the touristy Badaling part, but hiking wild sections like Jiankou, staying near less-crowded areas. The Great Wall stretches thousands of kilometres - some sections are restored, others crumbling through mountains. You'll trek along actual wall rather than just visiting, camp nearby and experience this incredible structure beyond the day-trip crowds.

What a great experience! The 8 days were packed with landmarks and activities that fulfilled many of our China bucket list items. Our guides, Eddie, Kelly (in Luoyang) and Cathy (in Xi' an), were knowledgeable and well organized, allowing us to maximize our days. Eddie, who was with us the whole trip, handled our affairs (hotels, admissions, travel tickets, etc ) allowing us to move place to place with ease. Eddie is the best! Also, we had a great group of travelers that made the tour even more enjoyable. Great tour
