Mutianyu Great Wall and Summer Palace - Mutianyu Great Wall is less crowded. You will save sometime is you take the cable car to the top of the Wall. Beautiful view as compare to Badaling. Would strongly recommend to visit the Summer Palace during sunset.

Fantastic experience at the Great Wall - Highly recommend - having spent a fantastic day with Helena on Tuesday at the Forbidden City (see review from Sue N) , we contacted Emily again to see if there was last minute availability for a private tour to the Great Wall. Again, Emily was very responsive and was able to meet our special request for a day trip on Thursday and of course we asked for Helena! We were leaving Beijing on a late train on Thursday and really appreciated the flexibility to spend slightly longer at the Great Wall (so that we could hike up to the highest point), skip lunch and reduce the amount of time at the Summer Palace. Again, Helena was very knowledgeable and even taught us some key Chinese words (beer...) and pronounciation during the car journey as well as responding positively to my dad’s jokes... We took the cable car up to the wall and the toboggan back down - well worth doing!
