Zanbus: Trip To The Jinshanling Great Wall Departing At 7:30 Am

We had a fantastic tour to the Jinshanling Great Wall. Our guide Divina and the driver were both excellent. We were given very precise directions as to where/when/how prior to arriving at the Wall. Well organized and easy to understand everything. I also like the fact that we were given ~5 hours of free time to explore at our own pace, which was more than plenty to hike to the main towers. My third time to visit the Great Wall and this was by far my favorite section - away from the crowds, challenging hike, and more authentic/ancient section of the Wall.. Definitely recommend this tour.

the guide was super helpful and friendly! made a map herself with the distances and explained well where to go. Loved that we had the possibility to explore by ourselves.

Very friendly guide (Brown), well run bus routes (Zanbus)

From the start Ally provided clear communication and set things of on the right foot. Easy to find meeting point, Ally was there to great us all. The day was smoother than expected. Ally provided clear expectations for the day and instructions on how to enjoy the best part of the Great Wall, Jinshanling. More than enough time to see everything and take photos and videos of this picturesque, not busy, part of the Great Wall. Thanks Ally! I highly recommend

The tour was incredible, super punctual, and the meeting point was easy to find! Along the way, our guide David shared the history of the Wall in a very entertaining way, and once we arrived, he accompanied us throughout the entire route, even though we were free to explore on our own! It was undoubtedly the best choice; there were no crowds, at times you were walking along the Wall all by yourself, and the weather was perfect! Highly recommended!

it was really easy to find the meeting place, the zanbus tour guide was really helpful and there weren't many people at the wall which was great. really recommend!

Jinshanling Great Wall is definitely the highlight inside the Great Wall. We followed the Zan Bus group to Jinshanling, which had five hours of sightseeing. Our guide David also gave a detailed explanation of the Great Wall. We set off at 7:30 in the morning, and the meeting point is convenient to find—right next to the Beijing Regent Hotel, in the parking lot. Highly recommended.Because Jinshanling is quite far from Beijing and requires at least two and a half hours by car, but there are very few tourists there and the scenery is especially beautiful, so everything was worth it. 金山岭长城绝对是长城里面的精华 我们跟着赞巴士的团去了金山岭 有五个小时游玩时间 导游david还对长城做了具体的讲解 早晨七点半出发，出发集合地点方便寻找就在北京丽晶酒店旁边停车场 强烈推荐

Nice tour at Jinshanling Great wall. We very enjoyed today with the guide

Really enjoyed the tour at Jinshanling Great Wall. Everything was organized.

Great experience! The drive is long but clearly stated in the description. I would definitely go again. Well organized, excellent communication and thanks to our guide Divina! She was really good.

It was an amazing tour :) Our guide Divina did a great job, and explain some history of the Great Wall. Pick-up and drop-off worked perefctly and were on time :) Also the time on the Great Wall is largely enough and our guide explained well, what the different options are to hike the wall :)

Great experience with few crowds. This section of the Great Wall keeps its original charm. Zanbus service is excellent.

Fantastic trip. Communication from Zanbus was excellent via WhatsApp. Icy was in charge and she did an excellent job, giving us a brief history lesson and telling us where to go and where to be for getting home. Bus ride was smooth sailing also. No issues. The Jinshanling section of the wall is excellent. Highly recommended.

The trip was great giving us plenty of time to explore at our own speed. Our tour guide Maggie was fantastic, very helpful, and kept checking the tour members to make sure no one is left behind. The mini bus stopped for toilet breaks too. Highly recommended.

David was a great guide, keeping track of everyone along the wall, giving lots of interesting background and history on both the wall and beijing. He took photos for us including group and I divide all photos. Everything ran on time. The bus is new and clean. I would recommend.

5/5 experience. Lucy, our tour leader, provided clear WhatsApp instructions for the meeting/pickup point the evening before. It also allowed me to set expectations and prepare for the day ahead. Once on the bus, Lucy mentioned some fun facts about the Wall and provided an illustration of the Great Wall map so I could plan my time on the East and West sections of the Jinshanling wall. Her English was perfectly fine to comprehend throughout. I had about 4-5 hours to explore the Great Wall as I wished, which I think was sufficient time to take in the views and click pictures. I would recommend first walking on the semi-restored West section of the wall for fewer people. Overall the tour was organized smoothly and the bus dropped us off around 6pm. I recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore the Great Wall as a full-day activity.

Convenient shuttle to and from Jinshanling with tickets included. We had plenty of time at this beautiful section of the wall. Highly recommend!

Perfect experience with Zanbus. The service was on time and the staff on board was available. You can do the ticket for both the Great wall entry and the cable car on bus without paying an extra price.. so easy. super recommended for your visit to The Mutianyu Great Wall!

It went really well, the bus was on time both ways, and they left just enough time to walk around the wall. Maggie was our guide during the bus tour and explained everything really well, super efficient and attentive.

Knowledgeable guide and excellent organization. Great experience.

Our Zanbus guide Brown was very kind and attentive at all times

Superb experience, the wall visited with few tourists, it was great. Breathtaking landscapes

Wielki Mur w Jinshanling robi ogromne wrażenie, a organizacja była bez zarzutu. Największym plusem była nasza przewodniczka, Divina była po prostu super! Bardzo pomocna, sympatyczna i zorganizowana. Dzięki niej ten dzień był idealny. Bardzo polecam!

The tour went great. On-time departure as indicated in the reservation. Our guide, Dao, confirmed the activity the previous afternoon recalling meeting point and time. He has accompanied us back and forth, removed the entrances for us and accompanied us during the tour along the wall giving us space and time to walk at our own pace. The chosen route begins at Zhuanduokou Pass and proceeds east to East five-window tower, so it combines a large part of the restored wall with unrestored stretches. The difficulty of the route is medium, not very complicated but it can be tired for some people depending on physical form. Anyway, considering that we have visited this section of the wall in the middle of Golden Week, there has been no saturation of people except for some more concentration in the sections near the lift climb in the restored area. In the unrestored sections, there have been times when we have not agreed with more people. Undoubtedly a highly recommended tour if you have the transportation time (2h round trip, 3h return) to enjoy a wonder of the world away from the crowds.
