Nuestra guía Lola fue muy profesional . Además de explicarnos cuestiones sobre la gran muralla , respondió todas nuestras dudas sobre cultura e historia china . Después de visita nos propuso varias alternativas que escogimos libremente sin presionarnos en nada . Guía sobresaliente Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide, Lola, was very professional. In addition to explaining things to us about the Great Wall, she answered all our questions about Chinese culture and history. After the tour, she suggested several alternatives, which we chose freely without any pressure. Outstanding guide. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nuestra guía Lola fue muy excelente. Nos explicó muchas historias de la zona con un muy buen nivel del idioma. Teníamos que ir a Mutianyu, pero estaba cerrado por mal tiempo, y nos llevaron a Badaling, con lo que no se canceló el tour (otros tours se cancelaron sin alternativa posible).

Our guide, Lola, was excellent. She told us a lot of stories about the area and spoke excellent English. We were supposed to go to Mutianyu, but it was closed due to bad weather, and they took us to Badaling, so the tour wasn't canceled (other tours were canceled with no alternative).

Contratamos la excursión a la Gran Muralla y resultó un desastre. El día anterior se anunció oficialmente el cierre y no nos avisaron. Aun así vinieron a recogernos y ofrecieron alternativas improvisadas que no tenían sentido. La guía apenas hablaba español, lo que dificultó resolver la situación. Además, pedí que me contactaran y 12h después sigo sin respuesta. Mala organización y nula atención al cliente.

We booked the Great Wall excursion, and it turned out to be a disaster. The closure was officially announced the day before, and we weren't informed. They still came to pick us up and offered improvised alternatives that made no sense. The guide barely spoke Spanish, which made the situation difficult to resolve. I also asked to be contacted, and 12 hours later, I still haven't heard back. Poor organization and zero customer service.

Visita acelerada, con un guía con muy poco interés en compartir con nosotros la Historia de su monumento, y mucho más interés en llevarnos a comprar cosas que no estaban en el tour, no habíamos solicitado, y en las que no teníamos ningún interés.

A fast-paced tour, with a guide with very little interest in sharing the history of his monument with us, and much more interest in taking us to buy things that weren't included in the tour, that we hadn't requested, and in which we had no interest.

Nuestro equipo local se esfuerza por realizar la visita completa dentro del tiempo ofertado. Sentimos si el ritmo que se siguió no resultó del agrado de todos los participantes. Seguiremos esforzándonos por mejorar en este o cualquier otro aspecto que sea necesario. Translate this opinion into English.

La muralla imprescindible, la guia Lola estupenda, fue muy amable y gracias a ella pudimos hacer la excursión como estaba recomendado. El problema fue que nos habian sacado billetes para subir y bajar en el funicular sin preguntarnos y es fundamental sino quieres caminar mucho subir con el funicular y bajar con el telesilla o tobogan y asi recorrer el tramo entre los dos. Tuvimos que pagar la bajada a parte y luego la guia nos lo descontó del total, parece que tuvo que pagarlo de su bolsillo.

The wall was essential. Our guide, Lola, was wonderful. She was very friendly, and thanks to her, we were able to do the excursion as recommended. The problem was that they had given us tickets to go up and down on the funicular without asking us. It's essential, if you don't want to walk a lot, to go up on the funicular and down on the chairlift or slide, and then cover the distance in between. We had to pay for the descent separately, and then the guide deducted it from the total; it seems she had to pay for it out of her own pocket.

Sentimos si algún aspecto del servicio no resultó de vuestro agrado. Agradecemos y tomamos nota de los comentarios para seguir mejorando en lo posible. Translate this opinion into English.

Decidimos coger este tour en vez de ir por libre por hacer una visita guiada y que alguien nos explicase la historia etc. El vehículo que nos llevó viejo y con olor a rancio a parte de que el conductor conducía muy rápido y brusco. El guía… o mejor dicho el acompañante, básico, todo el camino de ida callado (80minutos) y una vez allí nos acompañó por la muralla pero no nos explicó nada más que alguna pregunta que le hicimos Nos dijo que había ido 4 veces…. El camino de vuelta lo hizo durmiendo…

We decided to take this tour instead of going on our own, so we could get a guided tour and have someone explain the history, etc. The vehicle that took us was old and smelled musty, and the driver was very fast and abrupt. The guide... or rather, the companion, was basic, silent the entire way there (80 minutes). Once there, he accompanied us along the wall, but didn't explain anything to us other than a few questions we asked. He told us he'd been there four times... He slept on the way back...
