Itinerary

  • Simatai Great Wall

    Distinct from other developed sections like Badaling and Mutianyu, renovations here have focused only on essential reinforcement work. Its original appearance is still preserved to let you feel the truly historic atmosphere. It was ranked first in the list of the 'World's Top 25 Scenic Spots' by the Times newspaper in 2012. A night tour can be undertaken in this section, offering you a different viewing experience. A cable car is available allowing visitors to save energy, making it possible for everyone to ascend it, even seniors and little kids.

Special Tour in Beijing

We would like to thank May and Catherine Lu Tours for give us this special moment at the Great Wall and Gubei Water City. May was very attention with us, as Wan, the driver. We hope meet you soon, in Beijing. Amanda & Andre

Simatai Great Wall Night Tour with overnight Stay at Gubei Water Town

Published on Nov, 2024

Amazing trip to Simatai Great Wall. The night view below was breathtaking, give us an idea on how the soldiers guarded the towns below, totally giving the soldiers a sense of responsibility. Gubei water town was very pretty. Although this place is rebuilt, it gives us a good idea of a water town in the olden times. The drone show was quite nice too. We were very happy with our guide, James, who is very knowledgeable, adjusted to our pace and brought us to the right places for the right photos! Being in the onset set of winter means reduced crowd and a different feel of the place.

Beautiful Night Hike at Simatai Great Wall

Published on Nov, 2024

The most amazing night view. The great wall illuminated with lights with the guidance of our tour guide James. Very well taken care of while walking along this wild section of the great wall.

Amazing Beijing, Amazing Wendy !

Published on Oct, 2024

I did the full day Jinshanling and Simatai touring with Wendy from Catherine Lu Tours. Driver on time, impeccable service, Wendy went above and beyond explaining the cultural significance behind each site visited and took AMAZING photos all day ! Highly recommend Wendy and the team for Catherine Lu Tours for any tour whilst in Beijing !

Beautiful experience of the area

Published on Oct, 2024

Amazing experience!!! James and the driver was amazing. Friendly, patient people. Picked us up from the hotel and took us to Gubei water town. We explored the different parts and building significance. As my mother and I loves to buy little trinkets, James would recommend and translate to the local shops owners what we wanted. He was very sincere on when we wanted to take a break or go to eat for dinner. On the way up to the wall, James was continuing to tell us facts and history about the town and the wall itself. As someone who has slight leg injuries, James was really patient on how slow we walked on the wall and in the town. Overall, the trip was amazing and would recommend to everyone. We learnt a lot from him. :)
