From Bernard Rosenberg; Sarasota, Florida USA
I had the opportunity to utilize the guided services of Wang Ping during July of 2005. That summer was my first trip to China, and had it not been for his organization and skills, I never would have made to a remote section of the Great Wall on my own. He led me to a fantastic journey and I savored every moment of it.
Unguided adventures in this region can¡¯t be done on your own. Traffic is a nightmare, remote lodgings are unadvertised, and maps to the way up and down simply aren¡¯t in print. The only way you get it is through someone in the know, and that¡¯s why I chose Wang.
Wang¡¯s English is good, his driving skills are satisfactory, and his knowledge about the wall is terrific. He was punctual in picking me up and very caring throughout the entire trip. He absolutely knows his way around, and this was evident from the very start to the very end. I felt secure with him, and he was worth every cent of what I paid.
There is only one word to describe my overall experience and that word is intimate. I had a Chinese guide, stayed in a Chinese setting, ate Chinese food, met Chinese friends, and climbed a Chinese piece of history. Throughout it all I felt special and privileged, and I didn¡¯t even see another Westerner. This was local immersion at its finest.
And as far as being on the Great Wall goes I must say that it left me breathless. It is an astounding feeling knowing that you are climbing onto one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that has been left for the modern traveler. My feeling of accomplishment in doing this trip will never leave me, and I¡¯ll brag about forever. It simply was that good.
