Description
Experience the Great Wall of China like never before with a helicopter tour. Choose between two routes and enjoy a smooth, comfortable flight in a Robinson R44 helicopter, one of the world’s best-selling light helicopters.
Take off from Mutianyu Helicopter Base and cruise low along the Great Wall’s main contour. Cover 22 watchtowers and winding walls in Mutianyu’s core section. During the flight, see the Great Wall undulating over mountain ridges—golden walls against verdant mountains form a stunning scene.
Spot the contrast between the 'Jiankou Wild Great Wall' and Mutianyu’s restored section, feeling the dialogue between natural erosion and human restoration. Pass landmarks like beacon tower groups and the Great Wall cable car hub—perfect for time-pressed tourists wanting an aerial view. As the helicopter maintains an altitude of around 100 meters, sense changes in wind speed and light while capturing details of the wall bricks and watchtower structures, making this a top pick for photographers.
Meanwhile, you can also take a hike on the Great Wall. You can take the cable car or slide down the slideway on the Great Wall to feel the grandeur of the Great Wall up close. You don't have to worry about transportation either. We will arrange a special car to pick you up and drop you off in Beijing.
Another very important point is that if you have a few days to visit Beijing, please don't schedule your Great Wall visit on the last day of your itinerary. This is because flights may be temporarily grounded due to unexpected weather changes and other objective reasons. Therefore, it's better not to plan it for the last day to allow for flexible adjustment of your schedule.
