Dear Clio,
This is just a mail to say thank you for your help. We were very pleased with your service as well as our fantastic guide, Grace, in Xian.
We had a great time, saw a lot of things and enjoyed the friendliness of all people we met.
We will certainly recommend other friends to contact you for assistance.
Thanks again!

Beijing Jiankou Great Wall Hiking and Trout Fishing One-Day Tour
Duration: 1 day Valid: from April to October Pick-up point and time: Your Hotel in Beijing around 8:30am Finishing point and time: Your Hotel in Beijing around 6:00pm Payment Types: Cash, Credit Cards, Wire We speak: English
Itinerary:
Pick up from your hotel around 8:30am and drive to the Jiankou Great Wall. Jiankou Great Wall is located in Huairou District, 10 km from Mutianyu Great Wall in the east, about 80 KM from downtown Beijing. This section of the Great Wall is said to be the most ruined and dangerous! On the way, you are lucky to pass through a natural village. Stop there for a few minutes taking some pictures. This is one of the most scenic stretch of Great Wall and most photoable around Beijing. This is the real great wall, not something like touristic Disney-style walls rebuilt to please you. The hike on the Jiankou Great Wall takes about 2-4 hours. The trout angling ponds are just located in a valley of the mountain. Actually the trout ponds are the breeeding ponds more than the fishing ponds! This area is the famous trout breeding centers in Beijing. Rainbows inhabit both lakes and streams. The water of the trout ponds here comes from the streams of the mountain. Rainbow Trout like colder running water temperatures. There are two kinds of trout - stocked trout and native trout. The trouts here are stocked trout.
You will get a simple fishing rod with fishing line, baits ( worms, minnows, mealworms, etc). Fishing the stocked tout is more of entertainment than of prefessional fishing. All the ponds here are full of trouts! Don't stand on the shore! Let's start fishing! When you catch one or two trouts, the local people will weigh the fish. We will pay the fish and get the fish either roasted and sliced raw for your lunch - yummy! The people will roast the fish in front of you. If you are bold enough, you may try a hand-on experience of the fishing roasting. Beside the trout dish, you will have the chance to try many local varieties of foods and wild leafy vegetables. After lunch, do a little hiking and then drive back to your hotel in the downtown Beijing.
