Do we have to take a cable car? Will we have enough time on the Wall without a cable car? How much does cable car cost?

Nicolas

Does anyone know the price for the tips of the driver and guide for this tour ?

Traveler
Normally it is a RMB30-50 per person per day as the tips. It is surely on your own will.
