Hi,

Travelling to beijing on my own (female) want to visit the Mutianyu section of the wall, think from what I reading best way is a taxi, however will I be safe getting a taxi there and back on my own?

I think you will be safe. Just take normal precautions when taking a taxi.

Otherwise,there are backpacker tours to the Great Wall.

For example:

on my own

Or, try the tour with Leo Hostel: www.leohostel.com/index_files/leotours.htm

Hire a car or taxi but have them wait for you.

Hire a private car from a local or taxi while please keet the car with you. It will be hard to find a car back there,sometimes you will find some black car. they would charge more but do not have insurance.

im going for a short trip to beijing on my own in April so ive pre-booked a trip the the mutianyu section of the wall.

These are the guys i booked with:
