How it happened
It was once when leading a hiking trip in the summer of 2007 that he came across Wild Great Wall hiking experience is so wonderful –to be more accurate, the best way to really experience the Great Wall is to pass through it on foot. Then he suggested his clients, friends Wild Great Wall hiking & camping countless times and they returned back from their trip very very pleased. Simply put, Wild Great Wall hiking & camping has never let him down.
Without any hesitation he left his trip leading job to bring his passion for organizing Great Wall hiking & camping to more than just his friends and family. His hiking experiences and knowledge of Great Wall have given him all the confidence in building an interesting website. Afterwards, WildGreatWall Adventure Tours was born – dedicated to providing quality Wild Great Wall holidays.

In addition to Asia, He has recently travelled through Spain, Western Europe and Egypt. Besides travel, he likes to spend his spare time tinkering on his guitar, hiking Wild Great Wall with his wife and friends.
See you on the Wall
Ricky says: ” I didn’t grow up hiking. I haven’t climbed Everest nor have I hiked Mount Kilimanjaro, but I have created a lot of great adventure experiences, inspired people to discover the world around them. Our goal is to help people get into Wild Great Wall. I can’t wait to meet you when you’re in Beijing! There is so much to see and do, you do need someone to organize it. Please drop us an email and we can discuss a tour that suits you.”

Favorite travel quote? “What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do – especially in other people’s minds. When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road.” ~William Least Heat Moon, Blue Highways
