Another Great Wall Question !!!!!

Looking through various guide books and posts on this forum , it seems the best way to do the Wall would be to head towards Simatai and Jinshanling and maybe walk from 1 to the other. The questions I have are :





1. It will be late March - what clothes should we be wearing ?



2. Transport - should we pay roughly us$100 for a car %26amp; guide who I assume would drop us off in one location and arrange to pick us up in the other or should we just hire a cab for the day for roughly us$50 and again be picked up and dropped off as before ?



3. Obviously these areas seem to be alot quieter than Badaling so need we worry about arriving early to avoid the crowds ?



4. Is there a best time of day to be on the Wall ?





Thank You



Another Great Wall Question !!!!!


2) I would pick the latter.



3) Not really.



4) Have heard from other travellers that sunrise/sunset is good. But I guess it%26#39;s only really an option if you%26#39;re staying overnight.
