Excellent, so professional and perfect for a solo traveler - The trip was perfectly organised. The punctuality was remarkable during the whole day and the knowledge of our guide was beyond abroad. The mini bus was pristine and well dressed driver. We were kindly offered water and warm clothes to travel. I really enjoyed our stop to have dinner in downtown. Cute local restaurant with delicious homemade food, local beer and good price. Definitely I will hire them again in my next layover there.

Tour with excellent guide - Excellent tour and best guide (Lisa) through the wall and the forbidden city. In my case I booked at the Terminal 3 counter and everything was very easy. I went down the wall slide, without a doubt the most fun option. They also sell SIM cards. It has been a long stopover very well spent. Thanks again to Lisa for her professionalism and friendliness!

The best! - Since we had a 13-hour layover at Beijing airport, we wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and booked a private tour to see the Great Wall of China. The punctuality of our guide Herbie and the smooth pickup from the airport put a positive note on the day. Herbie's passion for the subject enriched the tour and made it both educational and entertaining, complemented by impressive photography skills. The day ended with a delicious dinner at a local Chinese restaurant. Highly recommended for an unforgettable trip to the Great Wall of China.

A "Once in a lifetime" experience - The "Great Wall and Forbidden City" Tour was super well organized. Lisa was such a caring, patient and lovely tour guide and her english is more than excellent. I was especially impressed by the excellent timing as we arrived at the Great Wall early in the day with not too many tourists there and the Forbidden City in the afternoon with beautiful sunset light. Even I was pretty exhausted from my long flight from Europe without any sleep, the amazing tour kept me totally awake, lifely and full of energy. Overall Beijing Layover Tours provided me a "Once in a lifetime" experience I can highly recommend.
