I had a free day during my business trip in Beijing, so I decided to make the most of it with a tour. Our guide, Nancy, was exceptional—her professionalism and extensive knowledge made the day truly special. We started at Tiananmen Square, where Nancy's insightful commentary on its historical significance added depth to our visit. Moving on to the Forbidden City, her explanations about the palace’s intricate architecture and history were both engaging and informative.

After a delicious lunch, we explored the Mutianyu Great Wall. Nancy’s tips on the best spots for photos and her detailed explanations about its history enhanced the experience. Our driver also played a key role, ensuring we traveled comfortably and efficiently between sites. We wrapped up at the Bird’s Nest, and Nancy’s insights into its design and significance rounded off the tour perfectly. With such a knowledgeable guide and smooth transportation, this day was a fantastic blend of historical exploration and modern marvels. Highly recommended!

Just wrapped up a full-day tour of Beijing and had to share how fantastic it was. Our guide was incredible—knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the city.
We were picked up right on time from our hotel, and the day kicked off smoothly. Our guide had a knack for making the history come alive with interesting stories and little-known facts about the places we visited, like the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. It felt like we were getting an insider’s view of Beijing that you just wouldn’t get from a guidebook.

Lunch was a highlight—our guide took us to a local spot where the locals eat. It was delicious and a great way to taste authentic Beijing dishes, away from the usual tourist traps.
The convenience of having everything taken care of, from pickup to drop-off, made the day stress-free. Our guide was super attentive, and their enthusiasm for Beijing was infectious. They answered all our questions, and their tips and recommendations really made the day special.
If you’re heading to Beijing and want a tour that’s informative, enjoyable, and well-organized, this is the way to go. The personal touch and in-depth knowledge of our guide made this day truly memorable. Highly recommended!

Our weekend in Beijing was truly unforgettable thanks to the excellent service from Beijing Private Tour. Shirley, our knowledgeable guide, made our first visit to Beijing a breeze with her fluent English and insightful commentary. Starting from our hotel pickup, we visited the iconic sights like the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, and Mutianyu Great Wall, savoring every moment at each spot. Shirley even helped us secure tickets to the Liyuan opera show after our tour, adding to the experience. Traveling via high-speed train from Shanghai was seamless and quick, making the journey both efficient and enjoyable. For anyone planning a Beijing trip from Shanghai, we highly recommend the convenience of high-speed trains.

This All-Inclusive Day Tour was absolutely the best choice for exploring Beijing! My parents and I had an incredible experience with Shirley as our guide and Mr. Xu as our attentive driver. Shirley's deep knowledge and perfect English made visiting the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square enriching and enjoyable. Mr. Xu ensured our comfort with cold water and efficient AC throughout the hot day. The tour was seamlessly flexible, accommodating my elderly parents' pace and preferences, like opting for a scenic boat ride at the Summer Palace instead of the Temple of Heaven. Exploring the old part of Beijing by rickshaw was a charming highlight. Booking was effortless, with prompt responses and detailed tour information provided. If I have the chance, I'd eagerly book this tour again for my husband and children. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Beijing!
