Best way to spend a day - Not only was Herbie an excellent tour guide but he was the perfect layover tour guide. He made everything smooth and easy so I didn’t have to worry about anything. He understood when I fell asleep in the car or when I was a bit sluggish and kept everything on an even keel. I couldn’t recommend this more highly. Despite my short layover (9hours) we managed to see both the forbidden city and the Great Wall! I don’t imagine we could do so much. I’ve never visited China before and this was definitely a bucket list trip. He as even able to take some wonderful photos for me.

Herbie was awesome! - Herbie was an awesome tour guide! Attentive, knowledgeable and patient with my lack of balance on stairs (Great Wall, definitely worth it) and my son wandering off in search of the perfect photo.

Amazing Customized & Private Beijing Layover Tour!! - I recently had a 36-hour layover in Beijing, China, and what better option than booking a customized private tour?! I booked one full day and one half day private tour through Beijing Layover Tour and it was absolutely fabulous!! I chose 5 sights to see and they suggested an itinerary based on the locations and their knowledge of best times to go! Mutianyu Great Wall, Summer Palace, Tiananmen Square, Imperial Palace, and Temple of Heaven all on my 36 hour layover! Mr. Herbie, my tour guide, planned perfectly for the locations and avoiding the largest of crowds! He took some of the best pictures, being a solo traveler, with great ideas for some awesome shots!! And the food he suggested was phenomenal! My personal driver, Mr. John, knew all the best routes and several times took detours to avoid some major traffic jams! I would highly recommend this tour company and definitely ask for Mr. Herbie!
