Fantastic stress-free layover tour to The Great Wall - I had an 8h layover with my fiancé in Beijing and wanted to make the most of it - I can not recommend this tour enough. Communication was excellent from the moment of booking and they were very flexible with changing flight times and adapted the tour to us.
Specifically - Herbie, our guide was incredible. He gave us a thorough but entertaining summary of Chinese history in the drive to the tour and was very knowledgable. He also gave us brilliant insights into daily life in Beijing and made us very excited to return and visit Beijing again soon for longer.

100/100 recommend - Herbie is our man! He is very knowledgeable and he made our 12 hours layover memorable! It’s not an everyday thing to be in Thailand, China and UK all in the span of 2 days, but he kept our attention up (regardless our 2 hours sleep) and brought us back to the airport just in time for our flight.
Thank you Herbie!

Great Wall of china in 5 hours return from Airport - What a great experience it was. The guide Herbie waited for me at Starbucks just outside the international arrivals. We both went to the car, driven by Mr. John and I found a very needed bottle of water, considering how hot the day was going to be. Herbie speaks fluent English and he gave me a little background of the Chinese economy, the villages around Beijing and of course about the Wall. We arrived quite early and there were very few people at 8:30am. I walked up the stairs and met him at gate 6. From there we descended toward gate 5, till we arrived to gate 4. From there I walked a bit longer by myself to take pictures and met Herbie back. He took some really good photos of me. I went to the tour by myself as my friend wasn’t allowed to leave the airport for Visa reasons.
We walked back to the car part after 1.5 hour. We left the wall at 10:35 and got to the airport at 11:50. With plenty of time to go through security and passport control again.
If you have a layover in Beijing, I strongly recommend you to use this company. They’ve been following my updates throughout the entire journey. They provided a professional service. Five star service.

Excellent Herbie as a guide - Great wall from the airport - Hello, I recommend taking them to visit the Great Wall of China. We landed at Beijing airport, and Herbie, our excellent guide, picked us up right on time near the Starbucks. We drove there, and we were the only ones. We took the cable car, took plenty of photos, and made memories. During the journey, Herbie told us the history of China and the Great Wall. Excellent service, thank you very much, Herbie!

Great time on the Great Wall - We had a great time!
Our guide Herbie has excellent English skills and told us plenty of details about the great wall and how it is connected to the history of China.
He also helped us find the best spots for pictures and took picture of us and with us 😀
Completely recommended!

Morning Trip to Great Wall with Herbie - What a wonderful use of a layover! Our guide Herbie, was accommodating and informative. Though our flight was a bit earlier than most, he adjusted the schedule for us to have more time and picked us up promptly at our hotel. Herbie took us to multiple places on the wall and gave us a lot of historical information. He is also a blooming photographer and managed to get perfect photos right after sunrise! This layover trip was perfect and even better than the reviews indicated. Make the most of your time, and request Herbie to make your time unforgettable.

Excellent - Did the Great Wall tour during our short stop over at Beijing airport. Found the join in group suystem excellent as sometimes the visa queues can be long.
Booking was very easy at the desk on exit of the airport.
Our guide was Johnson - he had good English, was very interesting, and gave us a god overview of the Great Wall and a little about Beijing. We hopped onto a bus with about 6 other. The company ensures we made it back to the airport so that we could make it for our flight. We spent about 1.5hrs at the Great Wall and it took about 1hr to drive there. We took the gondola up and the tomoban back down.
Seeing the Great Wall is a bucket list trip and its fantastic to have this servcie available for this transiting through China.
