Beijing Layover Tour to Mutianyu Great Wall with English Speaking Guide

It was a very smooth experience and a great tour to the Great Wall. Our tour guide Lina was very sweet and knowledgeable.

We loved our tour to the Great Wall and the Summer Palace, all thanks to our guide Thomas Tang. He was an exceptional guide, very attentive, pleasant and we learned a lot. He took us to eat at a very original place and even organized us a hotel after finishing and the tour so we could rest and then took us back to the airport, you can not ask for more. Thank you so much for everything Thomas!! Beijing is amazing!!

If you do this tour, make sure to go with William. Our arrival experience into Beijing airport was very rough, but the moment we met up with our guide William, our experience went from 0/10- 100/10. We were held up in customs for over 2 hours and the airport wifi didn’t work so we couldn’t communicate with our guide that we were running late. Once we finally were able to exit, we were so worried we missed our tour, but William was right up front with a sign for us. He waited the whole time! From the moment we were greeted until the moment we were dropped back off, easily became the highlight of our 3 week trip. William is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. He treated us like VVVIP and helped us skip all the lines. He catered every moment to exactly what we were looking for. He hurried through the tedious parts of the tour to make sure we had as much time as we wanted in the fun parts. Every detail of his service was exceptional and I can’t say enough great things. If you’re lucky enough to have time for lunch/dinner, let him take you to his local dining spot for some incredible food. He recommended several items I would not normally have ordered, but they all were easily my favorite items of my entire trip. If you have a long layover in Beijing, this is an absolute MUST and don’t forget to request William.

We booked this tour to see the Great Wall of China during our 1-day trip to Beijing. While we initially had some problems with the pickup times due to a small error by the organizers, they quickly resolved the issue when we contacted them. As compensation they bought us lunch, which we appreciated. While the guide we choose didn’t speak a lot of english, he was very helpful & kind, and with the help of Google Translate it worked out quite well. We can recommend!

Awesome Experience. BLT customised my tour to my specifications perfectly. On my layover I got to experience the Pandas at Beijing Zoo and visit the Great Wall. It was freezing cold in Beijing so few other tourists about meant no waiting times. I would recommend BLT to anyone considering maximising their layour time from Beijing Capital airport.

This tour was a fun way to see the Great Wall of China during a layover! Tony, my driver and guide, was very friendly, informative, and reliable. He was able to lend me a warm coat and his hotspot so I could send some of the amazing photos back to my family. Highly recommend this tour - thank you Tony for a great few hours!

Absolutely exceptional. We were met at the airport and taken to the nice car. We were driven to the Great Wall and guided through the gates and the tickets were bought for us. We did the cable car up and were guided through sections and told about the history. Our guide waited whilst we walked up further sections. We then got the toboggan down. We asked our guide to take us to a local place for lunch which he did and it was delicious. We were then driven back to the airport with plenty of time to spare. Highly recommend.

Tony is the best guide! The view was fantastic. Beautiful string of lights along the wall. The parking lot was very close to the wall and nice rest area. Lots of information about the history and Beijing. Great route to the top, will always remember it!

An unimaginable experience with an excellent tour guide. We were only here for a few hours, but it was more than worth it. A big thank you goes to Tony who welcomed us warmly and told us about the history of China.

Having to stop over in Beijing for only 20 hours during a trip to Australia, I decided to contact a guide to optimize the time and not risk getting lost or running into any problems in a city where it is not easy to find your way. Those interested can contact her at the email address ggannie_liu@126.com I also recommend it because it is not easy to find local tour guides who speak Italian well.
