I highly recommend Mr Leo Liu who is trustworthy, reliable, caring and a very competent driver and guide during my recent trip with him to Mutianyu Great Wall, Forbidden City, and Summer Palace.
Thank you for your kind words and recommendation! It was a real pleasure spending these days with you and sharing some of Beijing's most iconic sights. I'm so glad you had a memorable experience. Wishing you safe travels, and I hope to see you again on your next visit to China!
Chris provided my wife and I with such a great experience. He took us to jinshanling and Gubei water town which took a full day. We ate breakfast and lunch together and he helped us try local favourites and experience Beijing cuisine. Chris is very kind and friendly, and does everything he can to provide the best possible experience.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Aiden! It was our pleasure to show you the beauty of Jinshanling Great Wall and Gubei Water Town. We're delighted that you enjoyed not only the sights but also the local food and authentic Beijing experience. Chris will be thrilled to hear your kind words. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to China for another private adventure soon! Safe travels and best wishes!
We had the most amazing experience visiting the Great Wall thanks to Leo and Chris! From the beginning, Leo made everything so easy and made sure we were well taken care of the entire time. The whole trip was perfectly organized and completely stress-free. Chris was our driver and he was absolutely incredible. His English was perfect, he was extremely knowledgeable, and he explained so much about Beijing and the Great Wall throughout the day. He helped us with tickets, the cable car, and even came up with us to take photos, which made the experience feel so personal and special. He truly went above and beyond for us. Both Leo and Chris are genuinely kind, professional, and caring people who made our trip unforgettable. We felt so comfortable and taken care of the entire day. I would 100% recommend booking with them to anyone visiting Beijing — it honestly made our Great Wall experience even more memorable!

What a fabulous experience - would highly recommend the trip and provider. Great communication throughout with some helpful recommendations...all went incredibly well. Certainly worth travelling that bit further to explore this section of The Wall. Some challenging climbs but the stunning views and experience were worth every effort. Great support, advice and communication from Leo and his team throughout...would highly recommend.

I ask a ton of questions & Gloria patiently answered all of them. We met online, but I booked through TA for security. She was a wealth of information before and during our trip and even booked tickets for a sight in another Chinese city after I couldn’t figure out how to do it. Our guide for Jinshandling (highly recommend this remote part of the wall) and Beijing was Chris White. Chris was timely, professional, but also flexible—offering to change our itinerary to add “more fun” sights and include some local street food specialties (a fried sweet pastry), after we’d inquired. He was very organized & got us to places on time. My son is learning Chinese & Chris talked to him so he could practice his Chinese. The car he drove us in was very clean and comfortable. He also took some great pictures and made a nice video of our time with him. I recommend this group 110% (& I’m not always easy to please). Thank you, Gloria and Chris.

We booked our tour very last minute, but it ended up working out perfectly! Leo was such a great guide, he knew a lot of historical info and was very nice. This tour saves you the hassle of figuring out transportation and ticketing, and is also super convenient! Totally worth it. Also the Jinshanling section was amazing, very few people and great views. 10/10, would recommend to anyone.

I had booked car service for airport pickup, drop-off and a customized day trip out to the Great Wall Jinshanling followed by Gubei Water town (Great Wall Simatai entry point). Leo arranged everything via messages prior to our arrival, offering very informative genuine advice to better help us plan our tour. I highly recommend this professional, reliable and friendly service. The vehicles were modern and clean. I would definitely use this service again next time in Beijing. Thank you Leo for all your arrangements, quick response and consistent follow up to ensure all went accordingly. Thank you Mr Wang for your excellent driving out to the Great Wall and friendly nature. Wishing you all the best!

I highly recommend this trip and say you must book with Chris and Leo! This was one of the best tours we have ever done anywhere in the world and my family and I had an incredible day. To begin with, Leo was such a wonderful communicator. He answered all of my questions, took a lot of time to give me recommendations and advice and helped tailor our tour to accommodate my 4 young kids. Then his communication was excellent all the way leading up to our tour and with perfect English. On the day we were picked up by his partner, Chris, smiling and waving to us, it was a lovely way to start the day. Chris was so kind and generous, he stopped so we could eat, he helped us buy a local Beijing breakfast, then for our drive he chatted with us and taught us all Chinese. Then we had a really wonderful tour of the Jinshanling Great Wall. This was my third trip to the wall and the best. Loved every minute. Then Chris took us to a local restaurant for a delicious lunch, helping us to order vegetarian meals. Next stop was Gubei Water Town, which was so much fun as a family. Chris was very patient all day, always smiling and carrying our bags and we chatted about our families and countries and we learnt so much from him about Beijing and life here. You must travel with Chris and Leo in Beijing! They are the best.
Thank you very much for your extremely high praise. Your high evaluation is the driving force that keeps us moving forward. We will do our best to serve every guest well. Wish you a pleasant journey! I sincerely wish you good health in the days to come! The work is going smoothly!谢谢，非常感谢！祝愿您阖家幸福！心想事成！万事如意！
