Top Beijing Private Sightseeing Tours

Truly amazing end-to-end experience. From the tour reservation to the pick-up at Hotel and from pick up to tour completion, a really outstanding experience. Tour was extremely well documented and commented. Every step was extremely well crafted and personalized in a very soft and not intrusive fashion. Andy, our tour guide, paid attention to every detail and Mr Zhang, our driver, took really good care of our trip. Best Viator experience after using the service for over 4 years. It will be difficult to beat this tour and today’s experience

Candice is probably the best tour guide I’ve ever had in China. She’s so fluent in English and explaining things so well. We enjoyed a lot during our tour at the forbidden city. Kids learned so much about the culture and history. We will certainly book a trip with her again.

Highly recommend this trip. Our driver Nicholas was amazing and very helpful throughout. Great communication and driving. Could not have been more helpful, and very friendly. We had an issue with the QR codes getting the chairlift up, but both Nicholas and Lily went the extra mile to resolve this. This section of the wall is well worth the trip. We also went to Jinshanling wall and they are quite different so worth doing both. Chairlift up and toboggan down added some fun to the amazing experience. Thank you Nicholas!! Paul

Linda, our guide, was absolutely amazing. She was kind and considerate, friendly and a wealth of knowledge about these significant Beijing landmarks. Mr Liu, our driver, was the best driver - patient despite the traffic, calm, and he made sure that we had plenty if water to stay hydrated in the hot conditions. We had the best day and are very glad that we chose this day trip. With thanks and gratitude to Linda and Mr Liu.

I recently completed a 2-day private tour of Beijing, and it was an unforgettable experience. A huge thank you to our guide, Christina, and our driver, Mr. Su, for their exceptional professionalism throughout the entire trip. ​Christina was incredibly knowledgeable, providing detailed historical context for every site we visited. She brought history to life, sharing fascinating stories about China and the various emperors as we explored the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, and the Great Wall. ​The travel logistics were seamless thanks to Mr. Su, and the dining experiences were a highlight as well. We were treated to wonderful lunches on both days, including delicious Peking duck and a variety of other authentic Chinese dishes. ​If you are looking for a well-organized, informative, and stress-free way to see the best of Beijing, I truly recommend this private tour. You will be in excellent hands!

Traveled with the family in late June. You need to be in pretty good physical condition for this tour as the terrain here is fairly steep. Cindy our guide was great in navigating us. The kids enjoyed the toboggan ride down the wall after the climb. The panda experience was sort of a miss because when we arrived only two of the pandas were available to be seen, the other ones were asleep. Since we were in a private group, we asked for the non-buffet lunch and Cindy brought us to a local restaurant to try traditional dishes to the area which I would highly recommend.

Mina Li did a great job showing us around Tianmen square, the forbidden city and the temple of heaven. She is very knowledgable about the history of each of the locations and speaks English exceptionally well. Highly recommend using her for tours in Beijing. The driver and transportation was also seamless and prompt.

Our guide was Maggie, she’s very knowledgeable & a fluent English speaker. She brought the history of the Great Wall & Summer Palace to life for us, connecting the history we learnt in the forbidden city 2 days before. You will gain so much more by having a guide, plus of course the local knowledge she shared with us all. The great wall is just that, great, an amazing feat of construction in a mountain top location, very well restored with stunning views. There’s a lot of steps but it’s so worth it & less crowded than the other common location to visit. We went up by chairlift, great views & chose the toboggan ride to come down, good fun! The summer palace is well worth a visit, the centre piece being the huge lake & the world’s longest corridor. Set in beautiful gardens, the summer residence of the Emporers. A great day with a great guide!
