Linda was an exceptional guide! From the moment we met, she made us feel genuinely welcome. She constantly checked in on us—asking if we had eaten breakfast or lunch, making sure we always had water and snacks, and even asking if we’d like to experience a traditional Chinese teahouse.
When I mentioned I wanted to try authentic Chinese mooncakes, she went out of her way to help us find them at a local store. She also took us to hidden spots that only locals know about, which made the experience feel even more special.
Linda shared fascinating stories about the Great Wall, Chinese history, and religion that brought everything to life. She made sure we had the best possible experience and even helped us purchase tickets for the toboggan ride down the Wall, which was so much fun!
Above all, Linda was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and hospitable. Her kindness and attention to detail made our day unforgettable. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Beijing!

We had Jessica as our guide, and she was wonderful! She provided educational information in the car regarding the history of China and even a brief Chinese language lesson! Of course the Great Wall was amazing. She showed us the best spot for photos and provided more educational information. She took us to a tea ceremony on the way back. Jessica is a warm, friendly person. 10/10

Awesome all the way around d. Good communication. Great driver. Pickup was early. He told us lots of info and when we finished early he asked if we wanted to see more.
Jenny_E, Jul 2026
Probably the most stress free time we had in China. Most other places were super crowded but Linda helped us navigate the tickets and even took us to a tea house and restaurant for lunch. Mutianyu was gorgeous and Linda provided a lot of history and context to the Great Wall, and we avoided a lot of crowds.
Alex_K, Jul 2026
Linda gave us exceptional service. Her communication about tour preparation was very clear, and the entire tour including transport was smooth and efficient. She is friendly and warm too. I would highly recommend Linda any time.

Davis is the best guide/driver in Beijing! Highly recommend this trip! Incredible trip for the Great Wall of China!
Tham_H, Jun 2026
My husband and I were traveling to Beijing for 48 to visit the Great Wall of China. We didn't want to wake up super early so we looked for a private driver/tour and found this gem. From the communication with Linda who organized everything smoothly for us to our very knowledgeable and chill driver Leo. I couldn’t recommend them more. We were so happy with everything.
Kathryn_B, Jun 2026
Linda was an awesome guide! She was super knowledgeable about Beijing and the Great Wall. She made sure the whole tour experience was super smooth and we got lots of family photos - something we never get on our own. We have 3 young kids and she really took care so that the tour was fun for them too. She was also a huge help via Whatsapp when I had so many questions about Beijing.

Good guidance from Linda on a visit to the Mutianyu Great Wall. We started early before the crowd and harsh sun.
Matthew_G, May 2026
Great day with Linda. We visited a jade factory, tea house, had lunch, and of course spent several hours walking on the Great Wall. She was very helpful and patient. Nice tour!

I Asked GOD for his best English-speaking Tour provider; and It Was Linda Tours, which assisted me in making My First Trip To Beijing, China A Great Success By Allowing Me Real Flexibility To Maximize My Transit Time Schedule. Linda Shared Great Knowledge About Each Of The Places Visited. I Highly Recommend Linda Tours. Linda Tours Was Very Punctual With The Pickup Time. Professionalism and Good Courtesy Were Displayed and Experienced Throughout The Whole Tour. The Big Plus/Bonus For Me Was The Airport Pickup and Drop-Off Which Was Provided By Linda Tours. Linda Tours used a new full size comfortable vehicle.

We has a wonderful day with Linds. She was personable, knowledgable and spoke excellent english. She took us to the front of the very long lines. Also, her vehicle was clean and well maintained. Lastly, her driving skills made us feel comfortable and safe.
Dakshika_D, Apr 2026
Our trip was absolutely fantastic, largely thanks to my guide Gale. She was incredibly professional and clearly knew her stuff inside and out. We learned so much during our time together. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly enriching experience. It was a journey we soon won't forget.

Amazing tour of Tianenmen and Forbidden City! Catherine’s English and knowledge were incredible. She was warm and fun and also professional !!
Genie_A, Apr 2026
It was a very easy and well arranged trip to the Great Wall. Our guide and driver Fred was extremely helpful, arriving on time and going extra way to make our trip nice, comfortable and interesting. The manager was also very helpful in recommending earlier starting time - we've beat the crowd and had an overall very pleasant experience
Stephanie_H, Apr 2026
A perfect and easy way to see the Great Wall. We went early (left hotel at 6:30am) as suggested by the company and had the wall to ourselves when we arrived. It was a beautiful morning exploring the quiet wall. When we were leaving, the lines were long to enter. Our driver Mr. Wu was the best. He came and helped us buy the chairlift and tobaggan tickets. He even helped take some photos for us (we did not book a tour guide, only booked a driver). He went above and beyond to help us, was very friendly, and made the morning very easy for us. I’ll suggest this to my all my friends!

Thanks to our tour guide Linda, we had an incredible experience visiting the Great Wall. Linda is very professional, friendly and organized. She picked us up with her nice car and we enjoyed a lovely chat with her during the long car ride. She helped us getting tickets to get on the gondola without us fighting the long lines. Her private tour is very well planned on the Great Wall, we did not feel being rushed. She provided historical information while also giving us space to enjoy alone time as a family on the Wall but come in to take pictures for us at the most amazing photo spots. We enjoyed every moment of our tour. We loved the whole plan of picking us up and dropping us off, which was extremely efficient. We would not have had this trip so smoothly without her.
In addition to that, Linda offered us help to our last minute decision to tour the temple of heaven before we leave to the airport. Her colleague, Angie came to help us the second day. Angie showed up with her driver. They not only provided a fantastic and knowledgeable private tour to our family, they also dropped us off at the Beijing airport. Angie also brought our kids little souvenirs and fresh strawberries. The driver Mr. Kong is extremely professional with fantastic driving and customer skills.
I would highly recommend Linda, Angie and Mr. Kong to anyone who is planning to visit. Their services is flawless and they truly made the experience memorable and enjoyable.

We enjoyed the tour to Mutianyu with our guide Angie so much! She not only provided information during our walk on the Great Wall but we also got precise information to our questions and sights in Beijing. Angie also provided fresh fruits as a snack and took care of everything. Both, the driver and Angie were very professional. We highly recommend the tour. We would have given 10 stars if possible.
Kurtis_M, Mar 2026
I highly recommend this tour, Linda was great. She showed up exactly on time at our hotel and was a good driver in a very nice car. Hte's very knowledgeable about the history of the Great Wall + helped us take a lot of photos. She also helped us with other activities in Beijing.
Michael_B, Mar 2026
Linda was an excellent guide. We had lots of history and China questions and she was really good providing history and also cultural insights beyond just the Great Wall. I would highly recommend this tour. Let her know what you want to do and your speed and she will give you the best options. We wanted to walk a lot and also see a few other things in the area and she brought us to tea room, lunch and jade workshop. She gave us dinner recommendations and helped with reservations. Very good communication via WhatsApp from the minute we booked until she picked us up. I would do the less busy Mutiyanu section and take the chairlift up so you spend your time and energy walking the wall.
Aravind_K, Mar 2026
Angie was a great guide and the tour was well organized. We opted to start very early which was great as we beat traffic and were among the first on the wall.
Alasdair_W, Mar 2026
Linda was very proactive with the information and made sure everything went smoothly. My driver and guide Fred was excellent and made sure everything went to plan. To be at The Great Wall on my own so early was the highlight of the trip.
Thank you Linda & Fred.
Greg_C, Mar 2026
Great experience. Picked up by Sandy and Mr Ten from hotel in lovely clean car. Smooth safe ride all the way there and back.

Would highly recommend this to anyone.

Great experience with Linda. Picked us up on time and pre-booked our tickets making sure the trip was convenient. We were lucky with weather and waiting time, which made the experience more enjoyable.
