I’d like to thank Jade from Beijing Layover Tour Company. Although we had a problem with our connecting flight, we managed to visit both the Tian’anmen Square and Great Wall. Explanation was useful and we took advantage of our time.
I’d definitely recommend anyone to hire their services. Thank you for everything.

Jack was our tour guide for the Beijing layover tour on April 28th. we were stuck in the temporary visa line for over 2 hours. We made it out of the airport about 15 minutes after the scheduled tour time and Jack was still waiting for us. Jack brought us to his SUV and had bottles of water and some bananas to eat. He was very polite and courteous. He informed us how long it would take to get to the Great Wall. We arrived at the Great Wall and were free to explore. He provided us with the proper tickets and let us explore at our own pace. We later went to the forbidden city and had the same experience. Overall our lay over tour was amazing and the tour guide Jack was equally amazing. I would recommend this tour to anyone who has a layover in Beijing.
