Leo’s Private China Tours - Lilia - Wonderful!
Leo’s Private China Tours - Lilia We had the pleasure of touring Beijing with Leo’s Private China Tours in January 2026, and I cannot speak highly enough of the experience we had with their team, especially our wonderful guide, Lilia. From the very beginning, everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, professional, caring and detail-oriented. Every aspect of our tour was thoughtfully organised, and they constantly made sure that we were comfortable, well taken care of and enjoying ourselves every step of the way. What truly set this team apart, however, was the genuine care they showed toward our family. We were travelling with my aging mother, who was not able to manage all of the attractions and walking involved. Lilia was extraordinarily thoughtful and patient with her. She made the extra effort to accompany my mother, look after her and ensure that she was comfortable whenever she was unable to join us. As a daughter, knowing that my mother was in such caring and attentive hands meant a great deal to me. During the trip, my husband also became unwell, and this was when Lilia’s kindness really went far beyond what we could ever have expected from a tour guide. She went out of her way to help obtain medication for him and made sure that he was properly taken care of. Her concern felt completely genuine, and at a time when we were worried and far from home, that kindness meant more to us than I can adequately express. Lilia and her team even took the initiative to help us obtain refunds for the portions of the attractions that we were unable to visit because my husband was unwell. They certainly did not have to go to such lengths, but they did — and that level of honesty, responsibility and consideration speaks volumes about the kind of company they are. Perhaps one of the things that touched me the most happened after our holiday had already ended. Even after we had returned home to Singapore, Lilia contacted us to check on how we were doing and to ask about my husband’s well-being. By then, the tour was over and there was absolutely nothing more she was required to do. That simple gesture told me that her care for her guests extends far beyond doing her job. There are many companies that can arrange a sightseeing tour, provide transportation and take you to famous attractions. But what makes Leo’s Private China Tours special is the people behind it. When circumstances did not go according to plan, they showed compassion, flexibility and a genuine sense of responsibility toward us. We never felt like we were simply customers on an itinerary — we felt genuinely cared for. Lilia, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you did for my mother, my husband and our family. Your kindness, patience and thoughtfulness made an enormous difference to our trip, and we will always remember it. I would wholeheartedly recommend Leo’s Private China Tours, and especially Lilia, to anyone looking for a private tour company in Beijing that is professional, reliable and exceptionally well organised — but, more importantly, one that truly cares about the people travelling with them. An outstanding experience and genuinely exceptional service. If we return to China, we would not hesitate to travel with them again.

Excellent Private tour in Beijing
The private tour with guide Lilia and driver Lee was excellent. Lilia was professional, personable and very flexible to adapt to our schedule. Lee manuvered his car expertly through Beijing traffic. Together Lilia and Lee got us to sites quickly and arranged express passes to avoid queues at both the Great Wall and Tiananmen Square. Thank you to Lilia, Lee and Leo.

It seems as though they...
It seems as though they were more communicators once the confirmation was done also it didn't seem as though I was really getting all the insights I should have considering some of the places we visited

Absolutely recommend
We had Sue from LEO s private tour as our guide, and Hai Yan (海燕)as our driver. 10/10 tour and experience, everything was well spaced, they were very helpful and accommodating. Sue is very knowledgeable and full of interesting stories about the sites. Absolutely recommend.

Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall cost?
+
Prices start at $375 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beijing is not rushed.
Is Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 58 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall?
+
Around 20 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beijing can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beijing within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Beijing?
+
On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Temple Heaven, Lama Temple, Summer Palace & Peking Duck Bus Tour, Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Sightseeing Full-day Group Tours, Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Beijing?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Beijing?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall?
+
Included: Hotel pick up and drop off; Private Knowledgable tour guide; Tolls, gas, parking fee and bottled water; Round way cable car / or chairlift up and toboggan down; and Air-conditioned vehicle with a private driver. Not included: Lunch fee ( Guide recommend restaurant based on your request); and Gratuities (Recommend for excellent service ). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 181 listed pickup locations in and around Beijing. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Beijing Private 2-Day Tour with Forbidden City and Great Wall offered in?
+
It is offered in Russian, Chinese, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
