A great day out. Flexible in what we wanted to do. I recomend this location to visit too as not many crowds and the tour agency too

Driver was punctual and speak a basic English. Comfortable car. He helped us in tacking tickets for the entrance of the Great Wall since again, anybody speak neither a word of English.

Because I was going solo, I honesty was a little nervous to meet up with the driver and go a long distance by myself, but it was all gone after I met up the driver, Mr.Ping! His wife came along, which made it more reassuring. Also, his English was fluent and was very very helpful! Even though the tour I chose doesn’t include a guide, he walked me to the ticket office, helped get the tickets, explained the Water Town map to me, and even helped me set up the Wechat haha. After I had my fun and adventure at water town and the Simatai wall (which was amazing), he was thoughtful enough to ask me if I had other plans after this, and was very kind enough to drop me off at my next destination!! I’m so glad I took the chance to come to Gubei water town!! Zero regrets! Thank you so much, Mr. Ping!! 🥹

I would like to leave our tour guide Linda from Leo’s Guide and Driver Service, a rave review. She is very knowledgeable and has planned her tours well. Linda is able to answer any historical question with as much depth as you want, and is passionate about history. Her English is impeccable. We visited the Forbidden City on a very hot day, and she was sure to find us some shade, to remind us to drink water, and even offered me her umbrella. She’s very kind. But what impressed my husband and I though most was her knowledge of the Palace Museum and life under the emperors. I know she knew much, much more than she had time to share with us, and we wished we had that time with her. Highly recommend Linda for her guidance.

Today, we went to our 3rd time to the forbidden city. I always love this place but never found the right guide to share real insights. But I wanted to give another try! Leo found tickets to the forbidden city and a guide within 24 hours (expecting timeline for tickets is 7days currently) which was awesome given that we book the tour only 2 days before landing in Beijing. Our guide, Wanghui, told us about histories and tales about the forbidden city: even my husband was very interested! She quickly caught up on our points of interest and customized the itinerary accordingly: she went out of usually routes and showed us places that we’ve never seen before. Finally, she gave us a lot recommendations on restaurants. We enjoyed the tour very much: organization, insights and customization were top notch!

Leo’s private tour with the driver Ken provided us with a great experience. He accommodated our needs and plans and made our time at the Great Wall and summer palace very enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Seamlessly easy day trip to the Great Wall on Leo’s private tour. My driver Mr Ping was super interesting and spoke perfect English - he also knows good restaurants in the area!

Had a fantastic day at Tianamen Square and Forbidden City with my wonderful guide Jenny! Both are must see places when coming to Beijing. Having an English speaking guide to help navigate the difficult logistics and security requirements involved was very comforting. Additionally, Jenny has a wealth of historical knowledge of both places that was fascinating. A gorgeous weather day, two breathtaking attractions, and a wonderful tour guide made it a perfect day!

Leo went far and beyond what was called of him for me on my trip to Beijing. He not only arranged a English speaking driver to take me to the wall but also informed me and answered a multitude of questions I had about Beijing! Even when my questions had nothing to do with what I had paid for! I would highly recommend booking through him because of this alone! He truly made my trip so much easier! Thank you Leo

We were so glad we did this tour vs. just walking Forbidden CIty ourselves. Connie our guide was super knowledgeable, contextualized and explained the history of the place and led us to places / photo ops inside Forbidden City which we would have never discovered otherwise. She picked us up at our hotel and we took the bus there, everything went smooth until we were inside and and we didn't feel rushed. Plenty of time to explore and Jingshan Park afterwards was great as well. Well organized with a great guide and we learned so much about Chinese history. Highly recommended!

We were delighted to have the very lovely Helen (from Leo’s Tours) guide us for 4 days, including the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. She speaks very good English and was very informative and knowledgeable with great insights and stories. We would happily use her again and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Beijing.

This tour is amazing. Leos agency is super trustfull and kind. He arranged everything, so I didn't have to worry about anything. Totally recommend his tours.

I chanced upon the good review for Leo's Guide & Drive in Trip advisor. As I'm actually planning the trip to Beijing with my family of 7 people including one elderly in Apr 2020. Therefore, i decided to email them for a quote for their service. During the period from asking a quote to finalise booking with them, i have alot of questions that make me send a numbers of email which make me feel so bad. To my suprise, every email response from them are super fast and they provide very details information relating to my trip. I was so happy and I booked their service. However, due to the COVID-19 virus, I have not choice but to cancel my trip. So I emailed them to explain the situation and I would like to cancel the booking. They immediately replied me that they do understand and offer to refund me my deposit. Frankly speaking, I did not exepect that they will refund the deposit as is not their fault causes the trip to be cancelled. If I'm going to Beijing next year, I definitely will book the service with them again.

We had an amazing day at the forbidden city! Helen was our tour guide from (Leo's tour). She arrived on time, told us the agenda for the day and spoke great English! She talked about the Forbidden city on theway there. She was very knowledgeable and answered questions. She was on time and did not rush us while we gazed at the forbbiden city. She have recommendations for lunch and for dinner. After the tour she gookul us to Pearl market. She department and a pleasant to be around. After the tour she took us to Pearl market. I highly recommend her and company.

We only had one day in Beijing and decided to tour the Forbidden City. We booked the tour with Leo's private tour, and was led by tour guide Susan. She was very punctual arriving at our hotel, and along the way she gave us a great deal of information about Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. We would never be able to notice the details and understanding the meaning behind them on our own. We finished the tour just after lunch, and Susan gave us a lot of good ideas to fill the rest of the afternoon. Overall, it was a great tour, and the Forbidden City didn't disappoint. We would definitely recommend using a tour guide, and Leo's is a great choice!
