          15 Hour Layover? Go to Great Wall
          During my extended layover in China, I opted to explore the city. Eager to avoid taxi hassles, I was delighted to come across Jack, who not only offered impeccable service but also shared invaluable insights on navigating Beijing and local gems. Jack and his company exceeded all expectations—I wholeheartedly endorse them. His seamless communication persisted from start to finish, even after my arrival in Beijing. The Great Wall excursion with a private driver was truly exceptional. Don't hesitate, hire Jack—you won't be disappointed!

          Absolutely excellent service!
          I had a great experience with this company for my solo trip to Mutianyu for the Great Wall. I messaged them the night before and they easily set up a day trip to accommodate my needs. My driver Sam Li came to my hotel in the morning to grab me, drove me to the Great Wall, helped me get a ticket and showed me to the shuttle bus. After exploring he met me back at the ticket office and even offered a gift from him to me. He was an excellent driver and I could not be happier with my experience! Highly recommend asking for him! Thanks again!

          Great guide!
          This is perfect if you want to see only what you want! This driver was excellent and took us to the great wall, recommended which way and which tickets to buy, so we had a great time with this. Then he took us to the Summer Palace, and to other places we asked. Great communication with driver through wechat and also with the tour owner. The driver gets extra points, because my daughter left her sunglasses in the car and he returned them the next day! I would definitely recommend this tour!

          Wonderful Private tour great Wall,heaven temple and Tienanmen square
          I can highly recommend Jack and this company.we had only 15 hours for the transfer for our next flight, but it was enough to visit the great wall, the heaven temple and the Tiananmen Square. They are very professional. Wonderful car. Punctual. Driver very safe and helpful. He has basic English but enough to explaine us the needed things. He did also for us all the tickets for the great Wall. Free Water and fruit, we enjoyed Beijing and the Chinese culture. Thank you very much! I would like to chose again this company! Regards, Salvatore

          Excellent and patient service
          I highly recommend this service!! Upon booking, manager and coordinator Jack Wang, was very responsive and worked through all the details prior to the trip. We communicated through WeChat in English and he let me know who was assigned as the driver along with the car type and license plate number the night before. The day of the transfer, Mr. Sam Li arrived 5 minutes before scheduled. He made the visit to Mutianyu Great Wall extremely smooth and easy as I was traveling with my elderly parents, who are not as mobile and are slower moving. Mr Li was an excellent and safe driver and was very patient, helping my parents in and out of the car, up and down stairs. He showed us where to get the Cable car tickets and escorted us to the shuttle bus that’s took us to the cable car entrance. He even had bananas and water for us to take along! After coming down the Wall, he took us to the Chinese restaurant inside the Wall’s Park and recommended the dishes to get that are more well known. (Get the dumplings!) Then after lunch, he took us to a roadside market to buy local fruits and chestnuts - which my parents very much enjoyed. Throughout the day, I was able to communicate with him through WeChat (there is an English translation option in the app so he can write in Chinese and I was able to easily translate) so as always able to find each other. Although his English is basic, you can see Mr Li really wants to help you have an enjoyable time. My parents do speak Mandarin, so they were able to converse and communications was not a problem for us. I had planned a second attraction as part of the transfer, but given my parents’ pace, we ran out of time for another location since the service is for 8 hours. But I didn’t mind at all because we all had a lovely time! Thank you Mr Wang and Mr Li!

          Great Wall visiting
          We booked the tour yesterday as we were not very sure about our program till the very last moment. I would like to express our gratitude to the tour company. Very well organized and efficient service. We booked the time that suited us, the driver was waiting for us at the hotel and was very polite, with a new and clean car. He offered us fruits, water and internet. The service added a lot to our overall impression of the Great Wall. I strongly recommend using this company.

          Punctual, reliable, clean, comfortable and safe
          Based on reviews on TripAdvisor, we chose Beijing Laowang for our private transportation needs during our recent holiday in Beijing. We expected a small outfit with good track record and more personalized service. We were definitely not disappointed. From the start, Jack Wang was very prompt and efficient in replying to our email enquiries and made helpful suggestions regarding the transportation needs for our itinerary. Before travel date Jack also finalized the travel schedule, cost, and name and contact of the driver. In Beijing we were equally impressed by our driver David Li who took care of our airport transfers, trip to Jinshanling and Mutianyu sections of the Great Wall, and visits to 798 Art Zone, Olympic Green and the Summer Palace. David drove a new VW Passat which was very comfortable for a party of 3, kept the car clean, ensured each passenger got 2 bottles of water for every pick up, was always punctual and reliable, and drove very skillfully and safely. David has a pleasant personality and speaks basic English which was sufficient to ensure everybody’s on the same page. He helped us to get admission/cable car tickets at the Great Wall and the Summer Palace, and gave us clear instructions where to drop off and meet back with him at each attraction. He also gave good advice on where to shop, where to eat and places to avoid. (Tip: 1. Beijing LaoWang is a private transport service and not a guide service, so we need to do our own research on the attractions we intend to visit including ticket prices, cable car operation hours, how much time to spend at and how best to view each attraction etc; Tip2: Communication moves up a few notches if you know basic Mandarin or at least go online and find out the pinyin names of the attractions; Tip 3: Download WeChat before leaving your home country as this was how David and I easily communicated with each other when we were physically separated). We wish to thank Jack and David for making our holiday in Beijing a smooth and pleasant one.

          PERFECT! Recommend 100%. Family of 5
          We contacted Jack while in Beijing...we are last minute planners. Jack responded quickly, his English is great, it was easy to arrange our trip and he was able to give us advice. We were keen to go to Mutianyu section of The Great Wall. 3 big boys in our group. The price was better than the others and the fact he could carry up to 6 passengers made the biggest difference. We did not wish for a tour guide, as we do our own thing, and Jacks service fitted the bill perfectly. We pre-arranged 930am collection..getting 3 teenagers out of bed is a challenge. Jack was at our apartment in good time, he had prepared a bag of snacks (bananas and wrapped sweet items) for us, plus bottled water. On the way there he chatted with us about the building we passed, also played a short video re the history of the Wall. The drive was fascinating, having only used the Metro it was wonderful to travel through the city and countryside . His driving was great, We felt very safe. He helped us purchase tickets, we didn't think we would need assistance...but in the end it was much easier with him there. We planned a rendezvous time, and he was waiting for us. I definitely recommend Jacks services. We used email and Wechat . We contacted 2other drivers but Jack was the quickest to respond and his prices was great. We were lucky.

          Perfect half day tour for an item on our bucket list
          My husband and I were traveling to Beijing on a leisure trip and decided to book a half day tour with this company cause it seemed uncomplicated; and was true to that impression. We are not tour bus people, but with no car in Beijing, this seemed like a safe compromise. Jack was our driver/guide, and we had a wonderful experience. He gave us a brief background of what we were about to see on the Mutianyu section of the wall, which turned out to be much less crowded than the more popular sections. Jack helped us purchase tickets and then waited patiently while we hiked as much as we could in the hot sun. We had an outstanding experience, thanks to Jack. He arrived promptly at the hotel on time, and had us back by early afternoon so we could still explore more of this amazing city. I’d highly recommend this tour, and Jack, if you’re looking for transportation to/from the wall, and are conscious of spending your time wisely while in Beijing.

          Excellent Personal Driver For The Day
          I emailed Jack directly as we wanted to plan our own day and not get ripped off with over priced tours His response was very quick and very reasonably priced Jack was very prompt in the morning and had a lovely clean car with plenty of space for our family of 5, he even provided water & snacks. We had a lovely drive to The Great Wall at the Mutianyu section where Jack then helped organise our tickets. We took the chair lift up then the toboggan down , it was breathtakingly amazing WOW We then stopped for some photos of The Birds Nest then visited The Summer Palace Jack had good English, and was a safe driver and gave us some good information Would definitely recommend Jack and use him again

          Relaxing
          We were in Beijing during the Nov 2017 ASEAN summit, so a lot of road closures. However our guide showed up at our hotel lobby right on time despite some traffic , so we were on schedule to start our adventure. With only 1 full day in Beijing, we were not interested in tours that included factory visits, so having a design-your-own tour via Beijing Laowang is perfect! Our guide Jack is friendly, knowledgeable, with a relaxed vibe throughout the drive. His car is clean & he brought some snacks for the tour. Highly recommended.

          Jack was so wonderful, he was so good about making sure that we were able to see everything we wanted to, he was flexible when we changed our minds and wanted to do something different instead. His english was great, he was a careful and safe driver. We would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone planning a trip to China.

        I have included some photo in this review but I have to say the Great Wall is breath taking , and my photos just don’t do justice . I personally find the heaven of temple very intriguing as well. This trip is a must in Beijing .

        In Beijing is fairly difficult to find taxi in tourist area. I was so happy that we pre-booked this trip. Jack was our driver , he was polite , honest , punctual and he speaks decent honest English. We booked this trip online before we get to china , and we were able to squeeze so many destination in 1 day. Jack never rush us , and he wanted to give us more time than we actually needed. He also recommended restaurant for us , but mostly importantly the fee is very reasonable.

        We plan on going back to Beijing 2019, we will definitely use his service again.

        hi, TravelTrio101, First of all, thank you for your visit Beijing and for ordering our services. After receiving your complaint, I spent a lot of time asking the driver about the service process and details, combined with the telephone communication between us that day, My conclusions are as follows: 1. you baught 4 seats, we assign the 5 seats car, it is right. if you hope to be more comfortable, you should buy 7 seats car ticket. 2. the route to mutianyu great wall from airport the driver drove in that day is right, all our drivers go on this way and route. and we ask our driver never to drive for over speed for the guests' safety. 3. most our drivers speak basic english with translating APP to communite with our guests, could solve almost all the problems, we have introduced this information in our product on tripadvisor.com. thank for giving me more opportunity to explain "English" issue: as the second language, considering the age of our driver who all have a high school education , the difference between Chinese and English is so huge, It is reasonable for us to use mobile translation software to communicate with customers. Just imagine, if we visit your country, the taxi drivers in your country must not speak Chinese as well as we speak English:)) anyway, our driver still study and practice english very hard everyday, and hope our guests could understand and support, such as speaking slowly, teaching and correcting our english ...... 4. for "Nothing included" you said, we publish the Inclusions & Exclusions on tripadvisor.com, here repeat again: Inclusions: Bottled water Hotel pickup and drop-off Private tour round-trip toll, gas and parking fees WiFi in Car (no video and game) Exclusions: Entrance fees and tickets Meals Tour guide Gratuities Entry/Admission - Mutianyu Great Wall We talked on the phone that day, you asked if including tickets or lunch, I said No. and then you became unhappy. I guess you didn't study our product carefully before booking,I think it is not our fault, you shouldn't blame us, and shouldn't said the "Fxxx" word in car (the driver reported to me) I think the driver did what he could according to our rules, he was on time to pick you up at airport and back, he showed you to left your luggages, he drove safely, he is licensed cab driver, his car is VW Passat which is almost new one, he showed you to buy the tickets and the way to ride the shuttle bus, even bought four bananas, 8 bottle water, He was very polite during the service, no shop stop, no hidden fee...... therefore, I don't think your complaint makes any sense. I'd like to take this opportunity to tell our future guests: Our drivers are strictly forbidden to cheat or harm our guests, once found out immediately dismissed, he will not have a second chance. Also inviting our guest to supervise.

        Look no further - If you’re planning on visiting the Great Wall of China DEFINITELY do this! Our driver, David, was SO friendly and accommodating. Communication was so easy before and during the trip. He picked us up from the hotel and since I just landed the night before I expressed I needed to find an ATM to take out local currency for the duration of my stay. He drove me to the closest bank, waited for me and even treated us to some yummy bananas! He gave us some great tips and insight on the Great Wall and helped us purchase the tickets we wanted!

        All in all, this is the only way to do the Great Wall. Hassle free, kind, deluxe service. I would recommend David to everyone!

        We did the full day Great Wall tour with Tony as our driver, and it was such a wonderful way to experience the Great Wall!

        First, Tony picked us up at our hotel right on time (actually, about ten minutes early) and took us to his car, which was air conditioned and had plenty of bottled water for us to drink! Tony even provided us with bananas to eat as a morning snack on our way there. When we arrived at the Great Wall, Tony helped us purchase our tickets and recommended the toboggan sled down, which ended up being one of our favorite parts of the day! We then agreed on a time to meet after we explored the Great Wall. It was actually nice to only have a driver rather than a guide for the Great Wall, because the Great Wall is really a spot to been seen and enjoyed at your own pace!

        When we were finished exploring the Great Wall on our own, we met back up with Tony (who was even there waiting on us thirty minutes before our meeting time) and he brought us straight back to our hotel. He was a wonderful driver - I'd definitely request him if you can!

        One thing to note about this tour - It only includes a driver to and from the Great Wall. The driver is not a guide, so he will not spend the entire drive out to the Great Wall pointing out different sites and giving you the history of the Great Wall.

        I only had half a day to visit the wall and needed a service which was flexible and suitable for solo travelers. I chose LaoWang because of their focus on safety and low fees. Other companies charged more for less passengers or for late bookings, but I was able to confirm my booking 8pm the night before and have all my questions answered very promptly. The driver (Lee Mingshan) kindly arrived before 6:30 to pick me up directly outside of my hostel. He gave me fruit, snacks, and water and drove safely through scenic areas on the way to Mutianyu. When we arrived he helped me buy tickets and pointed me in the direction to the shuttle bus. He also showed me where he would wait for me when I returned. I had arrived to the wall shortly after 8am and was able to hike to the Great Corner Tower with barely no other visitors. By mid-day I made it to the North towers and took the toboggan down. Lee was easy to find and drove me quickly to the airport for my flight. At the airport he parked and guided me to the entrance. Overall, I would highly suggest this service for their flexibility, low fees, safety, English speaking drivers, and assistance. The whole trip was very safe, efficient and relaxing, with the help of Lee Mingshan's driving and assistance.

        Friends and I booked this for early January. We went with this tour as the reviews seemed to be glowing and felt it would be less hassle than arranging something when we arrived in Beijing as our hotel did not have concierge facilities.

        The driver that collected us barely spoke english. We were lucky enough to have a fluent chinese speaker and I am fairly conversational in it. However 2 others didn't speak it at all. Don't get me wrong, the driver we had was a lovely guy - gave us water and some fruit and was patient waiting for us and happily chatted with my fluent friend. But for the price we paid in GBP converted to the local currency, this can be considered really overpriced for what we got. It could have be even more disastrous if none of us had spoken any chinese at all.

        The tour name is potentially misleading given that our driver clearly did not speak english. I could only say that the good reviews appear to be true if you get Jack so if you do choose to opt for this tour, I would make sure you ask for Jack to get your money's worth.

        Overall our experience was ok, but disappointed and felt a bit conned.
        Given 2 stars instead of 1 on the basis that our driver was pleasant enough.

        Dear Kho Fung V, It is so pity that our driver didn't let you satisfied. I think that he became lazy to speak in english when your friend spoke in chinese, he ignored others. sure, he can speak basic english but is not the best one in our drivers, in fact, he also takes the foreign tourists to great wall almost every day. at the same time, it is my fault, when I saw your names, I guess you might speak some chinese, therefore I dispatched the driver. anyway, I understand your feeling, I also often travel abroad, Language do be the big problem. In fact, when our guests praised our english, I know we still need to improve, although we are not the professional tour guide, just the driver, I still often encourage our drivers introduce Beijing in english, even just the Englsih words or using the translating APP, saying would be better than silence. your 2 stars review is a urge to us, thank you and if you or your friends come again, please give us a chance to prove ourselves.

        Hello! We wrote to Mr. Wang just a day before our departure to China and he was able to organize for us a short private trip to Mutianyu- Great Wall. Mr. Wang gave us clear instruction how to meet a driver, how much the tour is, how to prepare and what can we expect from the trip. We knew that the trip we have choosed was with the non-english speaking driver but here(on trip advisor) I couldn't find this option. Anyway the driver was able to communicate with us. We had only 13 hours between our flights, and it was great idea to go to the Great Wall in this time. Whole trip takes around 5 hours - about 1 hour to go from Bejing Airport to Mutianyu - where you spand around 3 hours(especially when it is cold outside ;d). What's more: for the first time on the airport we didn't get the visa(our falt, we went to transit part of airport instead to board crossing passage...) but mr . Wang was not angry and we just apologized and made another trip appointmen after 2 weeks when we were on the way back home from holidays.

        If you want to see The Great Wall on your layover, I cannot imagine a better way to do it. The driver met me at the airport with my name on a sign. He was extremely nice and helpful. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I’m so glad I did this tour.

        Our flight was delayed getting in and David Li was patiently waiting, ready to whisk us away to the Great Wall. He had water and bananas, taking good care of us as he orchestrated a very quick transport, ATM visit, and ticket purchase for the wall and cable car. We made it back in time for our departure flight and could not be happier with the tour. Now we plan to come back to see more.
