If you are the first time visitor for Beijing as well as other part of China, I would not encourage you to choose rental car as the way touring the city!
The driving culture in China is quite new, there is tremendous increase of the car on road since these 3-4 years, at least 60% of the drivers are new drivers , I can't give too much compliments to our driving skills! Sincerely speaking , I would saying I don't enjoy driving in the city anymore , and I would dare to say that it is one of the difficult places in the world to drive.
The rental fee for a car is quite cheap, less than RMB300 for a day in general. I would suggest you to hire a taxi if you are a "luxury" traveller. You can get a taxi 8 hours reserved for you for leass than RMB600. It's more safe and you don't need to worry about parking! Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Don't try it unless you are used to disordered traffic situation. The best solution is to take taxi or hire local driver. Theme: Car/Motor Home

Hiring a car in Beijing (or anywhere in China) is not that easy. If you can get a Chinese-issued driving license, then you can hire one and drive by yourself. If you can’t get that license, then you can rent a car but it will include a driver.
The good news is that some recent legislation enables now you, the foreigner (the lao3 wai4), to get a temporary license valid for 3 months. Just take advantage of this benefit, my friend.
For more information about this and about hiring a car, you can visit the follow website.

I have stayed in Jiu Hua Spa&Resort near Beijing (with my family) for 6 days. I used the services of Robinson Li tours for travelling at major Beijing sites. As related to other chinese people (who should knew english as lomg they work in tourism) the english spoken by his team is excellent. Thery can solve also all kind of accommodation problems helping you as translator. The program is flexible, so we have made a very good choice. The price of 88-1000RMB per day is the best one as related to his flexible program and additional services. It is true, I could find a taxi driver with less money, ...but I wonder whether they help you all problems which could appear at check-in and check-out at hotel.

On the second day, we booked a taxi for the whole day at 360RMB to the Ming Tombs' Sacred Way, Badaling Great Wall, Summer Palace and Qianmen.
The cab driver must be pretty new and was polite and friendly. It would seems that it was his first whole day booking. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

We rented a car to bring us around Beijing. It's much more convenient and better than booking yourself in the local tours where they bring you to the tourist sites and tourist shops to get ripped off.
This driver (Robinson Li) which we used was really quite good. He speaks reasonable english and gave us pretty good account of the historical sites (Tiananmen Sq, Forbidden City, Summer Palace etc).
Though it's not the cheapest around (he charges us about 800rmb for 4 people for a full day tour), it's still quite reasonable compared to the other tours. Theme: Car/Motor HomePhone: 1380-136-1383Website: www.beijingtaxi.com Other Contact: robinsonlitour@hotmail.com

According to LP guidebook it seemed a very complicated thing getting by public transport to Mutianyu Great Wall. Neverthless we decided to give it a chance. We got by taxi to Dong Zhi Men coach station in order to find out how. There a local guy called Mr Liang, holding a sign promoting his shuttle service to Great wall stopped us. I was about to ignore him but luckily my travelmate started negotiating the price. I can't recall the price (not too expensive) but thank god we did it. Not only we travelled there in our own pace but also by the time Mutianyu Wall opened to visitors. So we were able to wander around in almost complete serenity.
You will find him towards the Dong Zhi Men coach station in Beijing. His destinations are to any part of great wall and his moni van can host up to 20 persons Theme: Car/Motor HomePhone: 13311512344 (mobile)Other Contact: tel: 64684286 (after 18:00)
