Nope! Most guests just bring their phones and are able to take great photos. If you have a favorite camera or device, you are more than welcome to bring those as well. A tripod is not necessary as the lighting is strong and your guide will be able to help you take photographs.

This is a walking tour; let’s just get that out of the way. This tour covers about 3 km/ 1.8 miles by foot, so we recommend leaving the heels at home. This distance is split up between 4 destinations, but you will be on your feet for the duration of the tour. Dress comfortably for the weather and get ready to explore Beijing!

Since capacity is limited, adults and children pay the same price for this tour. Children 3 and under are free.

The tour starts at 1:30pm at the Hailun Road Subway Station. You’ll get the exact address, directions, and transportation details immediately after booking.

The tour ends on Liyang Road, near the International Cruise Terminal Subway Station. Your guide will point you in the right direction for wherever you need to go next, or you are welcome to stay at the park as long as you like!

Our minimum is 2 and maximum is 10. There’s no flag to follow, or megaphone, or tacky uniforms. This is a small, intimate group where you’ll get plenty of face time in front of the camera and with your local guide.

This tour lasts about 3.5 hours, but this can depend on the size of the group.

All of our tours are rain-or-shine, so we suggest you dress for the weather. In rare cases of extreme weather, your guide will cancel the tour and provide a full refund.

Yes we do! If you would like to book a special tour for your organization, group or a special occasion, just contact us and we’ll take care of you.

We have many happy customers who do more than one of our tours in Beijing and across China! We have designed our tours to focus only on destinations and food from each city. This means that each tour, story, and vibe is unique to each tour and there aren’t any repeats.

We encourage you to pick the tours that best fit your itinerary and we offer a 10% discount if booking more than one tour.

We sure do! If you decide to do more than one tour with us we are happy to offer you a 10% discount off your total amount. It doesn’t matter if the tour is in the same city or a different city, we want to keep feeding you as long as you let us. Our online booking system will automatically deduct the discount from your total if booking online at the same time.
