We took this private evening tour and it was simply fantastic. We had the opportunity to see different views of the city, from the lively alleys of the old town filled with street food to the modern skyscrapers of the business district and the iconic Olympic sites. We had dinner at an excellent restaurant very popular among residents, sampling local specialties. Our guide was the very friendly and knowledgeable BBJ- John, who told us many interesting things about the city and its neighborhoods. This tour is definitely worth doing!

Miko, our guide, was hilarious, full of energy and very knowledgeable. We loved the dinner and enjoyed him teaching us how to eat Beijing Duck correctly… it was delicious!!!! The highlight was seeing the Birds Nest and Cube lit up at night. Milo knew all the best places to take photos and continually took our photo so we will have memories forever of all the great stops on this tour! Make sure you ask for Miko!

This is a superb tour to see highlights of Beijing at night, with the charm of the lights. Our guide, Jay, was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and he made the tour a 10/10 for us!! Chow, our driver, was an excellent driver and made the evening so comfortable and easy for us at every step of the way. I can’t say enough to recommend Jay as a guide, and the tour itself was a must do!!

This tour was absolutely fantastic, and our guide Jack made it truly unforgettable. He went above and beyond, not only providing an exceptional tour experience but also assisting us with securing acrobatic show tickets and helping us arrange transportation. Jack's knowledge of the city was impressive, and he took the time to learn more about us, making the experience feel personal and tailored. He picked out some delicious dishes to have for dinner, which was a wonderful touch. Thank you, Jack, for making our night tour so special. Your attention to detail and care for us in Beijing made all the difference. The illuminated sights of the city were breathtaking and offered a whole new perspective of Beijing. We’ll cherish this experience!

Beijing truly comes alive at night, offering a whole new perspective on the city. This tour took me through all the key landmarks, each more stunning under the evening lights. Albert, my guide, was not only incredibly friendly but also knowledgeable and engaging, making the experience both fun and insightful. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience the beauty of Beijing after dark!

We had a great time with Jay. He took us to a great restaurant and then made sure we saw Beijing after dark. The buildings in the CBD were amazing lit up at night. We highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed. Jay is very friendly and knowable.
