Top Beijing Night Cruises

Eat your way around Beijing’s old "hutong" alleyways and courtyards on a small-group tour. Enjoy several food stops at tucked-away restaurants and homes you wouldn’t find by yourself. Sample staples such as Beijing hotpot, noodles, beef buns, and spring pancakes. Learn about local cuisine over unlimited beers and soda, and enjoy a stop at a local brewery, with a pint of craft beer included. Make sure to bring your appetite.

It can be difficult to beat the crowds in Beijing. This Forbidden City admission ticket is the perfect way to ensure you have an stress-free visit with no waiting around. Gain access using your passport near the main entrance, close to Tiananmen Square, then explore the palace complex and admire the courtyards and gardens. Choose between morning or afternoon admission; upgrade to add a guide or visit the Treasure Gallery.

Discover one of China’s most in-demand attractions—and explore a UNESCO World Heritage Site—when you book advance tickets to the Summer Palace. Don’t worry about wasting time in line: by reserving your tickets before you travel, you can bypass the crowds, head inside, and explore independently. Book regular admission to see the main entrance or choose combination entry to discover four of the site’s garden areas.

Watch Beijing light up for the night on a private sightseeing tour. Travel with a private guide in a comfortable vehicle to see Tiananmen Square, and admire the dramatic architecture of the National Centre for the Performing Arts, CCTV headquarters and Beijing National Stadium. Discover local bars around Houhai Lake, and check out the colorfully lit Central Business District shopping centers. Includes option to include dinner or an acrobatics show.

The Great Wall of China is a must-see destination, but getting there and back on your own can be difficult. Simplify your day and explore the Great Wall independently with private transportation and hotel pickup from Beijing. Enjoy ample time to walk the Mutianyu section, with admission and shuttle bus ride included. After exploring, your English-speaking driver will transport you back to your hotel.

Enjoy an easy way to explore one of Beijing’s most popular attractions when you pre-book tickets to the UNESCO-listed Temple of Heaven. One of the world’s largest ceremonial complexes, and dating to the 15th century, the temple is renowned for its striking architecture, vibrant interiors, and imperial past. Secure your entry before your trip, and upon arrival, bypass the crowds and head right inside.

Enjoy three experiences in one night with this guided tour that blends food and romance.
