Highlights
What sets this experience apart is that it’s not just a tour — it’s a ride into a side of Beijing most visitors never get to see. You’ll explore the city the most authentic way possible: riding in a vintage sidecar through the narrow hutongs, passing iconic landmarks like the Drum Tower of Beijing and the vibrant Houhai. But the real highlight comes at the end. Instead of stopping at typical tourist markets, your journey finishes at a hidden local shop, known only through insider connections. No signs, no online listings — just a door that opens to something unexpected. Inside, you’ll find a selection of designer-style bags, watches, and clothing, with surprisingly high quality and attention to detail — the kind of place where many visitors say it’s hard to tell the difference. This is not your typical sidecar tour — it’s about access, discovery, and a side of Beijing few ever experience.

About Beijing
Beijing, China's capital for centuries, holds imperial palaces, sacred temples and stretches of the Great Wall within reach of its modern boulevards.
At the city's heart, the Forbidden City spreads behind vermilion walls, a labyrinth of halls and courtyards that housed the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Tiananmen Square lies to its south, and the hill of Jingshan Park to its north gives the finest view over its golden roofs. The Temple of Heaven, set in a park where locals practise tai chi and dance, is a masterpiece of imperial design.
Top-ranked sights in Beijing: Mutianyu Great Wall, Forbidden City (Palace Museum), Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang).
