Unique private sidecar tour of Beijing - Highly recommend this unique and customized, private tour of Beijing with John who grew up in the city and knows a lot of places off the beaten track, but also can take you to the popular attractions if you wish. He pointed out landmarks en route and explained the historical significance. He brought plenty of beverages and we stopped for local snacks along the way!

Amazing tour, great information - We had a wonderful time with John - he was really thoughtful and helped put together our itinerary based on a combination of sights we wanted to see and suggestions from John. It was also like having our own personal photographer with us as we got lots of great pictures sent our way after. The tour ended with snacks and hot drinks which we also appreciated. Highly recommend for couples, friends, visitors to people who live in Beijing, and anyone who wants to see as much as possible in one day.

Unique Beijing tour with John - must do! - John was super friendly and provided a great tour of Beijing. Really unforgettable experience!
He provided clear communication beforehand and was on time. Really interesting to see the city from a sidecar and John was kind enough to provide a small scarf and lots of tasty tea because of the cold weather.

Easy and memorable! - An easy and special way to see Beijing and it's charms! John was able to provide the history of sites visited, made sure that the ride was comfortable always, and great to chat with. Local lunch snacks were yummy and everything from pre-departure was well organized. Highly recommended

Tour the city by motorbike ! - John is a great tour guide and safe motorcycle rider and can converse in English easily. The tour was well planned out and I got a thorough explanation of the city which made getting around on my own that much easier. We went to interesting and beautiful sites that I would never have visited on my own. Our lunch was all the more special where we had a picnic on the bike eating special Beijing meat dumplings that John got from his favorite lunch spot in the Muslim district on Ox st ( think that’s correct ) , never had anything like them, they were delicious. John helped me out with tickets to visit the temple of heaven right after the tour. He went out of his way to make my visit to the city special and really was engaged in my interest. I suggest doing this tour as your first thing to do when you visit. Super fun even if you are not big bike fan.

Sidecar is the most fun way to see Beijing! - This is the best and most fun way of seeing Beijing! It was greatI was well looked after including lunch with coffee served by the lake. I got to see icons such as the Bell tower and the old city wall of Beijing - this is way easier than trying to get around by yourself. John was such a nice guy!
Do not miss this experience!

Good experience, high cost performance - The experience was very good. The man was very nice and didn't talk much. He had a lot of tattoos and was very friendly. We went to the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven to learn about the culture of Beijing. We tasted Peking duck. We strolled around Qianmen Street in the afternoon and the guy gave us afternoon tea. It was a very enjoyable day. I wish the guy's business will be more prosperous. I look forward to seeing you next time.
