Free Walking Tours through Imperial Beijing

Absolutely recommendable to do a Tour with Roy. He Shared a Lot of Information that helps to get a better idea of the history of Bejing and it’s people. He also explained a lot interesting things about the food and had a great recomendation for a Restaurant. He is a very friendly and engaging Person and answered all our questions- it was a fun tour!

Roy was fantastic, spoke english perfectly, made jokes, was very informative, entertaining, professional and interacted well with the group. Also made time for any questions, even non tour related questions! Highly recommended and the tour is easily worth 250 yuan!

Our experience exploring Beijing was absolutely unforgettable, and that was entirely thanks to our incredible guide Roy Li. From the moment we met, it felt less like a tour and more like being shown around by a knowledgeable friend who truly loves their city. What stood out most was the depth of insight Roy shared, not just historical facts, but the stories, traditions, and everyday life that make the hutongs so special. They brought the narrow alleys and courtyard homes to life in a way we never could have experienced on our own. We learned about local customs, family life, and how the area has evolved over time, all while feeling completely engaged. Roy pointed out hidden gems we would have easily missed and gave us great recommendations for food and places to explore afterward. If you’re visiting Beijing, this is an absolute must-do. The hutongs are fascinating on their own, but with a guide like this, they become something truly meaningful. This is a great tour to not only learn about local Chinese life, but also China history, local customs, & Beijing in general. Highly, highly recommend this all in one tour with Roy!

Roy was an amazing guide. We are so grateful to join this tour. We learned so much about the history of China from Roy. Highly recommend this tour when visiting Beijing.

Roy was great, informative and easily understood. He did a wonderful job.

It was a very interesting tour with Roy! His storytelling style was easy to understand and we really enjoyed listening to all the information! We can highly recommend the tour :)

We had a fantastic tour with Roy. He told us about life in ancient China and what it's like today in the hutongs. Highly recommended!! Thanks, Roy!!!

One of the best guru walking tours we have had. Roy provides great insight on Beijing and its very interesting history. Highly recommend Roy and this tour.

Super plaisant d'avoir eu un tour guidé avec Roy, personne très intéressante en plus d'être passionné par son travail. Tour totalement en anglais Highly recommend 👍👍👍

Very engaging walking tour with Roy! He is very knowledgeable and shared a lot about the history of the area, which was refreshing and an exciting start to our China trip. We liked that it was a small group and we could listen to him share with great detail without any distraction. Roy also shared a list of hidden gems for us to visit after the trip.

Excellent guide.. lots of local knowledge

Royal was a great guide. He's very knowledgeable and made the tour fun. I would highly recommend his tour.

De Viaje por los Hutongs de Beijing. Roy show us and explain us how the Hutongs where develop and What it means that type of neighborhood today. We ended by the Drum Tower and was a fantastic tour rich in History by this storyteller

Such an amazing tour! 100% recommended. First of all, a perfect English. Combine that with a deep understanding of China's history & culture, a passionate guide that travels everyday from Hebei province to share his passion, and you get a perfect combo. Great personality and an open mind, sharing with you the touristy place as well as the less touristy ones, witty and funny jokes + a heartwarming overall personality. If it is your first days in Beijing, I recommend you starting with this tour. And Roy if you ever read this, wishing you a happy Chinese New Year to you & yours!

Superb tour. Roy was a fantastic tour guide - best one we have had in China by far. Learnt a lot!

Fantastic guide! I'd highly recommend Roy.

Nuestro guía era muy majo. Nos explicó muy bien (habla muy bien inglés) y con ilustraciones antiguas. La visita fue muy amena y pasó muy de prisa. Me hubiera quedado dando más vueltas. Vimos los hutongs y entendimos la historia. Lo recomiendo mucho, os encantará. Además se le puede pedir muchos otros tours ya que es guía profesional.

Hicimos el tour en inglés, fue estupendo Li nos explicó todo genial. Lo recomiendo un montón

Very good tour guide! Lots of interesting information and places. Any time again.

Roy‘s tour was definitely a highlight of my time in Beijing. He gave me many insights into Chinese history and culture and would answer questions around my stay in the city. Would highly recommend!

Súper recomendable. Simpático, educado, educativo. Top
