Free walking tours in Beijing

Roy’s tour commentary was great! During the 2+ hour walk, I learnt so many things despite coming from a Chinese descent myself.

We had a great experience knowing more about Beijing and the history of China with Roy. He patiently explained details and curiosities. His English is good and we were able to understand and ask questions during the tour. We highly recommend the tour with him.

Great tour to explore the hutongs and learn Chinese history and many other interesting topics. Very enjoyable and informative for adults as well as kids.

The tour was very interesting and I learned a lot of interesting stories. Highly recommended

Great way to see and explore Hutong. Very interesting and entertaining! Learned many new things! Very easy to sign up. Definitely recommend to everyone!

Echo was a great guide. Interesting and friendly. We learned a lot and felt very comfortable. Thank you

Very nice and interesting

Echo was easy to communicate with. I only had a layover at Beijing and she catered to my needs and made my short stay at Beijing memorable.

She is very informative and familiar with old Beijing and trying calligraphy was so much fun

It was great to meet Roy. The tour was complete, and he shared very good information about the city and the history of China. Also we got tips for the remaining of our trip, which is so important to know from a local.

Echo is professional and shares passionately the history of forbidden city , the tour is interesting and engaging.

Really informative tour around the imperial area of the city. Plenty of tips and recommendations of places to eat and see around.

We had an amazing full-day tour of Beijing with Echo! We covered a massive amount of ground, and while it was definitely an exhausting trek, it was worth every single step. Echo expertly guided us through the Temple of Heaven, found a great local spot for lunch to help us refuel, and then navigated us through the vast history of Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. We capped off the day by hiking up Jingshan Park—right north of the palace—for a perfect panoramic view. Echo's deep knowledge and energy kept us engaged the entire time. Highly recommend her if you want a comprehensive, boots-on-the-ground exploration of Beijing's best!

Die Tour mit Roi war echt super! Er hat uns einen spannenden Einblick rund um die Geschichte Chinas und Pekings gegeben. Wir können die Tour jedem empfehlen. Vielen Dank!:)

Roy Li is a great guide who knows a lot about the hutongs and their history. he gives a lot of interesting yet also surprising information, sometimes even some fun facts. i really enjoyed my tour

So so good!

Such a great tour of the imperial city! Learned so much from my fantastic guide, Roy!! Would definitely recommend booking this tour!

I felt that Roy was genuinely passionate about sharing Chinese history, culture, and good tourist spots. He was very friendly, professional, and funny!

What a great tour !!! Interesting history, facts, culture and places to visit!

Amazing tour! Perfect for your first day in Beijing. Our guide made history and local daily life super engaging with great stories and fun activities in hutong. We played traditional local games, tried calligraph, learned about local handicrafts, and had a yummy little snack stop. So much fun packed into just 3.5 hours! Don’t think twice, book it — you’ll have an awesome time!

Roy is a fantastic guide! He provided amazing insights into Beijing’s culture and hidden gems that we never would have found on our own. He is professional, friendly, and truly goes above and beyond.

We made a very nice tour with Roy… He’s a guide very clever and dynamic. His presentation is so interactive that we were very interested! He is professional and we recommend him … He let us a good address for lunch and we enjoyed a lot. Thanks. Best regards

April is an excellent guide, professional, engaging and very knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour with her.

Best tour I've ever been on. I've gone on free walking tours all over the world, and Roy has been the best. Because I'm also Chinese-American, he explained the Chinese words to me as well. We saw all the big sights and sounds, and he explained to me much of the history of Beijing, as well as places to go and things to eat later. Great tour, would highly recommend to anyone. His English is perfect.

Roy was a great guide. We learnt a lot from the tour. Thanks Roy!
