   We offer 3 flexible packages for you to choose from based on your preferences:
   Economy (Guide-Only)
   Guide + Private Vehicle
   Premium (Guide + Vehicle + Dinner).
   
   Our professional guide will pick you up at your downtown Beijing hotel, then head to the first stop of the day—Tian’anmen Square. Important note: If you wish to watch the flag-lowering ceremony, passport number, full name, age and nationality of each guest are required for advance reservation. During peak seasons, security checks for entering the square can take as long as 1–3 hours. In such cases, we recommend either taking our private vehicle to tour around the square or listening to the guide’s detailed historical commentary on the square’s stories while waiting.
2. Qianmen Main Street Mall
   30m
   Next, we move on to Qianmen Old Street and its surrounding areas, a highlight combining shopping, history and food. The street is lined with time-honored brands and traditional shops, including renowned silk stores like Ruifuxiang, tea houses such as Zhang Yiyuan, and more. It’s a perfect place to shop for authentic Beijing souvenirs and experience the charm of century-old commerce.
   
   You can also wander through nearby historic hutongs like Damaochang, which dates back to the Ming Dynasty. These narrow lanes preserve the authentic style of old Beijing, with the guide sharing stories of their past as a hub for craftsmen, bankers and literati—witnessing centuries of urban changes.
   
   Then, dive into Beijing’s street food scene! Famous for exotic treats like fried scorpions and silkworm pupae, the street also offers classic local snacks(at your own cost).
3. National Center for the Performing Arts
   20m
   Following the Qianmen tour, we proceed to the National Centre for the Performing Arts, affectionately known as "the Giant Egg".
   
   This iconic building boasts a striking egg-shaped glass and titanium shell, an architectural marvel blending modern design with the surrounding waterscape. As night falls, the building lights up, casting a shimmering glow on the lake—creating a picture-perfect photo opportunity.
4. Wangfujing Street
   30m
   The final stop is Wangfujing Street, Beijing’s renowned pedestrian boulevard. Neon lights, bustling shops and diverse snack stalls come alive after dark, offering a taste of the city’s vibrant modern nightlife.
   
   At the end of the tour, return arrangements vary by package:
   For the Economy Package, the guide will assist with hailing a taxi (fare at your own expense);
   For the Guide + Vehicle Package, our private car will send you back to your downtown hotel.
   For the Premium Package, the guide will recommend local dining spots tailored to your taste—options include Peking duck, hot pot, Sichuan cuisine or home-style dishes, decided by mutual discussion with the guide.
