Hutong bike tour · Our signature Beijing adventure

Get into the hutongs.
Get to know our Beijing.

We don’t run tours. We create local experiences that invite you to join the adventure. Ride, taste and connect with the local life and culture in the hutongs we call home.

Come to be part of Beijing, not to tick off its tourist attractions.

The people make the day

Many stories. One Our Beijing.

For some of us, this adventure started nine years ago. For others, thirty. And for some, it’s only just beginning. Our team brings together people born in Beijing, people who moved here and made it home, and people just joining the adventure. Different stories, one city we love sharing.

A city for every season

Keep exploring when the seasons change.

Leafy lanes, autumn colour and crisp winter days each bring a different side of the hutongs. In colder weather, wrap up in warm layers and bring gloves for the ride. Tell us your travel dates and we’ll help plan around the weather, with time for local flavours along the way.

Local life, up close

Come for the hutongs.
Stay curious.

The lanes. Wind through old neighbourhoods, markets and backstreets around Beixinqiao, Gulou and the lakes.

Fresh flavours. Two street food snacks from people we know and trust. Think sizzling jian bing or a crispy niu rou bing.

The connections. Local stories, a traditional game and the unexpected moments that make each ride its own adventure.

A thoughtfully planned route, with room to go with the flow.
