Heard about Beijing’s hutong alleyways, but not sure what to do or where to go? Join us for breakfast as we sample the most authentic and delicious snacks that are hiding in plain sight, once you get off the crowded roads and into the backstreets. Wake up early and explore the culinary scene with our trusted vendors, your bilingual guide and a small group of new foodie friends. Over the course of three hours, you’ll eat your way through China’s 5,000 years of culinary history, try new foods and gain an appreciation for the artisans making these handmade treats.

We’ll meander through some of Beijing’s oldest, original hutongs – we don’t take you to rebuilt or crowded areas filled with tourists. Step away from the hotel buffet and explore a historic and local neighborhood, brimming with local vendors and hole-in-the-wall eateries.

On the tour, we sample more than 10 tastings at 4 seated stops, coffee or tea, bottled water, soft drinks & local rice wine, market visit, bilingual guide, post-tour Beijing welcome pack with helpful restaurant recommendations, local travel tips & so much more to help make your stay in Beijing easy & fun.
