Your adventure begins with a hotel pickup in one of our vintage sidecars. Depending on your hotel’s location, you may cruise past some of Beijing’s most iconic landmarks, such as Bell&Drum Tower, Houhai Lake, Qianmen Gate, the National Centre for the Performing Arts, and more—offering a unique view of the city from the sidecar seat.

Our destination is the historic Baitasi (White Pagoda Temple) district, an atmospheric neighborhood rich with culture and charm. Unlike the heavily touristed areas of the city, Baitasi is a hidden gem, home to a maze of quiet hutongs that still preserve the authentic rhythm of old Beijing life. Here, you won’t find souvenir shops or commercial food stalls—instead, you’ll be immersed in a local community where generations of Beijingers live, eat, and connect.

Once we arrive, your sidecar journey transitions into a guided walking food tour. Led by our knowledgeable local guide, you’ll wander through narrow alleyways and stop at a carefully curated selection of family-run eateries and hidden food stalls. From savory dumplings and hand-pulled noodles to traditional Beijing snacks like zhajiangmian and crispy-fried treats, you’ll sample a range of flavors that represent the heart and soul of Beijing cuisine.

Along the way, you’ll also learn about the history of the area, the stories behind each dish, and gain insight into daily life in Beijing’s hutongs. Whether you’re a food lover, culture enthusiast, or just seeking an off-the-beaten-path experience, this tour combines adventure, flavor, and local heritage in the most memorable way. Come hungry—and ready to explore Beijing as few ever get to.
