10/10 Experience!! Definitely Recommend
Kevin was awesome. Not only was he helpful with explaining everything to us, he waited patiently until we were done with our Great Wall experience. He also took extra time to take us to local Jade shop and tea house which made this experience even 100x better. I would definitely recommend this company and our driver Kevin!!

Nice evening
We like to experience authentic food and cultural shows so booked this tour. We really enjoyed the entertainment and the food was plentiful. Afterwards, we had a driving night tour of some of the main sites. It is a bit on the expensive side, but I recommend it nonetheless.
Response from the operator: Dear ELAINE, Thank you for choosing our tour and we are so glad you enjoyed it. All the best,

BaJiaDaYuan and night sightseeing
I have decided to take up this tour as it would provide the ambience and vibes of the emperor’s dinning experience, coupled with traditional shows i.e 变脸, high pitch singing and dancing. Whilst the food was dished on very nice porcelain plates to simulate emperor’s dinning, the highlight was the tour around the palace. The staff were dressed as 格格 and were very forthcoming to take photos. It was an awesome experience. My guide Angela was very knowledgeable and accommodating too. She had assisted me to take a couple of good videos and photos for my memories. She also helped me took very good photos at the 鸟巢and钉字塔。 Overall it is enjoyable and I would highly recommend this tour to others.
Response from the operator: Dear Yiqing, We are so glad you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for sharing your experience here and your recommendation. Thanks a lot, Violet

Felt like dining with ancient Chinese Emperor! What a very unique dinner experience!
The best dinner show in Beijing... great food, imperial treatment, and great cultural show including dance, face mask changing (same show as in Haidilao's), musician playing a traditional stringed instrument... felt like we were back in ancient China having dinner with the Emperor! Garden with lanterns and roses and laser lights added to the already magnificent ambience. Highly recommended experience if you visit Beijing. Kevin was our driver/tour guide and he helped us order our food. It was raining that night so we just cancelled the night tour. But the dinner experience made up for everything, that we were so impressed and very much satisfied that we just wanted to go back to the hotel and called it a day.
Response from the operator: Dear Elmer, We are so glad you enjoyed the dinner and thank you for sharing the details. Thanks a lot. Best regards,

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $38 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beijing is not rushed.
Is Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beijing can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Beijing Imperial Dinning Experience with Night Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beijing within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Beijing?
+
On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options, Beijing: Top 6 Highlights All Inclusive 2-Day Private Tour, Private Mutianyu Great Wall Trip With English-Speaking Driver. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Beijing?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Beijing?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
