Special Christmas Eve
The shows are spectacular! Fantastic! A must-see in Beijing! Mark, the guide and driver, was nice, kind, attentive, polite, professional, and very patient with me. He drove me around the city, to the presentations, and we had dinner together because it was Christmas Eve and he didn't want to leave me alone! A very warm and friendly attitude, for sure! He is a very nice guy and guide! I strongly recommend Mark and this tour! By the way, his car is very comfortable and brand new!

Fascinated and Happy
Of the best tour I've ever done. The one-way taxi driver was as professional as he could be. He cared at all times, making us feel great. I solve our problems by traffic and different direction. I recommend it 100% and the back to our hotel also very resolute. So it's nice to hire tours. We were at a shared table in the second row. An exceptional view with a small brunch and tea. There are options to order drinks separately. In addition to understanding the story they tell, there are screens that show in English what it is about. I'd repeat if I was around for more days. I recommend it to everyone.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Beijing Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Beijing Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $70 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 Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer 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 Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer?
+
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 Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer 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 Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer?
+
Around 1 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 Night Tour Of Peking Opera Show Including Private Transfer 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.
