From $98/person
02.Night Experience
Great Wall After Dark
Private transfer out of the city as the sun lowers. The wall at golden hour, emptied of crowds. A tea ceremony on the ancient ramparts as the sky shifts from orange to ink. Then the Milky Way.
From $198/person
03.Eastern Cultural Aesthetics
Tea Ceremony Aesthetics
A private teahouse, three contrasting teas, and the philosophy of slowing time down with a leaf and hot water. You'll leave with a small selection of today's teas.

04.Deep Immersion Journeys
Beijing Deep Culture — 2-Day Journey
From seeing Beijing to actually feeling it — no more skimming the surface. Wander old streets and hutongs, eat where locals eat. Try tuina massage with a real TCM practitioner, brew a cup of tea with your own hands, then walk through the door of a Beijing family's home for a dinner with no menu — just whatever's cooking that night.
From $380/person

Body constitution diagnosis, personalised acupressure massage, Chinese herb dispensary walk. You leave with your own blended herbal tea formula — and a new vocabulary for your body.
