This was the most awesome day of our recent tour of China. Two 50-something women in sidecars, heading out of town to a remote area of the Great Wall, having the time of their lives. It was a cool, foggy November day and we were a bit skeptical because of some physical problems and a fear of heights, but they... more

I arrived in Beijing on the last Sunday in October at around midnight from NYC (flight was late) and went to bed around 2 or 3 a.m. for a few hours so I wouldn't miss my tour with Gael and my soon to be friends. I had a dinner beginning at 7 pm Monday so I had to be back... more

My boyfriend and I took our parents to China recently. We wanted to see as many sights as possible in Beijing, but we also wanted to avoid the crowd. We did a two-hour evening tour through the city of Beijing and then the next day we did a full-day tour in the countryside to see the Great Wall and other... more

I was concerned about the weather in November, but Gael assured me they would come prepared to keep us warm for our 2 hour ride. Earlier in the day we had seen a group of sidecars all bundled up and I was assured. But.... our story was not so good: - they arrived an hour late, taking our 2 hours... more

We booked a one day (9-9pm) tour with Gael in late October to take our party of 4 (2 adults/2 kids) on a tour of Beijing and the countryside and out to the Great Wall. The price is hefty - but I can honestly say - worth every dollar. You simply will not have the same impression of Beijing from... more

Beijing sideways was the highlight of our visit to China. A bit pricey, but I would be willing to pay even more for the once-in-a-lifetime experience. If this is your first time in Beijing, book a trip on day two and enjoy the ride! more

I went on a trip out of Beijing and into the wilds with Beijing Sideways with my intrepid host Gael and his fun little dog and me. I was picked up one smoggy morning in Chongwenmen (a shopping mall block) and whisked through the city to the edges beyond. I was amazed at traveling 5 inches off the ground in... more

Booked a tour 3 or 4 days in advance for me and 3 friends. The journey was really incredible. The guys picked us up from where we were staying and drove us out to a deserted section of the great wall by way of the Chinese countryside, the Pagoda Forest, one of the guide's homes for a quick cup of... more

Oh my--this was one of the most enjoyable days I have spent during several trips to China. My wife, son, and I went with Beijing Sideways on a day trip to the Great Wall, and it was the perfect conclusion to our stay. I rode with Ezra, my wife rode with Tristan, and our son rode with Thomas, while a... more
