Asia's gay travel pioneers, offering Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, India and China

Our BEIJING BASICS package is designed for return guests who have already seen the main sights. Settle in quickly and set your own itinerary. The bewildering pace of change in the capital city means that shops, restaurants and nightclubs may have closed, moved, or been replaced by newer, trendier venues. Our knowledgeable guide is at your service, to help get you back up-to-speed on the current scene and scenery. You do not have to be gay to enjoy this package. Our mainstream guests choose us because they know they will get something better from a gay company.

Private transfer from the airport to your hotel. If you arrive early in the day, consider taking one of our unique day trips to some of Beijing's more offbeat attractions. Otherwise, you are free to explore on your own. Our guide is available on one night of your stay to join you for dinner and introduce you to any newly-opened venues which may have popped up since your last visit (Friday and Saturday nights are best for nightlife).

Plan your own schedule today with your private guide who is at your service from 10am - 6pm: shopping, sight-seeing, hunting up old friends or meeting new ones. If your visit falls on a weekend, don't miss a chance to shop at the fabulous Panjiayuan flea market with treasures from all over central Asia, and a fantastic dumpling shop nearby that our guide knows. Your evening is free, or consider an optional outing in the company of our guide to see Beijing's famous acrobats or Chinese opera.

Free time until your private transfer to the airport or extend your stay to discover more delights in Xian, Shanghai, Guilin, Hong Kong and Macau or Thailand and Vietnam.
