I did this tour in the evening, which was a pleasant time to do it since, as well as the nice temperature, I got to see people enjoying their evening time. Riding through the alleys was lovely and riding past Tianamen Square at night was surreal. The guide gave good information and led well around an enjoyable course. Highly recommended.
