August 27, 2026
We had a fantastic day exploring Shenzhen's technology scene, and it was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip to China.

Everything was very well organized, from the hotel pickup to the comfortable private vehicle. What we appreciated most was that the day never felt rushed. Our guide gave us plenty of time to experience each activity and was always happy to explain how the technology worked.

The driverless taxi was definitely a highlight. Sitting inside and watching the car navigate the city without a driver was both fascinating and slightly surreal! We also really enjoyed the hands-on robot experiences, especially trying the exoskeleton and interacting with the robot dog. Seeing a delivery drone actually arrive with food made the whole experience feel even more futuristic.

Our guide was wonderful throughout the day—knowledgeable, friendly, and with excellent English. She made the technology easy to understand without turning the tour into a technical lecture.

If you're looking for something beyond Shenzhen's usual sightseeing spots, we highly recommend this tour. It's a fun and very different way to experience how technology is shaping everyday life in the city.

We have just finished our 21-day trip through China, and it was an amazing experience from beginning to end. We saw so many different sides of the country — the pandas and relaxed atmosphere in Chengdu, the history of Xi'an, the energy of Chongqing, the incredible mountains in Zhangjiajie, and then the beautiful landscapes around Guilin and Yangshuo.

What made the trip much easier was the support from our guides and drivers in each destination. They were always on time, helpful with our luggage and transportation, and happy to answer questions. The drivers were particularly good at navigating busy city traffic and mountain roads, and we always felt safe in the cars.

The high-speed trains were comfortable, and having someone meet us at the stations took away a lot of the stress of traveling between cities. It was a long trip, but the pace worked well for us. There were busy sightseeing days, followed by some slower time to relax and explore on our own.

By the end, we were tired but very happy. China is much more diverse than we expected, and this trip gave us a wonderful introduction to it.

We had a very warm day for our tour, but everything was arranged so smoothly that the weather didn't cause any problems. Our guide, Elodie, was friendly and knew a lot about Qingdao's history. She gave us some background before each stop, which made the old buildings much more interesting instead of just looking at them from the outside.

Our driver was also excellent. He handled the city traffic confidently and we felt very comfortable throughout the day. The route was well planned, with enough time to walk around Badaguan, explore the Governor's House, and visit St. Michael's Church.

I especially liked Badaguan because of the old villas and tree-lined streets. It feels quite different from the busier parts of Qingdao. Overall, it was an easy and enjoyable way to discover the city's architectural heritage in a single day.

My wife and I have travelled to China several times, but this was our first time visiting Shandong. We wanted to see more than the usual big cities, and this three-day journey through Jinan, Qufu and Mount Tai turned out to be an excellent choice.

What I enjoyed most was the variety of the trip. Jinan has such a relaxed atmosphere, especially around the springs and old streets. It was fascinating to see how the spring water is still part of everyday life rather than simply something preserved for tourists. The city felt very different from Beijing or Shanghai, and we were glad to have included it.

Qufu gave us a completely different experience. I have always been interested in Chinese history and philosophy, so visiting the hometown of Confucius was particularly meaningful. The historic sites are impressive, but having someone explain the background and traditions made them much easier to appreciate. Without that context, I think we would have missed many of the details.

Mount Tai was the real finale of the trip. We knew there would be quite a bit of walking, but the combination of mountain scenery, ancient inscriptions and historic temples made the effort worthwhile. The views changed constantly as we went higher, and the atmosphere near the top was something I will remember for a long time.

I would also like to mention how smoothly everything was organized. Our driver was punctual, the car was comfortable, and all the transfers between cities were handled without any stress. After a full day of sightseeing, it was particularly nice to simply get into the car and know that everything had already been taken care of.

Our travel consultant was also extremely helpful during the planning stage. We had quite a few questions about the route, transportation and how much time we should allow for Mount Tai, and every question was answered patiently. The itinerary felt well balanced rather than rushed, which is important to us as we prefer to actually enjoy a place instead of simply collecting photographs.

This trip gave us a very different perspective on China. Jinan showed us the everyday charm of a city built around its springs, Qufu introduced us to one of the most influential figures in Chinese history, and Mount Tai brought together nature, religion and centuries of tradition.

For anyone interested in Chinese history and culture, I would certainly recommend spending a few days exploring this part of Shandong. It was a memorable journey, and one that felt very different from our previous trips to China.

I booked this tour because I only had one day in Jinan and didn't want to spend half of it figuring out transportation. Everything was very easy from the beginning. Our guide, Amy,was friendly, knowledgeable and happy to answer all of our random questions about the city. The driver was also very good and the car was comfortable.

Daming Lake was a lovely place to start, but the old streets and waterways were probably my favorite part of the day. I hadn't expected Jinan to have so many little spring pools right in the middle of the city. Seeing locals collecting spring water at Black Tiger Spring was especially interesting.

Baotu Spring was quite busy when we visited, but it was still worth seeing. I also liked that the tour wasn't just one famous attraction after another—we had time to walk around, take photos and enjoy the atmosphere.

Overall, it was a really enjoyable day and a good introduction to Jinan. There is quite a bit of walking, so definitely wear comfortable shoes. The hotel pickup and drop-off were also a big plus for us.

Our guide Clara did a wonderful job from beginning to end. She contacted us before the tour to confirm the pickup details, and everything was well organized on the day. Our driver was also punctual and the car was comfortable.

Baotu Spring was definitely worth seeing, but what made the tour special for us was exploring the older parts of Jinan afterward. We really enjoyed walking through Baihua Zhou and along Qushuiting Street, where the spring water, old houses, and narrow lanes create such a unique atmosphere.

Clara was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She shared interesting stories about Jinan without turning the tour into a history lecture, and she was happy to answer all of our questions.

The pace was excellent as well. We had enough time to take photos and enjoy the surroundings without feeling rushed. Since we only had half a day in Jinan, this was a great way to experience the city. We would definitely recommend Clara and this tour.

We had an amazing six days exploring Guizhou, and the whole experience was very well organized from beginning to end. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure we knew what was happening next. Communication was also excellent, and the transfers between the villages and hotels were smooth and comfortable.

What we loved most about this trip was that it took us far beyond the usual tourist attractions. Zhaoxing Dong Village was beautiful, and learning about traditional batik making was a really interesting experience. Huanggang was another highlight, especially the traditional welcome ceremony and the evening campfire under the Dong drum tower. It felt much more authentic than simply visiting a tourist attraction.

The mountain scenery throughout the trip was fantastic. We enjoyed walking through the smaller Dong and Miao villages, seeing Xiangshuiyan Waterfall, and traveling through the green valleys and karst landscapes. Having lunch at a local family's home was also a lovely personal touch and gave us a chance to experience everyday life in rural Guizhou.

Everything felt relaxed rather than rushed, and our guide was always happy to answer questions or adjust the pace when needed. The combination of beautiful scenery, traditional villages, local food, and genuine cultural experiences made this a very memorable trip.

We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience a quieter and more authentic side of Guizhou. It was a wonderful journey and an experience we will remember for a long time.

Our 5-day trip through Guizhou was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we were picked up in Guiyang, everything was very well organized. The car was comfortable and clean, which made the longer drives between the different areas much easier. Our driver was always punctual and drove very carefully, and we never had to worry about getting around.

The scenery was the real highlight. Zhijin Cave was incredible, Huangguoshu Waterfall was even more impressive than we expected, and the views around Wanfenglin were simply beautiful. We also really enjoyed Maling River Gorge and the quieter countryside along the way.

Lunch was arranged for us each day and was a nice chance to try some local food. What we appreciated most was that the whole trip felt relaxed despite seeing so much in five days. Everything was taken care of without feeling overly scheduled. A great way to experience Guizhou, and we would happily recommend this trip.

We absolutely loved this tour. The itinerary was packed, but it never felt rushed, and the planning was excellent from beginning to end. Our guide, Lily, was knowledgeable and genuinely interested in sharing the local culture with us, which made the visits to the Miao and Dong villages much more meaningful.

The highlight was how different each village felt. Matang and Shiqiao gave us the chance to try traditional crafts, while Langde and Basha offered a wonderful introduction to Miao traditions. Huanggang was particularly memorable because of its peaceful mountain setting, and Zhaoxing was beautiful in the evening.

The final hike from Tang'an to Zhaoxing was the perfect ending. The rice terraces and mountain scenery along the trail were gorgeous, and it was nice to have some time walking through the countryside rather than being in the car.

Our driver was also fantastic — safe, punctual and very helpful with luggage and getting in and out of the more remote areas. Everything was taken care of, including hotel transfers and lunches. For such a remote part of China, having a private guide and driver made the whole experience so much easier.

Definitely worth the time and money if you want to see more than the standard Guizhou attractions.

Our guide Mia was absolutely wonderful and made our four days in Guilin and Yangshuo such a memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, she was friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. She explained everything clearly, answered all of our questions, and always made sure we were comfortable without making the trip feel rushed.

We really enjoyed how varied the itinerary was. We got to experience local food, the countryside, the beautiful karst scenery, and some fun activities that we probably wouldn't have discovered on our own. Mia also did a great job adjusting the pace when we needed a little extra time and always seemed to know the right place to stop for a break or a meal.

The transportation was very well organised throughout the trip, and having someone meet us at the station and take care of the transfers made everything so much easier. We never had to worry about finding our way around or figuring out the next part of the journey.

A special thank you to Mia for her patience, kindness, and attention to detail. She genuinely cared about making sure we had a good experience, and that made a big difference to our family. We came away with some wonderful memories of Guilin and Yangshuo and would happily recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.

Thank you again, Mia, for taking such good care of us and helping make our trip so enjoyable. We truly appreciate everything you did!

The Hanfu evening was something I almost skipped because I thought it might be too touristy. I'm very glad I didn't. Walking around Luoyi Ancient City dressed up, with the lights coming on and little performances happening around the streets, was genuinely fun. It was probably the most playful part of the trip after several days of museums and historical sites. Also, I ate far too many snacks that night.

August 13, 2026
The timing of our trip was mainly based on the peony season, and we were very happy with our choice. The National Peony Garden was beautiful and there were flowers everywhere. It was probably the most relaxing part of the two days.

Before that, we had visited Longmen Grottoes and the old city. Longmen was impressive, but having a knowledgeable guide made it much more meaningful. She explained the history and answered all our questions without making the visit feel like a formal lecture.

Lunch was included on both days and was a nice opportunity to try some local food. We also appreciated that the driver was always waiting when we finished sightseeing, so we never had to worry about finding transportation.

A short but very enjoyable Luoyang experience. We would definitely recommend visiting during the peony season.

What a memorable few days in Luoyang! We arrived by high-speed train and were met right at the station, which made everything very easy after the journey. The trip had a really nice mix of history, culture and fun, from Shaolin and its Kung Fu performance to exploring Luoyang's ancient sites.

The highlight for us was definitely the Hanfu experience. The hair and makeup took some time, but the finished look was absolutely worth it. Walking around the historic sites in Hanfu and having our guide take photos along the way made the day feel completely different from a normal sightseeing tour. We also tried Chinese calligraphy, which was much harder than it looked!

Everything was well organized, the car was comfortable, and we never felt like we were being rushed from one place to the next. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely fun to spend the day with. We left Luoyang with some great memories — and probably far too many Hanfu photos!

I was expecting this to be mostly a Shaolin Temple sightseeing trip, so the morning at the martial arts school was a really nice surprise. We got there early and watched the students training before joining some of the basic exercises. I lasted considerably less time than they did! The two-hour Kung Fu lesson was probably my favorite part. It was much more about stance, balance and repetition than I expected, which made me appreciate the performance on the last day a lot more. The driver was also very punctual throughout the trip, which made everything feel easy.

What a fantastic four days! We arrived in Luoyang by high-speed train around lunchtime and our driver was already waiting for us at the station. After lunch, we headed straight to the Longmen Grottoes. I had seen photos before, but they really don't prepare you for how impressive the grottoes are when you’re standing beside the river looking up at the cliffs.

Our driver was excellent throughout the trip. The car was clean and comfortable, and there was always cold water waiting for us after walking around the sights. He was also very good at keeping everything running smoothly without making us feel rushed.

The next day we went to Shaolin Temple and the Pagoda Forest before watching the Kung Fu show. The show was great fun and some of the moves were absolutely unbelievable. We then continued on to Zhengzhou, which made the whole route very easy.

Kaifeng was another highlight. Longting and the Iron Pagoda were interesting, but I particularly enjoyed Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden in the afternoon. The old streets, bridges and waterways gave us a completely different feel from Luoyang.

The combination of ancient history, beautiful scenery, good food and very easy transportation made this a wonderful introduction to Henan. Four days went by far too quickly!

Our guide Lena was absolutely wonderful and made our two days in Luoyang such a memorable experience. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s long history and brought the stories behind Longmen Grottoes and White Horse Temple to life in a way that was fascinating and easy to follow.

Lena was also extremely thoughtful throughout the trip. She checked that we were comfortable, helped with our train arrangements, and adjusted the timing when we wanted a little more time in the Old Town. Her warm personality and genuine enthusiasm for Luoyang really made a difference.

I would highly recommend Lena to anyone visiting Luoyang. She made the history interesting, the logistics easy, and the whole experience feel very personal. Thank you, Lena, for such a fantastic two days!

Nessa was absolutely fantastic and made our two days in Luoyang and Shaolin so much more enjoyable than we expected. From the moment she met us at the train station, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly easy to travel with.

Our first day started with Longmen Grottoes, and Nessa did a wonderful job bringing the history to life without overwhelming us with too many facts. She pointed out details we definitely would have missed on our own, and having time to walk along the river and take in the scenery made the visit even more memorable.

We also loved exploring the old town in the evening. Nessa recommended some local food and gave us plenty of time to wander around rather than rushing us from one place to another.

The following morning, we headed to Shaolin Temple and the Pagoda Forest. The temple was peaceful and beautiful, while the Kung Fu performance was the complete opposite—fast, energetic, and seriously impressive! Nessa made sure we had enough time at each place and was always checking that we were comfortable.

Our driver was also punctual and the car was comfortable throughout the trip. Everything was well organised, especially getting us back in time for our train at the end of the second day.

A huge thank you to Nessa for making the whole experience feel so relaxed and personal. If you're visiting Luoyang and want to see both the history of the city and the spirit of Shaolin, I'd definitely recommend this tour!

We had a wonderful day exploring Luoyang with this tour. Everything was well organized from the moment we arrived by high-speed train. Our driver was waiting for us at the station, and the transfers between each place were smooth and comfortable.

Longmen Grottoes was the highlight of the day, and our guide did a great job explaining the history and stories behind the incredible carvings. We also really enjoyed visiting White Horse Temple and learning more about its importance in Chinese Buddhist history.

Lunch was well arranged, and it was nice to try some local Luoyang dishes without having to worry about finding a restaurant ourselves. What we appreciated most was how attentive the team was to our schedule, especially making sure we had enough time to enjoy each place while still getting back to the railway station comfortably for our return train.

A very enjoyable and stress-free way to experience Luoyang in one day. Highly recommended!

A huge thank you to Mireille for making our day in Luoyang and Shaolin such a wonderful experience!

Everything was very well organized from the moment we arrived by high-speed train. Mireille met us at the station and took great care of us throughout the day. The transfers between Luoyang and Dengfeng were smooth, and we never had to worry about transportation or timing.

The Longmen Grottoes were absolutely fascinating. Mireille’s explanations were clear, engaging, and full of interesting stories, which helped us appreciate the carvings much more. After a delicious local lunch, we continued to Shaolin Temple and the Pagoda Forest, where we learned about the temple’s fascinating connection with Zen Buddhism and martial arts.

The Shaolin kung fu performance was a fantastic way to finish the day. Seeing the incredible skills live was definitely one of the highlights of our China trip!

Mireille was warm, knowledgeable, and professional throughout. She kept everything running smoothly without ever making us feel rushed.

We highly recommend Mireille to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organized day trip combining Longmen Grottoes and Shaolin Temple. Thank you again for an unforgettable day!

The tour was very well organized, and everything went smoothly from Jinan to Tai’an and then Qufu. At first we thought traveling between three cities in four days was going to be tiring and complicated, but the whole trip was much easier than we expected.

Our guide Emma was fantastic. She helped us with all the tickets, hotel pickups and transfers, so we never had to worry about booking things or finding transportation. She also told us many interesting stories about the history and culture of each place.

We really enjoyed Baotu Spring and Daming Lake in Jinan, and Dai Temple was a great introduction to Mount Tai. Mount Tai was definitely the most tiring day, but the views were beautiful and Emma was very patient with us, making sure we had enough time to rest.

The drive to Qufu was very comfortable, and visiting the Confucius Temple, Confucius Mansion and Family Tomb was a great way to finish the trip. The lunches and private transportation were also included, which made everything very convenient.

A fantastic way to see this part of China without having to worry about all the logistics. Highly recommended!

Is China safe for international travelers?

China is widely considered one of the safest countries in the world for international travelers, including families, solo travelers, and first-time visitors. With modern infrastructure, efficient transportation, convenient digital payments, and strong public safety standards, traveling in China is smooth, secure, and highly comfortable.

What’s the visa free policy of China?

China currently offers multiple visa-free transit policies, including 24-hour, 72-hour, 144-hour, and in many regions up to 240-hour visa-free transit for eligible travelers.

Why choose a private China tour instead of group tour?

Private tours offer greater flexibility, comfort, and personalization. You travel at your own pace, customize your itinerary, avoid large groups, and enjoy dedicated guides and drivers focused entirely on your experience.

Private tours key advantages:
A) Better guide experience
Private guides provide full attention, deeper explanations, and a more interactive and personalized way to explore each destination.

B) Comfortable door-to-door transportation
In many scenic areas in China, large tour buses cannot access directly, and guests often need to walk long distances after being dropped off. Private transportation offers door-to-door service, reduces walking, saves time, and makes the journey significantly more relaxed and comfortable.

C) Deeper cultural experience & full flexibility
With one-on-one guide service, you gain richer insights into history, culture, and local life. You can ask questions anytime, and your guide can also help capture photos at the best locations. Most importantly, you travel at your own pace without being rushed by fixed group schedules.

D) Better dining experience
Unlike group tours with fixed basic meals, private tours offer flexible dining options. We recommend restaurants based on your preferences, and you can freely choose dishes while your guide assists with ordering and payment.

How do we help you experience the real China?

We believe authentic travel comes from participation, connection, and local experiences. Depending on your interests, we can arrange immersive cultural activities such as Tai Chi classes, Kung Fu lessons, traditional tea ceremonies, calligraphy experiences, local market visits, and hands-on cooking experiences like dumpling or noodle making.

Food lovers can explore regional cuisine with local food tours and family-style dining experiences, while culture enthusiasts can discover traditional crafts, historic neighborhoods, and local lifestyles guided by people who truly know the destination. Every experience is designed to help you connect with China in a more personal and meaningful way.
