Reviews of our Shanghai Tours for May
Feedback from guests whose tour started in/around Shanghai during May.
This tour was a very good tour blending a mix of cities but also countryside and nature with amazing landscapes where you got to see all the main tourist attractions and was a great introduction to China. Ricky our guide was very good and went above and beyond in a lot of ways for everyone.
I had a great time. The group was very nice. The CEO was great as well. I also like the Solo-ish concept. I appreciate that we stayed longer than one night in Shanghai, Xi'an and Beijing. My greatest experiences were: The Great Wall, the time we spent in Shanghai, the Cooking Class in Shanghai, the chopstick making lesson and the time in Luoyang. The other experiences were good or very good as well. The only exception is the Dumpling Making class in Jinshanling which was too much since we arrived very late. Other than that, I really loved the food in China. The restaurant choices of our CEO and her guidance and recommendations regarding food were great.
G Adventures has nailed it with this tour. The itinerary is exciting and engaging. The tour guide was world class. If you want to experience a small part of China in a short amount of time, this is the tour. Also the fact that it was a Solo-Ish tour made it even better - it gets you out of your bubble and when you have a great group, you have a great energy and you walk away from the tour feeling like you’ve made some real friends. China, I will be back!!
This was such an amazing tour. Our guide was really lovely, spoke good English, was knowledgeable about the area, and kept it at our pace. First piece of advice, start hungry, and by the end of the day you will be full. Highlight was sitting on a little non-tourist street having breakfast with the locals. The twisted bread and the soup dumpling are just to die for! The pecking duck and the peanut noodles were also AMAZING!
Superb trip with plenty to see and do. The Great Wall is amazing, the Terracotta Warriors fascinating as was the Han Yangling Mausoleum. The Shanghai Museum should really be included and not optional. The visit to the Giant Panda breeding research base was great. Plenty of exercise to work off the effects of the delicious food with walking the Wall, dancing in the park, cycling the walls at Xi’an and cycling through the stunning scenery of Yangshuo.
Peter Wong was a very good guide. He explained in detail the history of China from the early ages until the present day. I found the trip very educational. The fastness of landscapes, with high rise flats, went on forever. The train stations were enormous and larger than most airports. The motorways didn't seem to have any traffic jams because they were gigantic, and they were numerous in number. The culture was interesting, and I enjoyed the operas and dance, and there belief in Buddha. The great wall was very impressive, and I really enjoyed walking it, for me it was the highlight of the trip. The terracotta worriers were amazing, and I also was captivated by the Pandas. The overall experience was mind blowing, but I would not like to live there. I would like to mention the cooking class. Would this class be better held later in the day, as most of us were very full up so soon after breakfast. I would like to thank all of those involved with the planning and organisation of this trip.
