G Adventures made traveling in China easy! From the research on best routes and destinations to the myriad of included and optional activities, I don't think I could have planned the same trip solo. Our group was also fantastic and I came out of the tour with new lasting friendships. This was my first trip with G and I am excited to plan more!

This was my first trip with G Adventures, and I chose their 15-day tour of China. We traveled to seven cities, and the trip was incredibly well-planned from start to finish! Our CEO, Wency, was an absolute gem — knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and always ready to help. She made everything easy and enjoyable for us. I highly recommend this tour if you want to experience a wonderful mix of China’s ancient history and modern marvels — from dynasties to skyscrapers! I was lucky to have a fantastic group of fellow travelers, and we shared plenty of laughs. The accommodations and itinerary were both thoughtfully arranged, making it a smooth and memorable journey.

Everything was Perfect. We will defiantly be taking another G adventure across mainland China at some point. Hopefully it will be with Wency!
