China Tours and Trips

I went on a 5d/4n Yangtze River cruise from Yichang to Chongqing. The cruise ship was relatively new and the cabin was clean and comfortable. There was enough food selection to cater for everyone’s tastes. The crew members were very helpful and polite, one (Cindy) even helped me get the food for every meal. There were also enough activities on board like movies, spa etc if one opted out of land excursions. The land excursions were very enjoyable. Despite my temporary restricted mobility, I was assisted in getting on and off the ship and when the wheelchair was required, the staff members offered to help in pushing it. Thalia from AOT had been exceptionally helpful, advising me on which land excursion was not suitable for me and even sent a requested foldable stool to the hotel for my use in the shower on our extended 2-day stay in Chongqing post cruise. Overall, this cruise had been a very good and pleasant experience for me.

The trip overall was incredible! Every aspect was planned out and coordinated, and as a trip manager was incredible. Very good balance of fun and informative, whilst also staying on top of it the entire time. China is such a beautiful country, and everyone should go and explore it if they ever get the chance. Highly recommended!!

An awesome variety of Great Wall walking - the best part of the trip. Challenging at times but more than doable for the moderately fit. Fantastic to get away from the usual busy parts of the wall and have the chance to get away from it all. Spectacular!

This was a well designed tour with times on the Great Wall where no other tourists were seen. There is a mix of unrestored wall in various conditions and restored parts to hike along. Just what I was after. The tour guide, John, was very knowledgeable and interested in the history of both the wall and China. He was also very patient. The Xi'an extension was also good, but I would love to have had the chance to see pandas and think this should be added to the itinerary. Unfortunately, our group could only fit in visiting on a Monday when the nature reserve is closed.

Heartfelt Thanks for an Amazing China Trip! Dear Olivia, I hope this message finds you well. Our family of four recently returned from our trip to China, we wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for all your efforts in making it such a wonderful experience. From the seamless arrangements—the comfortable car, professional driver, and knowledgeable guides—to the well-planned itinerary, every detail was executed perfectly. We truly felt cared for throughout our journey, and it’s all thanks to your hard work and attention to detail. We had an incredible time exploring China’s beautiful sights and culture, and much of that joy came from knowing everything was so well taken care of behind the scenes. Your dedication made our trip stress-free and memorable. Please also extend our gratitude to the rest of your team. Wishing you all the best, and thank you once again. Kyle 2025 September

A trip with spectacular scenery and delicious food! Our excellent guide John worked hard to meet the diverse needs of the group and we felt really looked-after. The walking on the Wall is quite intense, with lots of inclines and lots of wild areas, but it was worth it for the views and for the experience.
