We traveled as a group of friends so we booked this small group tour to Beijing, Shanghai, Zhangjiajie and Hong Kong with PandaTourism. The Great Wall in Beijing was spectacular, and the mountains in Zhangjiajie also left us speechless. Our guides were not only fluent in English but also warm and engaging, and the local support team was quick to address any questions we had during the trip. The smooth logistics and thoughtful itinerary made this a five-star experience. Thank you Panda Tourism, we have created wonderful memories.

My wife really wanted to visit China so took her there after thanksgiving. I didn’t know what to expect when booking this trip, but wow, China totally blew me away. The country isn't what I imagined at all.... It's so modern like 2050??!! The cities themselves is plenty to see, but if you go to the sights, you MUST see Terracotta warriors!! The organization from Panda Tourism was all so smooth. They seem to have lots of exeperience doing this stuff. The guides, Chris, Lily, Ling were all super chill and easy to talk to. We wanted a more relaxed and slow paced tour, so our tour planning person gave us some free time for us to wander around Shanghai and soak in the vibe. Still can't get over the xiaolongbaos. Officially my fave city in Asia now. Couldn’t have asked for a better trip. Thank you!

Not our first time in china. Decided to get a guide to understand the garden and lake designs better. I recommend it for anyone who really wants to understand the history of the Suzhou gardens and this area of China. Nanjing was unexpectedly beautiful. Logistics wise, from the moment we landed in Shanghai, they had everything covered, we took trains and had private cars. Returning to Shanghai felt like a dream after Covid, glad we could come again after 8 years, definitely a lot has changed since our last trip. The Eastern china tour is great, we recommend it especially for seniors, it's more relaxed and very, very rich in history. It's especially a great background setting for learning about ancient chinese painting, literature, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
