My friends Luke and I booked this tour for July 4, and I would say it was one of the best trip we ever had. I had heard of bad news about China and thought about the risks I might be facing, but once I got there, I found China was a rather safe country, even much safer than the US. Most people we met were friendly and willing to help. We had caring tour guides who were willing to make stoppings for bathroom requests as needed, especially our guide Allan in Xian, he answered all our questions in details with patience and kindness.

The travel consultant Candy from Elysian Tour was so helpful to create us an amazing itinerary on the go. The hotels, transfers, dinning and guiding services promised by the travel agency were delivered as expected as well. We went to Beijing, Xian, Chengdu and Shanghai and saw a lot of wonders and amazing sites. The half-day Mutianyu Great Wall hiking was awesome, and the Terracotta Army was really incredible. The most enjoyable part of the trip in my opinion was Chengdu, the home to giant pandas, where we had the best time of our life by joining a panda keeper program. Overall, the 10-day tour was excellent, and I would like to thank Elysian Tour for an outstanding job. Finally, I hope the review above helps.
