We just returned from our 10 days China trip. I did a lot of research before planning the tour, and finally we chose Elysian Tour considering their high ratings on TripAdvisor. We had a great time in China. Beijing, Xian, Chengdu and Shanghai were all amazing places, where we saw and learned much more than what was included in the tour. Personally, I loved the hiking on the imposing Great Wall of Beijing and the panda holding experience in Chengdu. We entire families were big fans of giant pandas, and it was a lifetime chance to have a romantic meeting with them. Besides, the terracotta army in Xian and skyscrapers of Shanghai brought us a lot of surprises, too. As for the tour guides, their full dedication to job really impressed us. They were all professional and attentive to show us how wonderful China was. All in all, the itinerary was scheduled in a well-paced and smooth way. We had no problem at all throughout the whole trip though it was our first time to visit China and we could speak little mandarin. If you're planning a China trip, Elysian Tour would be your go-to agency.
