Imperial China and Yangtze River Cruise An excellent introduction to China covering a number of the very diverse facets of the country.
I am inspired to return to China to explore other aspects of the country. In particular the Great Wall trek.
I would recommend travelling with a group, such as Exodus. It is not the easiest country to get about in. There is very little English spoken and most of the signs are in Chinese only. Our tour leader took care of interpretations.
Imperial China Yangzte River Cruise This trip covers many miles, many modes of transport, many different activities and many memorable sights. The itinerary is quite full without feeling too rushed. There is a good mix of history, culture (both new and old) and scenery. Overall it's good value, enjoyable and an experience I wouldn't want to have missed.
An incomparable tour. I have participated in several group tours before, which are ideal, but this trip is the most valuable one. I was impressed by the beautiful scenery of China along the way. We have been to modern and developed cities, and the people we met are also very warm and friendly. I feel that China is one of the safest countries in the world, and it is safe to go out alone at night. China's high-speed railway is probably the fastest, quietest and most modern train I have ever taken. I sincerely recommend such a trip to you!
