Last weekend I escaped my worries for a while on a family trip to Guilin, somewhere I had never visited before. With this tour, we could have a nice and convenient tour from Beijing to Guilin. From the first start, the staff has picked us up right in front of our resident in Beijing then transferred us to Beijing Capital Airport for domestic flight to Guilin. On the first day, in the morning, we could directly visit Guilin famous attractions such as Elephant Trunk Hill and Reed Flute Cave. My first impression about Guilin as I exited the airport was that it reminds me of my hometown in back. There has fresh air, no pollution, great landscapes, more nature and extremely calm.

One of Our Great Shots in Reed Flute Cave

So, my trip began as we did visit Reed Flute Cave, first attraction that made me shocked. Not far enough from the city, we took about one hour tour explore the cave where we could see many beautiful stalagmites and stalactites equipped with an artificial lighting system. So beautiful indeed but it was so hard to capture it by camera, might be because of its lighting system. We should take some shoots first till we got the pictures that we want. Next stop is Elephant Trunk Hill which can be said is the symbol of tourism in Guilin. But for honest, I could not find something special with the stone, it is just about the stone which shapes like an elephant drinking water from the river. Unique form, but nothing more!

Back to Nature, Back to Yangshuo in Guilin

And on the second day, last full day tour in Guilin, our guide took us for a visit to Yangshuo, small town near Guilin by ship. Cruising along Li River, have sightseeing in surroundings was relaxing. Great escape from the crowded city Beijing to the nature, I had a nice vacation. Yangshuo is a beautiful town surrounded by stunning karsts mountain landscapes. Very impressive! Tour guide brought us to visit many important spots in Yangshuo and explained everything interesting about the town. From her explanation, it makes me have some other plan for create our own trip privately to Yangshuo another time. Since I have a job in Beijing, so we have lots of time in China, we can travel Yangshuo again next vacation. Thank you for this organized trip, we enjoyed every detail of it from the beginning till the end of our holiday.

My first flight to China this year was so interesting and memorable. That was my second time visit Beijing and I would like to recall my memories back. So last time I visit the city, I did not have a chance for visit Forbidden City so this time I would like to have my own personally experience see this ancient palace. With my family, I could have an organized trip visited Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and Temple of Heaven in Beijing. Everything was so prepared, from the hotel, itinerary, driver, van, tour guides etc. The city was like last time I did visit it, same condition, clean environment, organized traffic regulation and nice weather. So happy I could back to Beijing this time with my family.

Stunning Old Classical Chinese Garden of Yuyuan Garden

Besides Beijing, this time I did have chance explored Shanghai. My wife and kids were so excited to enjoy the atmosphere and have fun in this modern city of China. So before the trip, I asked our tour agency about how long that I should stay in Shanghai then we got the answer. Since actually we did not have lots of spare time in China so I did stay only 2 days in Shanghai. Thanks to our travel agency for arranging the tour itinerary for us.

The Symbol and Center of Shanghai, The Bund

From Yuyuan Garden, a famous Chinese classical garden till the Bund, symbol of this modern city Shanghai, a travel explore everything representative in Shanghai was priceless. We had seriously fun vacation in Shanghai. My kids specially love the city and its environment. There are so many entertainment spots such as, The Bund, Nanjing Road, Xintiandi etc. A cruise short trip along Huangpu River was memorable and interesting. Although it was little bit cold outside, but from the deck we could have a clear views of Shanghai on both backs of the river. The varied old classical western architecture on the west bank of the Huangpu River and the towering modern buildings on the east bank present a spectacular contrast, increasing the beauty and magnificence of the river. At the same time, with this tour we can also catch a glimpse of many other famous, important and magnificent buildings on the Bund.

Besides its itinerary, with this tour we also could enjoy the well serviced from our guides and driver. What a great trip that should not be regret!

I can't believed during a short time, my family and I, we were able to visit the ancient capital city of China, Xian from Beijing. First, this is not my first time visit Beijing so this time I would like to explore more outside Beijing and my choice is Xian which very famous for its Terracotta Warriors. Widely regarded as one of China's top three historical sites, the site was seriously amazing. I never doubt it the fact that Terracotta Army become very famous since I did visit the site by myself and discovered it. The feeling once you step inside the site will be seriously different. All of that you can experience it only by yourself.

Impressive Terracotta Warriors of Xian

By the way, apart from how magnificent Terracotta Warriors in Xian, here I would like to tell about some part of our memorable vacation. So, with this 3 days tour we could get round way flight tickets with all the accommodations when we were in Xian. Those accommodations including hotel, tour guide, private van, lunch, breakfast, transportation etc. Overall, the tour was really organized and went smoothly till the end. So arrived at Xian Airport, the staff picked us up from the airport and directly transferred us to our hotel in Xian which already arranged by our local travel agency.

Rich Performance of Xian Dynasty Show

Privately for me, booked the travel agency to arrange all our needs in China was a benefit. Since I don't really understand about China and the cities so I think it is better to join a tour, right. So many times travelled and everything went well, very efficient by booking the local tour. So, in Xian besides Terracotta Warriors for sure, we did also visit Great Mosque, Bell Tower, Big Goose Pagoda (an important Buddhist pagoda built during the Tang Dynasty), famous Ancient City Wall, etc. On the second night of the tour, we also could enjoy a rich and fabulous Xian Tang Dynasty Show. It is a wonderful performance of China ancient dance and music with stunning costumes and colorful settings. We did also enjoy authentic dumpling buffet while watching a Tang Dynasty Show, combining beautiful poetry, dance, music and stunning choreography and costumes to portray China's rich past. It is a must to see this show when come to Xian.

Overall, our experience during the tour was memorable and fun. So much new and nice things to see, to do and got lots of fresh experiences in China which were priceless! Thank you for the service.
