- Susan· July 17th, 2025Overall, the tour was well organized. There were a few details that could have been better communicated, like where to meet guides upon arrival and how long the wait could be for Tianamen Square. The Beijing hotel lacked charm, but the location and actual room was functional. The Xian hotel was charming in a 60’s sort of way, but very adequate. The Shanghai hotel was excellent for the final 2 nights.Show more
- Juergen· June 2nd, 2025Andy is a great tour guide.Show more
- Cindy· May 20th, 2025Jennifer of Top China Travel has been incredibly helpful and supportive right from the beginning to the end of our tour.

Asked on May 3rd, 2025Is there a way to get back from Shanghai to Beijing to fly back home? Instead of flying out of Shanghai? So we can book a round trip airplane ticket instead of 2 one ways?

Kim
Traveler•Written May 2025What is the weather / temperature like in November? Will we need winter clothes, boots etc.? Also I was told not to take medications to China. Is this correct? Do we need a converter for electricity for curling iron and so on?
- Top China TravelOperator•Written May 2025
The temperature in northern China like Beijing is a bit cold, it is recommended that you take some winter clothes. If you need to take medicines, you need the evidence from the doctor to prove that your medicine is for self-using. Generally speaking, converter is needed in China.

Traveler•Written March 2025The link is not attached. The visa application requires a Letter of Invitation, do you provide this? If I join the tour in May 2025, is there enough time to release the visa and join?
- Top China TravelOperator•Written April 2025
Normally it take one week working days to release the visa. Once you book this tour, I will send you a confirmation letter. Normally our client offer the confirmation letter to apply for China visa. And according to my experience, it is quite easy to get the China visa for Canadian travelers.
