    We just wrapped up the 15-day Golden Ring of China with Hong Kong tour, and wow – what an unforgettable experience! From the moment we landed in Beijing, everything was seamless. Our private guide and driver were fantastic – super knowledgeable, friendly, and always on time. Highlights included exploring the Forbidden City, hiking the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall (a must-do!), and marveling at the Terracotta Army in Xi'an. The Yangtze River cruise was a peaceful break, and Hong Kong's skyline at night was just breathtaking. The best part? The tour was fully customizable. We could skip or add activities based on our family's interests, which made the trip feel personal and stress-free. All our hotel stays were upgraded to 5-star accommodations, just as we requested.Highly recommend it!

    China is huge—so many places to see and explore Lucky for us, we found UME Travel! Phoebe, our trip designer, planned out the most amazing itinerary based on our days, budget, and preferences. Everything was perfectly organized In each city, the local guides were super responsible and always punctual—picking us up right at our hotel and making sure the whole day went smoothly It made traveling feel so easy and stress-free! And the food… oh my gosh Every day was a new foodie adventure. From endless street snacks to regional specialties—Guilin’s famous beer fish and Shanghai’s juicy pan-fried buns were definitely our favorites Honestly, it was such an incredible trip. Can’t wait to come back and explore even more of China!
