May Evelyn· March 30th, 2025In general is a good experience. Is not luxury, but it gets better as you are movingShow more
G Adventures commented on this reviewThanks so much for your honest review, May! We hope to welcome you on another adventure in the near future!Trip date: March 2025- KLKara· January 22nd, 2025This tour was exactly what I expected. Yes, we did travel a lot, but saw so much in such a short amount of time. Ricky was so sweet! He looked after us so much and really got to know his group. And speaking of the group, the dynamics were perfect. Such a small team and this allowed us to get around all security checks swiftly and through all places visited. We stayed in some amazing accommodation which got better each place that we stayed. The itinerary was very clear, except for no mention about the second lengthy train journey. (Might need to fix this) A very inexpensive tour for what you got. Would highly recommend one of the options for seeing China with G Adventures!Show moreG Adventures commented on this reviewThanks so much for sharing your experience with us, Kara! We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your tour of China with Ricky and the group, and appreciate your feedback on updating the itinerary. Our world deserves more you!Trip date: January 2025
- MBMary Christina· December 15th, 2019Good value for money and the guide was on point. Would definitely use them again as an option for budget travel. China would likely have been difficult and beat and undoable without a tour (and I am a fairly a seasoned traveler)Show moreTrip date: November 2019
- Beth· November 29th, 2019The best things about this trip was our CEO, Jennifer. She was knowledgeable, helpful and gave a lot of great suggestions about foods to try, what we could do in our free time, etc. The accommodations and food were good for the price. The amount of time spent in transit and carrying around luggage was the main downside. The sleeper trains were also hard to get a good sleep on.Show moreTrip date: November 2019
- KKirsten· November 19th, 2019I thought that doing a tour would avoid busy times for sightseeing however it was the opposite. There was too many times you had to provide your own meals and it was long days. I would have done it on my own in hindsight. The tour guide was lovely and so helpfulShow moreTrip date: October 2019

Traveler•Written March 2025I would like to visit Guangzhou, would that be possible or should it be discussed separately with your company when we get to China?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written March 2025
We cannot customise our trips, they only operate as per the itinerary online, therefore this would not be possible. If you wish to visit Guangzhou we recommend that you add extra time after the tour to do this, but this will be something you must arrange yourself.

Asked on December 8th, 2024I would like to know if you partner with travel agencies in China for the purpose of securing a TE (invitation letter) for China visa application? For context, Nigerians are required to travel in groups of at least 5 and submit and invitation letter from an agency in China. Could you kindly confirm that you can provide an invitation letter once I book a tour. In the unlikely event that my visa is not granted, would I be eligible for a full refund of my booking fees?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written December 2024
Yes, we are able to help with the Letter of Invitation process needed for travellers to visit China. The specific requirements of your nationality can be accommodated, but you would also need to ensure you are following any procedures or requirements needed. We could not process a refund if a visa is denied. This would be done via a Trip Cancellation Insurance policy your travellers would need to purchase.
