About this trip
A six-day private tour taking you from Beijing to Shanghai, built around China's history and culture rather than a packed sightseeing checklist.
With your own guide and driver throughout, the pace stays relaxed and the route flexible — good for families or anyone who'd rather not join a big group.
Accommodation, meals, transport and guiding are all arranged, so the trip runs smoothly from the moment you land in Beijing to your final day in Shanghai.
What you'll do
- Explore Beijing's historic and cultural sites with a private guide
- Travel by private transport between Beijing and Shanghai
- Discover Shanghai's blend of old streets and modern skyline
- Meals included throughout the six days
- Guided at your own pace rather than as part of a large group
- Private tour — guide, driver and schedule are yours alone, not shared with other travellers
- Easy pace, suited to families and those wanting a relaxed introduction to China
Worth it if you want expert guides and seamless logistics in 6 days. Think twice if you prefer a slower pace—you'll hit major sites fast.
- Guides Linda, Molly, and William were genuinely knowledgeable, spoke fluent English, and actively bypassed queues at popular attractions.
- Tour operator Thang provided exceptional support: managed documents, kept communication clear, and arranged emergency hospital care when needed.
- You'll cover Great Wall, Forbidden City, and Shanghai in just 6 days—intense itinerary means long travel days and early starts.
- Everything ran on schedule with drivers and guides consistently courteous; the company was genuinely responsive to unexpected situations.
