China Panda Tour: Luxury Small Group & High-quality Hotels, All Inclusive

Beijing → Shanghai 11 days Up to 18

About this trip

An 11-day tour of China built around comfort and a small group, with well-located luxury hotels and no forced shopping stops along the way.

Beyond the usual sights, you get a couple of local touches — a visit to a Chinese family's home and evenings out for an acrobatic show and a dance performance — alongside a more considered approach to food, with a la carte dining rather than set group meals throughout.

It's a fully guided trip pitched at comfort and culture rather than roughing it, and it works for families as well as groups of friends.

What you'll do

  • Watch a Chinese acrobatic show
  • Take in a dance performance
  • Visit a local Chinese family at home
  • Stay in well-located luxury hotels throughout
  • Eat a la carte rather than fixed set menus
Good to know
  • Small groups of 2-18 people with guaranteed departures
  • No shopping stops built into the itinerary
  • Geared towards comfort and culture, suits families and groups alike
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want hassle-free access to China's big hitters with quality guides and hotels. Think twice if early starts, packed days, and surprise cash requests wind you up.

  • Standout guides like Candy and Linda genuinely elevate the experience, handling groups with care and cultural knowledge.
  • Early morning starts and relentless pace leave travellers needing a holiday to recover; one guest felt exhausted.
  • Hidden costs bite: tips, some meals, and local cash demands weren't fully included despite 'all inclusive' label.
  • Arrival days in Chengdu and Shanghai have no scheduled activities; silk factory stop considered filler by some.
