As a visitor on the Shanghai-Beijing 7 Days High-Speed Train Tour offered by CHINAPRIVATETOUR, I have to say that it was an amazing experience. The tour was well-planned and executed, and I got to see some of the most famous and iconic landmarks in China.

The tour started in Shanghai, and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We visited the Bund, which is a must-see attraction in Shanghai. The view of the skyline from the Bund was breathtaking. We also visited the Yuyuan Garden, which is a traditional Chinese garden with beautiful landscapes and buildings.

Next, we took a high-speed train to Beijing, and the journey was comfortable and convenient. In Beijing, we visited the Forbidden City, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a must-visit attraction in China. The palace complex is huge, and our guide was very informative, telling us the history and significance of the various buildings and structures within the complex.

We also visited the Great Wall of China, which was an incredible experience. The wall stretches for thousands of miles and is a testament to the ingenuity and engineering skills of the ancient Chinese people.

Overall, the tour was well worth it, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see the best of Shanghai and Beijing. The high-speed train was a great way to travel between the two cities, and our tour guide made the whole experience very enjoyable. If you're planning a trip to China, this tour is a great way to see the highlights of these two incredible cities.

First, let me express how much I enjoyed my vacation. Their planning and thoughtfulness truly made my journey to China a memorable treasure that I will often remember fondly. I especially want to thank my tour consultants for their time, hard work, dedication, expertise and kindness, which made my journey both delightful and pleasurable. Secondly, let me assure that a very important reason for me choosing China Private Tour was, because they offer small group tours. I personally don't like to travel with large groups. I think this is a very strong selling point, which sets their company apart from other tour business groups and I know many people will be willing to take advantage of small group option. Also, I believe the guides finds the small groups more to their preference because, they can establish a greater, stronger customer relationship.

Beijing Guide: John

John was very prompt in meeting us at the designated times at our hotel and very knowledgeable in the history and government of the places we visited and China as a whole. He had very good English, and was the best English-speaker of our four tour guides. John had a very good sense of humor and was easy to talk to. He gave us plenty of free time to do things on our own, which we liked and was very flexible with the day's touring schedule. He even gave us options at the beginning of each day for us to plan our own itinerary. The city of Beijing was a great place for us to start our vacation. The Great Wall was beautiful, but perhaps we should have arrived earlier to avoid the throngs of tourists who arrive in the late morning.

Shanghai

We did not hire a tour guide for Shanghai, but it was easy to get around with taxis. The hotel they booked for us was wonderful. It was in a very convenience location for shopping and sightseeing, and the hotel has the best food among all the hotels we had stayed in. Chinese language music CDs in Shanghai were very inexpensive and my son brought several.

We would very definitely recommend this company to any of our friends who might be planning a trip to China in the future.

I have the pleasure of working with My Sam from China Private Tour in booking a trip to China. Though I have not yet embarked on this trip, I need to tell how impressive his work dedication and attention to details are. While booking our trip to China, myself and my wife had numerous questions and we bombarded Sam with many e-mails and he tirelessly answered them all to our satisfaction and he helped us a lot in developing our itinerary. One sample point about his dedication. He is very courteous, knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. I have worked with numerous travel agents in the past in my life but I can say without any hesitation, Sam is absolutely the best. Based purely on my interaction with Sam, I would recommend China Private Tour to my friends and relatives.
