  This was one of the best trips I have done, very varied, we were able to learn and see so much about China. The word "magical" fits our trip perfectly. "Anna" our tour guide has been nicknamed "Anna-pedia" by Wikipedia. She was professional, super organized, she told us a lot about the history, traditions, current life and much more. She always kept an eye on our group and nobody got lost. It's rare to have a tour guide who simply thinks of everything. The trip enchanted us, the accommodation was TOP, the food was very good. It's a shame that the time passed so quickly. Best wishes to China and to our Anna.Show more

  Very good value for money for our round trip "Magical China" from 25.02. - 15.03.26; we received information from Bavaria in advance on the topics we were interested in. The trip itself was very well organized, the rather tight program was full of highlights and interesting information, for which we are especially grateful to our tour guide "Uwe". The accommodation was of a good standard. We would have liked a little more impressions outside the "tourist trails".Show more

  We had a wonderful trip. It was very exhausting and we had to get up early every day, but it was always worth it. So many highlights. Very well organized. Everything worked out. I just wish I had known beforehand that cash is important for optional excursions and tips.Show more

  Our group tour Enchanting China was the first group tour for us. With 33 participants, it was well booked and we were a little skeptical. At the end of the trip, we can only conclude that it was absolutely magical. In addition to the great tour group, the prudent and super-structured tour guide contributed significantly to the success of the trip. We had thought that the tour operator would cut corners due to the price of the overall package and had expected simple hotels. But here, too, we were very pleasantly surprised. According to the tour operator, the trip is not suitable for people with walking difficulties. This advice should be taken seriously. The day is packed with activities and involves a lot of walking (15-20000 steps a day, up and down stairs). Only the days of the river cruise are more relaxed. If you take this into account, you will be rewarded with an infinite number of impressions. Whether it's cities with millions of inhabitants, ancient China, monasteries or nature, there are still many impressions to process after the trip. It is advisable to buy and set up an e- Sim with unlimited volume before the trip. You should also install Alipay and WeChat in advance. You don't necessarily need someone who is already on WeChat to install WeChat. We were able to install it using our Facebook account. Contrary to what is often described, you do need cash. All tips, optional excursions and drinks at dinner are paid in cash. Please avoid liquids over 100 ml (even in your suitcase). What is not a problem on flights is a problem when traveling by train. Travelers are allowed to have many 100 ml bottles, but no larger ones. This applies to perfume, hair care and deodorants. If you are lucky, it will pass inspection, but it is possible that the expensive perfume will then be rejected...it doesn't matter how much is in the bottle, the size of the bottle is decisive. Anyone thinking of getting a first impression of China will not be disappointed by this well-planned and structured trip. From our point of view, the price-performance ratio of this trip is unbeatable. It was certainly not our last trip with Bavaria Fernreisen. Jörg and Kerstin in September 24Show more

  I had been planning to visit China for some time and searched for a long time before deciding on this trip. It had exciting destinations and promised to give me a good first impression of the country. Now that I've been home for two days, I have to sort everything out. My impressions: The country is gigantic, diverse and left a deep impression on me. The route was very well chosen and the destinations were both urban, rural and historical. A country with thousands of years of tradition and a culture that can also give us a lot. What was particularly interesting for me was how a country manages to transform itself from an agricultural country into a highly developed industrial country within 40 years, how the people are taken along. And that is interesting. To live, you need a cell phone and possibly a passport, or a passport for tourists. You can use it to pay for anything and get in anywhere. With AliPay and Wepay, you can pay for anything, whether at a vending machine, a street vendor or in stores, etc. Interesting for me, but also a technical development. And I have to say, the trip opened my eyes. Here you realize where we are. In Beijing or Xi'an, it feels like 70% e-cars, 50% e-buses and almost 100% mopeds, cabs and vans are electric. This is how electromobility works and it benefits the city air. But you also see a lot more e-mobiles in rural areas than here. Not to mention thousands of rental bikes everywhere on the roadsides (neatly, not like in Berlin) and in traffic, where they have their own lanes. Particular highlights were the rice terraces, Phoenix, Fenghuang with its historic old town, but also the Great Wall of China or the TerracottaShow more

  Diese Reise trägt mit Recht den Namen "Magic China". Die Eindrücke sind kaum in Worte zu fassen. Die Tempel und Pagoden in mitten riesiger moderner Metropolen, im Gegensatz dazu das ländliche einfache Leben, die leuchtenden Orte am Abend sind einfach faszinierend und teilweise unbeschreibbar. Auch die Fahrten auf dem Yangtze und Li Fluss in Mitten dieser unfassbaren Landschaften sind einfach Grandios. Dieses Land hat soviel zu bieten und wird uns für immer in Erinnerung bleiben. Aber es ist nicht alles Gold was glänzt: Diese Reise war sehr organisiert und durchgeplant, manchmal etwas zu sehr. Es gab so einige Orte an denen man gerne mehr Zeit verbringen hätte wollen z.B. auf der großen Mauer, leider hat es nur einer aus unserer Gruppe bis ganz nach oben geschafft, alle anderen mussten auf halben Weg umkehren da die Fahrt schon wieder weiter ging. Auch für Shanghai war die Zeit viel zu kurz, diese faszinierende Mega Stadt hätte viel mehr Zeit verdient. Dafür verbrachte man Stunden in einer Seiden Fabrik, wobei die Herstellung im Spurt erklärt wurde bevor man in die Verkaufsräume kam und dort die Zeit plötzlich ohne Ende stillstand. Aber das hat unsere Meinung über das faszinierende China nicht wirklich beeinflusst. Zum Schluss noch eine Sache die die Stimmung doch das eine oder andere Mal getrübt hat. Uns wurde von Anfang an erklärt das Trinkgelder im Taxi, Gaststätten und Geschäften nicht erwünscht sind. Nur der Busfahrer, die Reisebegleitung und die Reiseleiterin leben von den Trinkgeldern. So wurde genau erklärt was jeder für die jeweilige Dienstleistung zu geben hat und das Geld sofort, stellenwiese penetrant eingetrieben. Auch das die Reiseführerin von jedem Gast pro Tag 30 Yuan zu bekommen hat war schon am ersten Tag Thema. Wir sind davon ausgegangen, dass die Reiseleiterin vom Veranstalter bezahlt wird und nicht von uns vor Ort, den die Summe an diesen Trinkgeldern liegt bei über 1600 €. Das für drei Wochen, plus Ihren eigentlichen Lohn und die Sonderfahrten die noch verkauft wurden ist selbst für deutsche Verhältnisse nicht schlecht. Auch wenn beim lesen der Eindruck entstehen könnte das, dass Negativ überwiegt, dem ist nicht so! schlechtes lässt sich nur einfacher Ausdrücken als die beeindruckenden Erlebnisse vor Ort. Darum würden wir diese Reise so wie hier beschrieben auch immer weiterempfehlen. Unsere Eindrücke bleiben uns erhalten.Show more

  This trip is rightly called "Magic China". The impressions can hardly be put into words. The temples and pagodas in the middle of huge modern metropolises, in contrast to the simple rural life, the glowing places in the evening are simply fascinating and sometimes indescribable. Just like the trips on the Yangtze or Li River through the incredible landscapes and gorges. This country has so much to offer and will remain in our memories forever. But all that glitters is not gold: this trip was very organized and well-planned, sometimes a little too much so. There were some places where we would have liked to spend more time, e.g. the Great Wall, only one of our group made it all the way to the top, unfortunately everyone else had to turn back halfway because the journey was already continuing. The time in Shanghai was also far too short, this fascinating city deserved a lot more time. Instead, we spent hours in a silk factory, where the production process was explained in spurts before we went into the sales rooms, where we suddenly had endless time. But that didn't dampen our enthusiasm for this countryShow more
