Dear Gower, Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad the contrast between Beijing’s rich history and Shanghai’s modern energy made your six-day journey even more interesting. It’s wonderful to hear that both cities brought something unique to the trip. We hope to welcome you back to explore more of China with us in the future! Sincerely, Vietnam Tour Fum team

This 6-day journey from the historic heart of Beijing to the futuristic skyline of Shanghai was an incredible whirlwind of culture and modernity. I was personally awestruck by the sheer scale of the Mutianyu Great Wall and the timeless beauty of the Forbidden City, but strolling along The Bund at sunset to see Shanghai's neon lights was the perfect contemporary contrast. The mix of ancient landmarks and bustling urban energy made every day feel like a new discovery, and the high-speed connection between the two cities was remarkably smooth. It’s the ultimate experience for anyone wanting to see China’s iconic highlights in a short but deeply rewarding timeframe.Show more

We had a wonderful time on our trip in Beijing and Shanghai. Everything was great organized, comfortable and interesting. Our guides, especially in Beijing, were friendly, knowledgeable, engaging and took care of everything so we could sit back and enjoy. The hotels were a little older, but offered everything we needed. During the whole time we always had a competent contact person at Vietnam Tour Fun to help us. Many thanks for a wonderful trip.Show more
