    Can you arrange a customized private tour package for 2 Adults, 4 Children, 1 Infant (6 months old) for approximately 15 days? We prefer high-speed trains where possible, 3-4 star hotels with daily breakfast included, and family-friendly pacing.

    At G Adventures, we specialize primarily in small-group tours. For private travel, we are able to arrange customized departures for groups of 8 or more travellers on a single booking. For our family tours, we also have a minimum age requirement of 6 years old, which means we would not be able to accommodate an infant on our itineraries.

  Asked on January 8th, 2026

  Will we be touring with our luggage a lot? Like will we be rolling our luggage around at the sights and attractions? On the 5 hour train ride can we request a bed or reclining style seat or does that come with it? Same with the high speed train. Are the private airconditioned transportation for our group only? Are laundry rooms or laundry service available at any of the hotels? Are hairdryers provided in the hotels? It shows that I can request my own room for an additional cost just want to make sure that is correct.

    Is there a guaranteed departure? What if travel advisories turn to red and it is suggested we do not travel to China prior to our departure per gov.com? What is the refund policy if this happens and I guess what is refund policy in general?

  Asked on September 28th, 2025

  Is there an option to add visits to the Summer Palace and Temple of Heaven? Are there opportunities to enjoy cultural performances like ballet or martial arts shows during the trip, or can the guide recommend places to experience these? Could you tell me about the typical group composition—more women, men, or couples? Also, are there social activities or chances to connect with other travelers outside of sightseeing?

    G AdventuresOperator•Written September 2025

    For those tours the group will visit the forbidden city, in the Summer time since the forbidden city is usually over booked the groups visits the Summer Palace and the Temple of Heaven instead. You do get to see a Chinese acrobats show on day 7, and there is an optional activity to see Bell and Drum Towers performance on day 4. Anything else can be done during your free time and the guide can help book those on tour. For the December 5 departure we have 11 people confirmed on the tour, 5 are solo travellers, 1 pair and one group of 4. A little over half are male travellers. The group will be together for most of the tour except during free time but usually people will pair off if they want to see the same things.

    Traveler•Written October 2025

    If for some reason a client were unable to obtain the visa, what would the refund or reschedule options be?
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written October 2025

    It would depend on the proximity to the tour start date, essentially as the visa outcome is not our responsibility, if you were unable to get on your standard terms and conditions would apply if you had to cancel. That being said, you can amend your booking up to 30 days before departure, so as long as you do that outside of that time, you shouldn't be impacted too much if your visa was denied.
