5.00This experience was very fun. We enjoyed taking the train and walking along the wall. It was quite hot and humid so remember to bring sunblock! We enjoyed hearing all of the history of the area from our guide, Andrew. I appreciated how he customized our dining options to accommodate my husband’s dietary restrictions.
Wonderful day trip from Shanghai to Linhai!

5.00Summer, our guide was so friendly, warm and knowledgeable. She handled every detail of our day trip perfectly! This was a great day trip from the bustling city of Shanghai to the more laid back, quiet beautiful city of Linhai. The city has its own Great Wall and is set in a picturesque landscape of mountains and a large river. There is also a beautiful lake with so much to see. We traveled by bullet train there and back (2 hours and 3 hours), which was comfortable and enjoyable. We had a local Chinese lunch of crab noodles and pork meatballs which were both delicious. We saw a local theater show which was in a small group and quite entertaining. Then we walked the streets of the old town which is rich in history, architecture and culture with lots of great shops to buy souvenirs and try local food and drinks. If you have a full day to explore another city other than Shanghai, we highly recommend this well planned day trip to Linhai.
Excellent tour

She ensured I knew what was happening from start to finish and was very knowledgeable along the way 😁. Lake, Southern Great Wall are both stunning and I loved the show at the end. Fab day out made all the better by best guide

5.00This was an excellent well organised tour throughout. Summer our guide was very friendly and full of interesting information. She also coped very well with the challenge presented by my limited mobility, i use a 4-wheeled walking aid. The pace was adjusted to meet my needs and we were able to complete the full tour. My daughter and I really enjoyed the whole experience including a tasty lunch. We recommend this trip.
AMAZING experience!! Ask for Jenny!

5.00Absolutely incredible! I can’t say enough great things about Jenny, our guide. She communicated the itinerary and made sure we were prepared for our adventure the night before by telling us what to bring, wear for the temperature etc…. She was prompt and met us at our hotel exactly when she said she would. She arranged all of our transportation with ease and even walked us to our seats on the bullet train! She was very knowledgeable and shared relevant historical information. We enjoyed her conversation and company. She looked out for us, kept us on time and helped us purchase items on Ziyang Old Street. We would tour with her anywhere, any day! 10/10 would recommend!
