Best China Tour: Six Memorable Days in Northeast China

It really was a wonderful six-day tour. As an Irish family, we also did not require a visa as our stay was 144 hours. When we arrived, we were greeted by Pat and his team who were very professional throughout the whole tour. We got to see many historical sites such as the Imperial Palace and the Great Wall. The Chinese language and TCM experience was a real cultural and healing experience. The hotels were lovely and it was great to try Northeastern Cuisine. The main issue was the locals' low level of English proficiency but with expert tour guides and translators, this did not represent a major barrier.

My family and I were glad to meet Pat and his team. I can see that he has put much effort into the tour. We got to see the Great Wall Hushan Section and really enjoyed the holistic Chinese medicine experience. The kids enjoyed learning Chinese, not sure, if I will be able to master it at my age. Also enjoyed the guided tours of imperial palace and the tombs. We also got to experience some great cuisine including hotpot and the best of Beijing Duck albeit in the Northeast. Overall, an excellent experience. Best of all, we were able to enter Shenyang visa free as the whole tour was less than 144 hours.
