A guided tour can show you all the hot spots and lesser known places that you might enjoy.
Lots of really amazing places to visit in China and lots to see including the Terracotta Army; Summer Palace; Potala Palace and even super fun water parks for kids and adults. Lots of really great restaurants and cafes there too, so you will never go hungry.
Good scenery, very natural countryside, if you would prefer a more serene vacation than one in the bustling cities.
