An Unforgettable Chongqing Experience with Lesley
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Chongging with my girlfriend, and I must say our experience was truly unforgettable. Thanks in large part to our exceptional tour guide, Lesley. From the outset, we had some concerns about navigating a city that was entirely new to us. However, Lesley's patience and extensive knowledge made all the difference. She provided us with in-depth assistance that not only eased our worries but also enriched our understanding of the local culture and attractions. We explored numerous spots, and each location was more impressive than the last, showcasing Chongqing's unique landscape. If you would like a Chongqing experience guided by locals themselves, I highly recommend it.

An unforgettable experience with the Chinese Explorer Tour
Our guide Sophia was warm, friendly and knowledgeable and we had a fantastic time with her. We learned a lot about local history and ancient China. The local lunch of biangbiang noodles and roujiamo was delicious! The service from the China Explorer Tour was excellent - very responsive and helpful. The tour was a perfect blend of history, food and culture. I highly recommend this China tour agency for your next China adventure!

Guizhou: China's Hidden Gems
Our trip to Guizhou was an mind-blowing! I have always been fascinated by this region and Yunnan and this trip exceeded my expectations. Our guide, Jacky, was one of the best I've ever encountered, he was like a friend, showing us around his hometown and introducing us to the local culture and cuisine. I was amazed at how few tourists were around and how well Jacky connected with the locals. It was a truly authentic cultural experience. The stunning scenery of Guizhou feels like a huge national park. Although Guizhou is not well known, it is a hidden treasure that is worth exploring on your tours of China.

China is a vast land, which owns a great amount of tourism resources. It is very suitable for first-time travellers. According to our China tour agency, we recommend four destinations, including Beijing, Xi’an, Shanghai and Chengdu.
Beijing is a must-visit for its rich cultural heritage, featuring iconic views like the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. Xi’an is famous for the Terracotta Army and ancient capital.
Shanghai blends modern and traditional styles vibrantly, reflecting China’s rapid development. Finally, Chengdu is known for Panda and delicious Sichuan cuisine.
Our seasonal featured tours allow you to experience some of China’s most unique attractions, from spring blossoms to leafy mountains, tailored to the time of your visit.
No matter how many times you have eaten Chinese food outside, it can not compare with the authentic Chinese food you eat in a Chinese restaurant. Here we will share two kinds of delicious food you can eat during your vacation tour in China.
- Dumplings
Dumplings are a very popular traditional Chinese dish, especially in the northern regions. It’s made of dough that wraps around different fillings, such as pork, shrimp, and chives. Dumplings can be steamed, boiled or fried and are usually eaten with soy sauce and vinegar. Dumplings are a must-try when travelling to China, and many China tours include a dumpling tasting.
- PekingDuck
Peking Duck is a very famous Chinese dish with crispy skin and tender meat. The duck is often sliced thinly and wrapped in a pancake with seafood sauce and vegetables. Many vacation tours in China recommend tourists to try the authentic Peking duck, which is a highlight of the tour to China.
- Hairy Crab
Hairy crabs are a delicacy in Shanghai and are very popular, especially in autumn, and should not be missed on your tour to China. High-quality hairy crabs have tasty meat and rich crab yolk. The main ways to prepare hairy crabs are usually steaming and stir-frying, both of which are delicious!
The local currency is the Chinese Yuan (CNY/RMB). Credit cards are accepted in many hotels and shopping malls, but cash or mobile payments (like Alipay or WeChat Pay) are commonly used, especially in smaller businesses.
Direct access to Facebook and Google Map is not available in mainland China. Using a VPN is a common workaround, but it’s essential to be aware of the legal implications and potential risks involved.
However, using RORO eSIM, you can access Facebook, Google Maps, WhatsApp, and other commonly restricted apps in China without the need for a VPN.
Use our exclusive discount code (CETRORO) when purchasing a RORO data plan to enjoy special savings on your connectivity needs.
WIFI is available in hotels. However, sometimes the signal might not be strong. It is recommended to have roaming on or obtain a sim/esim.
We recommend purchasing from our trusted partner, RORO, where you can enjoy an exclusive discount as a China Explorer Tour customer. Use the discount code CETRORO when placing your order.
