Guided Tour
The Journey
A tale of two capitals — ancient and electric.
Begin in Beijing, where emperors once walked vermillion halls and the Great Wall rolls into the mountains. Spend two nights at the heart of dynastic China — Tiananmen, Badaling, the Summer Palace and the lantern-lit hutongs.
Then board the G15 high-speed train south to Shanghai. Three nights in a city that hums with neon, jazz, soup dumplings and skyline. Drift through Zhujiajiao's stone bridges, then watch the Bund light up the Huangpu river.
