We took an Olivia Cruise and tour with the Viking cruise lines and had a great time. Great activities and tour guides were awesome. Not only was the personal guide that stayed with us the entire trip and the local guides were very knowledgeable and helpful. The shore excursions were with the local guides were really well organized. Excellent service at airport transfers and the hotel were fabulous. This was one of the best tours that I have ever taken. The scenery is spectacular and the history is unbelievable. It is the only way to see China. Favorites sites we saw were the Forbidden City, the Terra Cotta Warriors, the Bund at Shanghai, the caves of Guilin, and the Giant Pandas at the zoo in ChongGong. A special feature of this tour was the visit to the elementary school and having the ability to interact with the children in a first grade class.
