The trip begins with urban and cultural experiences, gradually transitioning into a more active, nature-focused adventure toward the end of the trip. Throughout mainland China, all travel will be done using modern high-speed trains, ensuring comfort, efficiency, and a smooth travel experience. We will start in Hong Kong, exploring its vibrant city life, skyline, markets, and cultural contrasts. From there, we’ll take a day trip to Macao, known for its unique blend of Portuguese and Chinese heritage, historic streets, and iconic landmarks. Afterward, we’ll continue to Shanghai, where we’ll experience one of China’s most dynamic cities—famous for its futuristic skyline, historic neighborhoods, and rich cultural scene. Following Shanghai, the trip shifts into a nature and adventure phase. We’ll travel to the breathtaking landscapes of Zhangjiajie, home to the famous Avatar Forest, with its towering sandstone pillars and dramatic scenery. The journey will culminate in a physical yet rewarding challenge: climbing the world’s longest stairway up a mountain, offering unforgettable views and a true sense of achievement. This balanced itinerary combines city exploration, cultural discovery, and immersive natural experiences for a diverse and memorable travel adventure.
I am easy going and am happy to spend evenings together in local bars and exploring various food options. Although I will be your guide during the trip, I value freetime for everyone to explore the places one one's own.
I value high quality and clean accommodation (platform rating at least 8,5/10). While on longer city stays, a bit more luxurious, I will also book more standard accommodation if we are doing sportive activities as it is not as much necessary as if you spend loads of time inside the hotel. You will have the option to chose from single / shared accommodation. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!
