What our travellers say
Real stories from real explorers who discovered China with us.
We were nervous about travelling to China for the first time, but Mandarin Discoveries made everything effortless. The guides felt like old friends, and watching the sunrise over the Great Wall with no crowds was magical. We have already booked our return trip.

De reis was perfect georganiseerd van begin tot eind. De panda's in Chengdu waren natuurlijk fantastisch, maar de verborgen dorpen in Yangshuo verrasten ons het meest. Echte lokale ervaringen, geen toeristenval. Aanrader!

Die Seidenstraße war ein Traum, den ich seit Jahren hatte. Das Team hat jede Unterkunft, jeden Guide und jeden Transfer mit so viel Liebe zum Detail ausgewählt. Die Wüstennächte unter dem Sternenhimmel werde ich nie vergessen.
