Chongqing
Welcome to Chongqing, China’s spectacular "Mountain City" and a global viral sensation! Experience its unique 3D layout and dazzling skyline, often called "Little Hong Kong." Savor authentic flavors in the world's hotpot capital and behold the majestic confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers—your gateway to the breathtaking Three Gorges.
Upon meeting you at the airport, station, or port, we’ll journey to Ciqikou Ancient Town, a 1,000-year-old living museum. Once a bustling porcelain hub, its Ming and Qing architecture and cobblestone paths offer a timeless escape. Wander through vibrant streets to discover traditional crafts, witness dramatic Sichuan opera face-changing shows, and savor local treats like crispy Mahua.
This afternoon, traverse the Three Gorges Museum to uncover over 280,000 historical relics. Discover the fascinating story of the Yangtze River, the formation of the gorges, and Chongqing’s dynamic evolution into a modern metropolis.
After your tour, capture stunning photos of the People’s Assembly Hall, an architectural masterpiece located just outside.
Later, witness Chongqing’s most thrilling spectacle at Liziba Metro Station. Watch in amazement as the Line 2 monorail glides directly through a residential skyscraper—a world-famous engineering marvel. This unique 3D urban experience offers an unforgettable glimpse into the mountain city’s creative and functional design.
Next, head to Hongya Cave along the Jialing River to view its famous traditional stilted buildings. Stroll the riverside promenade to take in the glowing skyline before navigating the multi-level wooden complex.

Asia Odyssey Travel was the first company to reply to my inquiry regarding a private 4 day tour to Huangshan. My wife and I were travelling to Chongqing and Chengdu with friends for 7 days and wanted to extend our time in China to see the famed Yellow Mountains.
I contacted AOT with a short list of places we wanted to visit, and Catherine Wang at AOT responded with an itinerary and price quote. After a little back and forth and a few tweaks, we were ready to go. I'm glad that we were able to upgrade our hotels in Huangshan City (Crowne Plaza) and on the mountain (Baiyun).
Our local guide, Gary, was knowledgeable about the history, culture, resources, economy, and everything else a tourist might ask about the places he showed us. He paced our hikes on the mountain to our ability and despite rain, showed us breathtaking landscapes. In the ancient villages of Xidi and Hongcun, we got a feel for life in the Ming and Qing dynasties and independent time to wander the back alleys where life continues in present day.
To sum up, AOT gave us a great experience from planning to pick up and departure.
We booked a tour with Asia Odyssey to Xian from 21st April to 27th April 2025. Our domestic flight from Guangzhou to Xian was cancelled a few times due to weather issues and it was a relief to us that our tour guide Lucky and our driver Mr Wang were there waiting for us. All of our tour guides and driver helped make our travel experience a smooth and memorable one. They were all very professional and personal at the same time. The guides explained each site well and were always mindful of our energy level during our travel journey. We were especially thankful to our driver, Mr Wang who was with us for the duration of our visit in Xian. Even though he could not communicate too well in English, we could tell how kind and professional he was. He always asked us if we needed snacks and made sure each of us had bottled water at every tourist stop. He really took great care of us, always so gracious and patient with our family members. Service with a Smile! There were times when we travelling without a guide, Mr Wang always gave us the assurance that he would be there waiting for us upon our return. On our return to Malaysia, Mr Wang took us to the luggage department so we could leave our bags there while we visited the Airport Museum. He even checked with the airport staff on our behalf regarding our check- in details. Last but not least, a big "Thank you" to our travel consultant, Catherine Wang who so patiently and professionally tailored this tour to suit us.

Overall, had an enjoyable trip, thanks to Catherine. She was very helpful responding to my questions, check in to see how I was doing during the trip, and responded quickly to an issue encountered during the trip. Thank you to Catherine, and the other tour guides and drivers, for their friendly and warm hospitality. For my next visit to the other cities in China, will reach out to Catherine again.
Found AOT online and took a chance to try their services. From the start, Catherine of AOT was spot on in assisting me & family in planning our 7 night stay in Beijing and Xian. The guides assigned to us in Beijing, Bruce and Wally were also great. Bruce took us to many nice local restaurant spots where the food was great and the prices reasonable. Jenny our guide in Xian was also super. All in all no regrets trusting and booking with AOT. Woul;d recommend and would also use their services again in future. Thank you again to all! We had a great time!
I will miss Xian. Miss Terracotta Warriors, Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, ancient wall...During my vacation in Xi'an, our guide Mary was amazing and cool. She always told us something new about modern Xi'an and its history. Renting a Hanfu at the Grand Tang Mall at night was great—the whole street lights up like a movie set!
Traveling with my parents and two energetic kids is usually a challenge, but this Zhangjiajie trip was actually... relaxing? Our guide was like a family member with thankful patient! We hit the Glass Bridge early to beat the altitude fear. It's rare to find a place that impresses a 70-year-old and a 7-year-old at the same time, but Zhangjiajie nailed it. My kids are already asking when we can go back!
We took a detour to Lao Sicheng and it was so hauntingly beautiful. It's a total vibe shift from the main park, peaceful, misty, and dripping with ancient Tujia culture. Walking through those mossy ruins felt like being in an Indiana Jones movie. Our guide was a fountain of knowledge, explaining the tribal kings and the Tusi system in a way that actually made sense.
Our family of seven from Singapore joined the 3 Days Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou High Speed Train Tour, and it was truly one of the best short trips we’ve ever taken together. The bullet train ride was fast, comfortable, and very convenient for a big group like ours. All transfers and hotel arrangements were smooth, which made traveling with children and elders completely stress-free.
Jiuzhaigou’s colorful lakes and waterfalls were even more beautiful than we imagined. Walking along the scenic paths felt peaceful and refreshing, and everyone found something to love. Our guide was patient and caring, always making sure our family was comfortable. This tour gave us unforgettable memories and was the perfect mix of nature, comfort, and family time.
This 10 Days Chengdu & Lhasa to Kathmandu Overland Tour via Qinghai-Tibet Railway was one of the most meaningful trips of my life. Traveling across such vast landscapes—from the green valleys of Sichuan to the high plateau of Tibet and finally into the Himalayas—felt like crossing into another world. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway itself was an unforgettable experience, offering breathtaking views and a smooth, comfortable ride into Lhasa.
Every detail of the journey was thoughtfully arranged, from permits to border crossings, which could have been very complicated without a professional team. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, especially in helping us adjust to the altitude. Standing in front of the Potala Palace, visiting ancient monasteries, and finally reaching Kathmandu felt like completing a once-in-a-lifetime journey. I am deeply grateful for the care and professionalism of the team. This tour is truly for travelers seeking adventure, culture, and a deeper connection to the world.
