“I only had 3 days in Shanghai on a stopover, but CTS packed in so much. The Bund at night, a garden tour in Suzhou, and the best xiaolongbao I have ever tasted.”

“Turned a boring layover into a Great Wall adventure. CTS arranged everything — hotel pickup at 5am, sunrise at the Wall, and back to the airport in time for our evening flight.”
Sam Whitmore

“Perfect introduction to China. Two days in Shanghai gave me a taste that now has me booking a full Discovery tour for next year. Exactly what a stopover should be.”
