One of the best activities we tried when we were in Harbin. the bus transfers were ontime and really nice, while the Volga Manor is so out-of-a-book fantasy place where various activities are also available. it was a wonderful experience to see the fusion of Chinese and Russian culture in one place.

Must visit for your trip to Harbin. Solemn and extremely painfil part of history to learn about. Tour was in Chinese. The guide was a young and promising man who seems to be a doctorate fellow from Heilongjiang province. He explained each exhibit and the main point of the lessons to be learnt very pointedly and efficiently. We learnt a lot from him as he aimed to share his knowledge base in the most objective manner possible.

Here’s a polished, warm version while keeping your original sentiment: We chose Yabuli Sun Mountain Ski Resort and it was fantastic. We missed our train, but Jiajia kindly allowed us to reschedule and ski the next day without any issues at all. The entire team was wonderful — from picking us up at the train station, assisting with ski rentals, guiding us at the resort, and ensuring a smooth return. Jiajia’s sister was amazing too; she brought us for snowmobiling and horse sledding before sending us back to the train station. Truly worth the trip.

A Wonderful Winter Holiday in Harbin taking in not one but three amazing sights! Cinderella's English was easy to understand. She helped me appreciate what I was seeing. She knows each venu and makes suggestions so you don't miss an opportunity. She's also just fun to be with. My trip was so much richer because of her guidance. So glad we experienced St. Sophia's, Sun Island and the Siberian Tiger Sanctuary together! Thank you!

A perfect autumn day trip in Harbin! In the morning, St. Sophia Cathedral is stunning, with yellow leaves accentuating its Byzantine green domes and pigeons circling above – every snapshot is postcard-worthy. Stepping inside, the sunlight streaming through the stained-glass windows is breathtaking. In the afternoon, stroll along Central Street, feeling the history beneath your feet on the cobblestone pavement, with a gentle autumn breeze on your face. Don't miss the iconic Madier ice cream, so creamy and rich! And grab a Qiulin sausage with Kvass – the perfect combo. The European-style buildings lining the street are incredibly romantic under the golden plane trees. This itinerary perfectly combines Harbin's exotic charm with the romance of autumn. The pace is relaxed and unhurried, making for a truly fulfilling experience! Highly recommend it to anyone visiting in the fall.

A huge thank you to Sally for the customized itinerary recommendation! The Changbai Mountain trip left me amazed! The majestic peaks were covered in white snow, resembling a wonderland. I customized a private itinerary, from relaxing in the hot springs to snow hiking, which made for a unique experience. The local guides were professional and enthusiastic, taking us to explore hidden spots and taste authentic cuisine. The accommodation was comfortable and cozy, with attentive service. This trip not only allowed me to appreciate the natural wonders but also feel the cultural charm. Highly recommended for friends seeking personalized adventures! Changbai Mountain, an unforgettable experience!

Interesting concept with traditional street games and the imperial banquet is great, dining with the emperor and empress. it is indeed a royal banquet.
