Tour Highlights

  • Hotel pickup from Shenzhen — comfortable door-to-door experience
  • Explore 600-year-old Dapeng Fortress and its dramatic Opium War history
  • Walk the Xichong coastal cliff trail — rated by National Geographic

  • Learn about the First Opium War and General Lai Enjue
  • Visit ancient temples and traditional Hakka architecture

“Most people come to Shenzhen for the tech. Dapeng is where I show them the soul of this place — a 600-year-old fortress that defended China's coast, then a cliff trail that makes you forget you're in a city of 18 million.”

“We almost skipped Dapeng for another tech tour. So glad we didn't — walking through the fortress and hearing the Opium War stories gave us a completely different perspective on China. The cliff trail views were unreal.”
