★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2 reviews · 3 hours · from $98

“What a brilliant experience! The visit to the museum was fascinating and gave me a new appreciation for the sport. Afterwards, heading to a local club to play some games with my guide was the perfect way to cap it off. The guide was a great player and made the practice session a lot of fun. This is a must for anyone who wants to experience China's rich table tennis culture firsthand.”
