Points of entry
Many international airlines fly into Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, the itinerary can begin on almost any day of the week and at any of these entry points. Itineraries may run from north to south or vice versa or begin and end in the same city.
Duration
To derive maximum benefit from the distance travelled, the ideal duration is between 15-22 days, particularly for a tour, which encompasses several cities.
Itineraries, which included a trekking or overland element, visiting wildlife sanctuaries, or travelling to the Gobi Desert in North West China may need to be extended.
Accommodation
Accommodation will be based on twin-sharing throughout. Single rooms may be pre-booked. In the major cities and tourist centres there is now a wide range of accommodation available from basic to 5 Star. In smaller centres accommodation will be more basic.
Visas
A visa is required for entry to China. In most cases we will only require photocopies of your passport. The visa fee is subject to change and costs will be advised at time of booking. For individual travellers or groups of less than six, we will require your passport to obtain your visa.
Board Arrangements
We normally provide a fully inclusive package with full board and a comprehensive excursion programme. Sometimes additional excursions will be offered locally.
Group Sizes
