Four ways to see China
One licensed local team, four ways to travel — a fully planned private trip, a private one-city tour, a small group with fixed dates, or just a driver and a guide.
Not sure which one fits?
Most travelers start with a private custom trip — it covers the whole journey. The other three are there when you only need one piece of it.

Booking & payment
How booking works
You approve the plan before you pay anything — and every step is confirmed in writing.
Tell us the trip
1
Send us your dates, cities, group size and what matters to you. We come back with a draft itinerary and a clear, itemised price. This step is free and puts you under no obligation.
2
Approve & pay a deposit
Once the plan is exactly right, we send a short trip agreement and an itemised invoice. Drivers, guides and entrance tickets start with a 30% deposit. Hotels, flights and train tickets are paid in full when we book them, because those suppliers require it. Every line is listed before you pay.
3
Balance on arrival
The remaining balance for your drivers, guides and tickets is settled on the day you arrive — once your trip has actually started. Before you fly we send your final itinerary and every booking confirmation. Your coordinator schedules every pick-up and meeting point, and stays one message away while you travel.
