Travel Centre
Tailor-made China holidays from the Great Wall and Xi'an to the rivers and rice terraces of the south.
Explore China
China holds several countries inside one border. Beijing and the Great Wall, the terracotta ranks at Xi'an, the water towns near Suzhou, the karst rivers of Guangxi and the bamboo forests of Sichuan where the pandas live, all linked by one of the fastest railway networks in the world.
It rewards a good route more than almost anywhere. The right order of cities, the right high speed train, a guide who can open a hutong door, and time built in for tea houses and markets rather than only monuments.
Our China Travel Centre is opening shortly. Itineraries and hotels are being finalised with our team on the ground, and we are already taking enquiries for next season.

@pavithradilip
Excellent itinerary preparation and coordination. Helped with a smooth and relaxed travel experience.
@monica
5 stars from start to finish. Every step of our travel was thoughtfully planned and communication was excellent. Truly a five star experience.
@dorothyhughes
The hotels were chosen with such care, heritage properties we would never have found ourselves. Wonderful value for the quality.
@pauldempsey
When our flight was delayed, one phone call and everything was rearranged before we landed. That is real service.
