Planning your destinations.
A few quick answers before you start building your private journey.
Ask a Local PlannerWhich places are best for a first trip to China?
Beijing, Xi’an, Zhangjiajie and Shanghai create a strong first journey, combining imperial history, ancient culture, dramatic nature and modern city life. Chengdu can be added for pandas and a slower Sichuan rhythm.
How many days should I allow?
About 10–17 days works well for a multi-city first trip. With fewer days, it is usually better to choose one region rather than spend too much time transferring between cities.
Can I change the order or remove destinations?
Yes. Every journey is private and flexible. We can change the order, add rest days, upgrade hotels or replace any city according to your flights, interests and preferred pace.
How will we travel between cities?
We use the most practical combination of high-speed trains and domestic flights, with private transfers for stations, airports and local sightseeing. Your planner will minimize unnecessary backtracking.
