An unmissable group tour of China

13 nights from £3,290 per person based on 2 sharing

Experience two sides of China in one seamless itinerary. This trip takes you from the buzz of Shanghai’s ultra-modern skyline to the hushed solemnity of Xi’an’s Terracotta Warriors and along the Li River’s picturesque bends. Along the way, days are balanced: grand-scale sightseeing is softened with hands-on workshops, teahouse visits, tai chi in the countryside, and dinners filled with regional flavours. With experienced local guides, carefully selected four-star hotels, and all essential travel arrangements handled, this journey is designed for those seeking the essential highlights and the subtle moments that truly define the country.
  • Begin in Shanghai, a city known for its dynamic pace, panoramic river cruises, and that classic skyline along the Bund. Itineraries then turn inland, weaving tea plantations and cable car views in Guilin into a journey that connects both metropolis and rural calm.

  • Walk a dramatic stretch of the Great Wall for a true sense of scale and spend unhurried time among the Terracotta Warriors - enhanced by specialist guides who reveal their historical significance. A stop at a craftsman’s workshop demonstrates the skills behind these legendary figures.

  • The cruise between Guilin and Yangshuo offers ever-changing scenery, limestone peaks, and a window onto river life, all without hassle. You’ll get to join a Tai Chi session in Yangshuo, with free time to absorb the slower rhythm of the region and observe local routines.

  • Stays are arranged in well-located 4-star hotels, selected for their reliable service, spacious rooms, and excellent facilities, including pools, spas, and inviting restaurants. Well-paced logistics and practical transfers ensure each day flows smoothly from start to finish, so you can focus on enjoying the experience.
