About this trip
An 8-day private tour across three of China's biggest cities, built around the major historic sights but with room to slow down and take things in properly.
You'll cover Beijing's imperial past, the ancient walls of Xi'an, and Shanghai's busier, more modern streets, mixing famous landmarks with smaller hands-on moments like a rickshaw ride and a go at pottery making.
It's pitched as easy-going and family-friendly, with private arrangements and guiding laid on for the main stops rather than a packed group schedule.
