Private charter in China

Our China itineraries are drawn from GO CHINA, our Chinese-language charter brand covering 25 regions from Beijing and Shanghai to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Xiamen and the Greater Bay Area.

China rewards travellers who leave the main cities, and that is exactly where a private charter shines: scenic drives through Guizhou, coastal loops in Shandong, or a relaxed Beijing-Chengde-Tianjin circuit with no transfers to worry about.
