Summary
Get to know Beijing, Xi’an and Shanghai through palace courtyards, ancient figures, neighbourhood lanes and the riverfront on an eight-day private trip. Every journey can be tailored to you.
Beijing introduces the people and rituals behind its grand imperial buildings, with time in the hutongs to see the city at neighbourhood scale. A high-speed train takes you to Xi’an, where the Terracotta Army and the streets of the Muslim Quarter tell different parts of the city’s story. In Shanghai, follow garden paths and the Huangpu riverfront to see old and new in the same day. Your guiding and transfers are private, and we can adjust the pace, meals and hotel style around your interests.
