Private tours in China, priced as you plan

The estimate is per person. It covers the ground service, an English-speaking guide and personal assistant from arrival to departure, hotels in twin-sharing rooms, planned meals, transport within China and attraction tickets, as set out in the itinerary. It does not cover international flights, travel insurance, personal shopping or upgrades to a higher specification than the one agreed.

No. A private tour has one per-person price that includes the hotels, transport and meals. A group tour for a school or a business group is charged as a per-person ground service fee, and its hotels, meals, transport and tickets are paid separately. The Tours and Prices page compares the two.

The guide, the planning and part of the transport are shared across the group, so the cost per person falls as the group grows. The table in each card changes as you change the number of travellers.

No. It is an estimate for a standard version of the route. PreeChina confirms the final price in writing after planning the route with you, and adds nothing you have not agreed to.

A single traveller is quoted by hand, and so are groups above thirty. Tibet, Qinghai, Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia have no standard version: those routes are customised, and the price shown is a starting point.

Group size, the number of nights, the hotel level, the class of rail seat on longer journeys, and how many cities the route crosses. Premium hotels and first-class or business-class rail seats raise it; the selectors above show by how much.

Send PreeChina the places, the dates and the group size through the contact page. Every route here is a starting point, and PreeChina changes the stops, the days and the pace to fit your group.
