China Tours & Coach Touring Holidays

View all our current escorted coach tours & touring holidays in China.

“Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.” - Confucius

China is a magical land with a matchless history and the potential for an extraordinary future. Our tours will show you more in an extended fortnight than many people will discover in a lifetime of travel. Let's begin with Beijing, a veritable treasure trove of ancient and modern Chinese history. You'll visit the palaces of the Ming and Qing emperors in the Forbidden City, experience the enormous scale of mighty Tiananamen Square as well as the exquisite architecture of the Summer Palace.

Later in the tour you'll be able to contrast historic Beijing with the frenetic, consumer-focused powerhouse that is Shanghai where, amongst the sleek new skyscrapers, you can still find tranquillity in the intricate and beautiful Yuyuan Gardens.

Talking of tranquillity, your cruise along the Yangtze will evoke the timeless images of traditional Chinese art and poetry while Xian, the ancient former capital, is your gateway to the Silk Road and the magnificent tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi guarded by 6,000 life-size terracotta warriors. Of course, no tour of China would be complete without a trip to The Great Wall, built by the Ming Dynasty to keep out the self same invaders who later went on to establish the Quing dynasty and, allegedly, the only man-made structure that's visible from space.

If you want to break your home from China then we can offer a super stopover in Hong Kong.
