You've read the guides. If you'd rather have the trip built for you — day by day, with the hotels that will actually take your passport and the trains timed to the minute — that's the job. Tell us about your trip and you'll get a clear quote within 48 hours. Nothing is charged until you say yes.
What happens after you hit send is stated before you commit — what you get, how fast, and what it costs.
Who's coming, how long, the vibe, feet or wheels, what you're into, your email. No card, no account, no "we'll call you."
An itemised number based on your actual trip — days, cities, group size, how much ground you want handled. Never a guess up front, and it doesn't move once you're invested.
The full blueprint lands day by day. And if you want the bookings done too — transfers, drivers, tours, tickets — we handle those as well.
Pick the level of hand-holding you want. Every plan is built around your answers — nothing off a shelf.
This is a real excerpt from a sample blueprint — Guangzhou, arrival day (Day 1 of 9). The green lines are the reasoning behind each decision: the part most itineraries leave out.
Notice the first block. We don't just tell you how to get from the airport — we're already there.
You walk out of arrivals and a licensed driver is holding a name board with your name in English. No app in Chinese, no pinyin-address panic, no touts. He takes your bags to a licensed car and drives you to a hotel we pre-booked and confirmed as foreigner-acceptable.
The hotel sits in a district we've pre-checked for foreign-guest acceptance, and your passport copy is on file before you fly. You walk in; they have your details; you sleep.
Wake slow. Then breakfast is yum cha — push-cart dim sum at a local teahouse, not the hotel buffet. Point at the cart, drink the tea, let the trolley come to you.
Three things a non-resident can't know — each one found the hard way, each one now built into every plan we make.
Paying with a foreign card in Alipay is fee-free on small amounts — but cross a threshold around ¥200 on some transactions and a service fee appears. Knowing where the line sits saves real money across a two-week trip.
China's high-speed tickets go on sale 15 days before departure at 14:00 local — and popular routes sell out that same afternoon. Every plan ships the date and a phone alarm, because nothing should quietly expire while you're at dinner.
China has pairs of train stations whose names differ by a single character. Book the wrong one and you're in the wrong city, at the wrong end of the line. Every intercity leg in your plan is checked against the exact station — not the city.
This is the layer a template can't copy. It only exists because someone on the ground checks.
Because the right plan depends on your trip — a six-day couple trip to one city and a twelve-day group trip with factory visits are not the same job. You get a clear, itemised number after we've seen your trip: never a guess up front, and never a number that moves once you're invested.
No. It's built by people who live in Guangzhou, using current on-the-ground knowledge. AI can sketch a skeleton — it can't tell you which hotel will actually register your passport, or which teahouse the locals queue at before nine.
No — it's your own trip, at your pace. Add organised transport, day trips and drivers if you want them (that's Arrive Ready), or keep full control and just use the plan.
Yes, on Arrive Ready — transfers, hotels, licensed drivers, tours and timed-entry tickets. Or keep the bookings yourself and use the plan. Either way you get the same blueprint.
Good — tell us the dates and the arrival and departure times, and we'll build the route around them. Late arrivals matter here: the last metro from Baiyun airport into the city leaves before midnight, so we plan that night for you.
Maybe not. Citizens of more than 50 countries — including the UK, Ireland, most of the EU, Australia and New Zealand — can enter visa-free for up to 30 days (policy currently runs to 31 December 2026). US and Canadian travellers still need one. Entry rules have changed several times in recent years, so we confirm yours against the official source before you book anything.
