The Best of China tour takes in Bejing, Xian, Chengdu , Guilin and Shanghai , incorporating all the key highlights to give the visitor a real flavour of the country.
The capital, Bejing, is bursting with iconic historical and modern landmarks including the Great Wall of China, the Forbidden City, the Olympic buildings, and the Temple of Heaven . If you're feeling adventurous, the 70km walk along the length of the Great Wall from Badaling to the Gobi desert is a “once in a lifetime” moment.
Xian's Terracotta Warriors are a sight to behold, with 6,000 life-size warriors and horses impressing on visitors who come to view them.
Animal-lover or not, any visitor to China must pay a visit to Chengdu, famous for being home to the country's largest giant panda sanctuary, which recently became home to its first twin giant panda cubs, Zhen Zhen and Qiao Qiao.
For the photographer, Guilin offers a striking landscape of limestone cliffs forming a dramatic backdrop along the Li River.
Shanghai is a bustling megacity on the east coast of China , and completes this particular tour. Here the visitor can experience some of the nation's best cuisine alongside the impressive skyscraper skyline. Chinese New Year celebrations take over the city between January and February, with glorious decorations filling the streets.
