DAY 1
Overnight Air China flight from Heathrow to Beijing. On arrival you will be met and transferred to the Novotel Peace for three nights. There is plenty to see in the country’s capital and we recommend that you prebook one of our experiences. The Beijing City Tour takes you to the enchanting Forbidden City, Tian’anmen Square, the Summer Palace and the incredible Temple of Heaven. In the evening why not treat yourself to a visit to the Peking Opera or a Peking Duck Dinner.

DAY 5
Transfer to Beijing’s railway station where you embark on a remarkable 700 mile, two day journey across China to the Tibetan capital, Lhasa. Only recently completed this is the world’s highest railway journey, reaching over 16,000 feet above sea level, high tech engineering has been used to stabilise the tracks over the permafrost and oxygen is pumped into the carriages to ease the effect of the altitude as you ascend.

DAY 7

On arrival in Lhasa, transfer to the Lhasa hotel for four nights. Dominated by the incredible Potala Palace, the city offers an enticing insight into traditional Tibetan culture. Known as ‘the roof of the world’ Tibet enjoys some spectacular natural scenery, which you can enjoy on our Karola Pass and Yamdrok Lake Tour.

DAY 11
Fly Air China to Chengdu, and transfer to the Tibet hotel for two nights. It is the giant panda that draws most visitors to the city as almost eighty percent of the world’s remaining giant panda population live in the mountains of Sichuan province. You can view and learn about these beautiful animals on our prebookable City Tour which visits the Breeding and Research Centre as well as some of the city’s other notable sights.

DAY 13
China Eastern Airlines flight to Kunming for two nights at the New Era hotel. Known as “The City of Eternal Spring”, this modern city is gateway to the traditional Yunnan province. Learn a little more about this region by taking our Western Hills and Kunming City Tour which includes the Yunnan Museum, where you will find fascinating exhibits on the costumes and artefacts of the region’s ethnic minorities.

DAY 15
Transfer to the airport for a China Eastern Airlines flight to Guilin and two nights at the Bravo Hotel. Guilin is set on the Li River in an area of outstanding natural beauty. We recommend visiting the nearby Reed Flute Cave, made up of spectacular stalagmites and rock formations that have been dramatically illuminated in a multitude of colours.

DAY 17
Fly Dragon Air to Hong Kong and transfer to the Excelsior for a three night stay. Hong Kong is best known for its iconic harbour but there is much more to discover on our Island Tour and other experiences.

DAY 20
Transfer to the airport for your Cathay Pacific flight back to Heathrow, arriving the same day.
