Thanks for arranging our wonderful 28 day holiday to China in September. The blend of your arrangements and the few customised stops that we added with extra days, worked very well for us. All the agents did a good job and we thank them all.
-- From Mr. Jones
Indeed we thoroughly enjoyed our trip to China and came back with very fond and delightful memories of the trip. We were very impressed with the quality of service provided by China Tour Guide. With military precision your English speaking Tour Guides and private car drivers were aavailable at each and every airport and cruise embark and disembark points, holding our names in their hands. They helped us at the airports by getting us boarding cards and at tourist sites by organising tickets etc.

2010 Chinese New Year Tours | New Year Vacation

The Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year, is the No. 1 important festival of China. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th (this day is also called the Lantern Festival). And the Chinese New Year's Eve (Feb. 13th 2010) is time for the reunion dinner, a great countdown, brilliant fireworks or making wishes in the temple. The 2010 Chinese New Year (from Feb. 14 - 28, 2010), also the Year of the Tiger according to Chinese tradition, is a great opportunity for you to learn more about Chinese culture and take part in the carnival-like New Year celebration. Travel with more special spectacles, lesser tourist crowds and lower costs too!

China is a large country, you can choose from a vast variety of destinations, you can learn to make dumplings in Beijing just as Beijingers do, or join the cheerful crowds for the New Year Parade and Firework Show in Hong Kong. Choose some a little more remote cities to take in more traditional New Year spectacles and witness the customs passed down from generations to generations. Head for the Huangshan for millions of photographic opportunities, and immerse yourself in the local celebration. Or try the minority area of Yunnan with special customs and exotic landscape, featuring Jianshui, the hidden town in Yunnan that immerse in the Confucian culture for hundreds of years, and don't forget Yuanyang, a photographic paradise with the most majestic and imposing terrace field in China, almost 10 times bigger than the Longji Terraces in Guilin.
