🇨🇳 China Experience — 19 Days

Beijing to Hong Kong | Small Group Adventure | Intrepid Travel

Go beyond China’s famous landmarks on this 19-day small-group adventure from Beijing to Hong Kong, combining ancient history, spectacular scenery, wildlife, food, rail travel, hiking and a three-day Yangtze River cruise.

Starting in Beijing, discover some of China’s greatest icons including the Great Wall and Terracotta Warriors, before travelling south by high-speed rail into a very different side of the country.

In Chengdu, experience the city’s famous Sichuan cuisine and visit a giant panda research base to learn about conservation efforts. Continue to the sacred mountains of Emei Shan, where you’ll hike through misty forests and stay overnight at a Buddhist monastery. 

Then slow the pace on a Yangtze River cruise through the dramatic Three Gorges, before heading towards the extraordinary limestone landscapes of Yangshuo. Here, explore the countryside by bicycle and experience rural Chinese life away from the major cities. 

The adventure finishes in Hong Kong, providing a spectacular contrast between China’s ancient traditions and one of Asia’s most dynamic modern cities.
