Beijing
As the capital of China, Beijing is full to the brim with must-see attractions.

While in Beijing, we’ll also have time to stroll down the famous Qianmen Street, one of the oldest and most beautiful pedestrian streets in China.
The Great Wall of China
Originally a series of smaller walls insulating various independent Chinese states, the Great Wall of China was connected more than 2000 years ago by the Emperor Qin to defend the first unified kingdom of China. Further extensions and restorations performed by the later Chinese dynasties developed the wall into the world famous feat of engineering that its known as today. On our trips to China, we’ll have the opportunity to see sections of the Great Wall and hear about its incredible history from our expert guide.
Xi’an
Once a vital stop on the Silk Road, Xi’an is one of the oldest and most interesting cities in China. The city is enclosed by an ancient wall which was re-constructed in the 14th century and visitors to the city can still stroll or bike along the fortification today. On our holidays to Xi’an, we’ll also get to explore the Wild Goose Pagoda, a Buddhist temple built in the 7th century, and the world-famous Terracotta Army. As always, an expert guide will be on hand to give us the history of the city and offer recommendations for what to do during our free time in Xi’an.
