China group tours usually come in various options depending on the group size, and the price and experience will vary accordingly. There are usually three common categories, large group tours, small group tours, and luxury small group tours.

Large group tours are the least recommended. Though it will be the cheapest in cost, the travel experience may be the least ideal in comparison. With around 30 or even more people in one group, you may not receive the kind of service you expect from your guide, have to wait for others during the trip, or be rushed when touring through an attraction. It is also impossible for the tour guide to notice and take care of your personal requirements in time.

What to Know about China Group Tours

Small group tours are the most recommended among the three. It is acceptable in price and offer enjoyable experiences. The group size is generally under 20. Your guide will be able to take care of everyone’s needs. This is why we always recommend and organize our clients the small group tours.

The luxury small group tours usually have a group size under 12 or 10 people. They are the most expensive of the three with the best services. However, they are not so recommended because maybe just for an extra bit of money, you will be able to go on a private tour which will allow you to craft your own itinerary with the most options.

How China Group Tours Work

We offer the best travel experience by organizing exclusively small group tours with a maximum of 12 people. You can also choose group tour packages by destinations, for example there are Beijing group tours, Xi’an group tours, and the Silk Road group tours.

Group tours are an excellent option for solo travelers, couples, and travelers on a budget. They are generally cheaper than private tours as you will be sharing many things with others.
