The adventure

Short and sweet, but doesn't miss a beat. Embark on an eight-day whirlwind tour through three of China's greatest destinations: Beijing, Xi'an, and Chengdu. Wander through Tian'anmen Square and climb Jinshan Park for a bird's-eye view of the Forbidden City. Walk along the historic Great Wall, and bring a picnic lunch to chow down beside this world wonder. With free time in futuristic Beijing and visits to ancient marvels like the Terracotta Warriors, experience the best of China in just over a week.

Welcome to China! Arrive at anytime. Then join your CEO and group in the evening for a Welcome Meeting and an Orientation Walk of Beijing. Tonight's your First Night Out so get to know your group under the bright Beijing lights.

Hop on local transportation and visit some of Beijing's top tourist spots. Take a CEO led tour of the symbolic centre of Chinese power, Tiananmen Square. See the Forbidden City from a birds eye view at Jingshan Park and wander through the picturesque Hutong alleyways.

This morning, travel to the legendary Great Wall of China. Together we'll hike about 5 kilometers of this 6000 km masterpiece. Opt to ride the cable car, chairlift or even ride the toboggan down. After a full day at the Wall, we'll return to Beijing where we'll board an overnight train to Xi'an.
