Unwrap a Unique Festive Adventure in Beijing
Imagine stepping off the plane and into a winter wonderland where ancient temples are dusted with snow and lanterns glow against the night sky. Our Christmas in China tour kicks off in Beijing, where you’ll spend two magical nights beside the Great Wall, draped in festive lights. You’ll toast the season atop this ancient marvel, enjoying mulled wine and canapés as the panorama unfolds before you. This once‑in‑a‑lifetime moment sets the tone for an immersive journey through China’s most iconic sights, all fully inclusive from accommodation to tailored experiences.
Discover Imperial Glamour in China’s Capital
Beijing’s imperial legacy comes alive during the festive season. Wander through the Forbidden City under frosty skies, then savour Peking duck in a private courtyard. Your Christmas in China tour includes guided exploration of the Temple of Heaven and a rickshaw ride through the hutongs, where you’ll witness local families celebrating with lanterns and seasonal treats. With insider access supplied by our expert local guides, you’ll gain authentic insights into Beijing’s festive traditions—all carefully curated to ensure your comfort and enjoyment.
Marvel at the Terracotta Warriors in Xian
From the capital, jet to Xian for a journey back in time. The hush of the winter air makes the Terracotta Army even more awe‑inspiring. Under the guidance of a specialist archaeologist, you’ll explore the vast pits and meet the clay guardians who have stood watch for millennia. Your Christmas in China tour package covers round‑trip flights, VIP museum entry, and a sumptuous banquet featuring Shaanxi delicacies. Immerse yourself in ancient artistry before cosying up in a boutique hotel near the city walls.
Cuddle with Giant Pandas to Ring in the New Year
There’s no sweeter way to welcome a new year than in Chengdu, the heart of panda country. As part of your Christmas in China tour, you’ll spend New Year’s Eve at a reserve, meeting these gentle giants during a private feeding session. Celebrate with a traditional Sichuan banquet, complete with fireworks over the bamboo groves. Your package even includes a wellness morning in a tea‑ceremony garden, ensuring you step into the new year refreshed and inspired.
Sparkling Ice and Snow Festival in Harbin
Switch from pandas to ice sculptures on our second package, the Christmas: Winter Wonderland tour. In Harbin, wander through towering ice castles illuminated by rainbow lights. This 15‑day adventure—also saving £770pp if booked before 30 April—takes you to the heart of the Harbin Ice & Snow Festival, where you’ll witness master sculptors at work. With your Christmas in China tour ethos of inclusion, your stay features heated igloo-style suites and private festival guides to ensure front‑row views of the spectacular ice parades.
Enchanting Festive Markets of Shanghai
After Harbin, head south to Shanghai, where colonial architecture meets modern skyscrapers decked out in festive décor. Explore Christmas markets brimming with artisan gifts and seasonal treats—from candied hawthorn sticks to spiced teas. Your Christmas in China tour package includes rooftop cocktails overlooking the Bund and a private acrobatic show at the city’s famed circus. Every detail is arranged, from VIP transfers to curated market vouchers, so you can shop and sip in style.
Ultimate New Year’s Eve at the Great Wall
What could be more breathtaking than celebrating New Year’s Eve atop the Great Wall? Both itineraries culminate with this epic finale: a fireworks display illuminating the ramparts, champagne in hand, surrounded by fellow travellers sharing in the wonder. Our Christmas in China tour ensures seamless logistics—private coach transfers, gourmet picnic hampers, and warm blankets—so you can focus on the moment, not the details.
