Do I need a visa to participate in your tours?

Most foreign nationals require a visa to enter China. However, recent visa-exemption and 144-hour transit policies apply to several countries. We provide all the necessary itinerary documentation, such as hotel confirmations and official letters, to seamlessly support your visa application process.

How should I handle money and payments during the trip?

China operates as a highly cashless society. While major hotels accept international credit cards, standard daily transactions are handled via mobile devices. We recommend downloading Alipay or WeChat Pay and linking your international credit card prior to arrival for seamless payments.
