This itinerary weaves together Beijing’s grandeur, Chengdu’s pandas, the highlands of Yunnan, and the serene shores of Shanghai. It’s for those who want culture, nature, adventure—and the stories that come from both.

Across China: A Tapestry of Experiences
Ancient Giants & City Rhythms
Begin in Beijing, where imperial walls stretch across the horizon and yellow rooftops glint under wide skies. Wander the Forbidden City, slip through narrow hutong alleys, and stand atop the Great Wall at Mutianyu—calm, grand, and less crowded. A private Taiji morning meets slowing down in purpose-filled moments.
Journey through landscapes steeped in history and wild nature
Wild Companions & Fiery Flavors
Fly to Chengdu to meet the world’s most beloved pandas and savor fiery Sichuan cuisine. Dive into street-side aromas, lanterned courtyards, and local markets. By night, opera traditions, by day, leafy teahouses where the afternoon stretches with conversation and spice.
Yunnan & The Tibetan Highlands: Villages in the Clouds
Venture deeper into nature in Yunnan. Lijiang’s old town charms; moss-green terraces envelop you. Trek into the mountains toward Tiger Leaping Gorge—the zigzag of switchbacks, the roar of cliffs, the sharp breath of altitude. Shangri-La offers solace: monasteries, grasslands, alpine skies and stars that feel close enough to touch.
Shanghai Finale: Glamour, Contrasts & Reflections
At journey’s end, swap mountain trails for skyscraper silhouettes. In Shanghai, stay in heritage-meets-modern luxury. Explore the French Concession, the Bund, chic galleries and neon nights. Art, food, riverside cocktails—and a final dinner that sums up everything you’ve seen and felt.

You’ll leave both grounded and expanded, ready to see the world with a richer heart.
