Featured China Winter Tours

Featured China Winter Tours includes the best destinations for China winter travel. For those who love snow and ice, we recommend heading to the northeast to attend the Harbin Ice and Snow Festival, where you can admire magnificent ice and snow sculptures, immersing yourself in a crystal-clear, dreamlike world. You can also visit China Snow Town, a fairy tale world covered in pure white snow, or head to Yabuli Ski Resort to fully enjoy the winter fun.

However, if you prefer warm sunshine during the winter, head south to the mild regions of Xiamen and Yunnan. In these places, winter is no longer cold; the sea breeze of Xiamen and the eternal spring climate of Yunnan provide a pleasant retreat.

For those who enjoy natural beauty, Huangshan, Zhangjiajie, and the Yuanyang Rice Terraces are excellent choices. These places offer unique winter landscapes, including snow-covered peaks, frosty leaves, magnificent sea of clouds, and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets.

Safe, Comfortable & Swift Trip

0ur 9 days focus trip to Hangzhou-Huangshan-Suzhou, was a pleasant experience with each day targeted a cultural, historical and communal site after breakfast, then another site after lunch, and may extend to the evening after dinner for shopping.

The trip was make informative by 4 well informed English speaking guides Ms Leaf, Ms Lacey, Mr Bruce & Mr Sloven at each town. Kudos and time saving travel by intercity High Speed Rail.

All this was well coordinated by Asia Odyssey Tour - Ms Alina Dan.

Reliable and Trustworthy

I recently booked my personal customised tour of 6 cities through Asia Odyssey under the consultant Alina.

From the very first day. She is very engaged, responsive, patient and able to change to my needs. She took the best personalised care for me. The communication and arrangement throughout 6 cities was with army precision and I felt supported in every step of the way especially when I needed last minute changes from Zhangjiaje to Chengdu. I'll be recommending to all my friends and will definitely use Alina again for my future trip of Lhasa and Tibbet.

Coming to local guides Julian at Shanghai, Max at Zhangjiaje, Shemy at Chongqing, Betty at Chengdu, Eillen at Xian, Momo at Harbin and Jiang at Beijing all were amazing. The last part of trip was made memorable by Jiang 's sense of humour and personal care of details. Thanks
