Generally speaking before taking pictures of people, it would be better to ask permission first. For religious reasons and relic protection, in some national preserved attractions, such as the Terracotta Warriors Museum in Xi'an, the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, and the Potala Palace in Lhasa, photography is strictly limited in certain areas and you can find the signs of "No Photos" or "No Flashing". Besides, do not take photos in politically sensitive areas like military bases and customs.

Besides, your professional English-speaking private guides will accompany you throughout the whole journey in China, so just relax and enjoy your time.

Is it a common practice to give tips in China? Tipping has now become an accepted practice in China as it is considered a gesture of appreciation for good service. The suggested gratuity is CNY 80 per traveler per day as tips for the guide and CNY60 per traveler per day as tips for the driver. However, you might pay more or less depending on their services.

How to apply for a tourist visa to visit China?

If you travel with us, you will always have a private tour guide and driver with you in each city to give you a safe and happy journey.

Will I be able to exchange Dollars, Euros, or other currencies during my tour in China? Yes. Chinese Yuan (CNY) - also called Renminbi (RMB) is the official currency in China. There are several places you can exchange your currency in China, including the airport, some major hotels, and most local banks. It's easier to exchange cash directly in China rather than via a traveler's check or credit card, so it's important that you plan ahead and bring enough cash with you. And if you are using Chinese Alipay or Wechat apps, you can also try the mobile payment method - which is the most popular in China now.

Can I enter China with a port visa (visa on arrival) now? Yes! Tourists from several major countries, such as the United States and Australia, can now enter China with a port visa at Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Dalian, Fuzhou, Xiamen, Xi'an, Guilin, Hangzhou, Kunming, Guangzhou (Baiyun Airport), Shenzhen (Luohu, Shekou), Zhuhai (Gongbei). For easier entry, you can choose a Shanghai Port Visa. With a Shanghai port visa, you can enter China through Shanghai port and travel to other cities within the country. You also exit from any city in China. This makes it easier for you to plan your trip to China and explore the country without worrying about visa restrictions. If you are interested in applying for a Shanghai port visa, please contact our travel experts for more information on the application process and required documents. *A port visa is a type of visa that allows foreign tourists to enter China through designated ports of entry. It is a convenient option for tourists as it simplifies the process of entering China.

Is it common to use credit cards in China? Major credit cards like Visa and Master Card are widely accepted by star-rated hotels, upscale restaurants, and large shopping malls in China. Nowadays, mobile payment is getting more and more popular, not only in big cities but also in small towns. But never mind, cash is still widely used. So, it is suggested to prepare some small notes of Chinese YUAN during your tour.
