very well by any means of traveling or enquiry to the local agency to figure out all the

relative details of any trip.

Accommodations

China Travel Planner carefully choose all the hotels based on service, location, and

characteristics in big cities, doing best to make the accommodations in the remote small

places as comfortable as possible.

Meals

China is a kingdom of cuisines with various tastes. Like in Beijing, except the renowned

Peking Ducks, there are quite a lot restaurants offering so called imperial banquet. If you like

spicy food, in the hot-pot restaurants in Sichuan, you can never stop enjoying it even you get

sweating.

Travel Planner guarantee its sanitary and cleanliness. Or even on our trek, we encourage our

cook offer client food with new tastes from day to day.

Drinks

As the tap water in China is undrinkable, China Travel Planner recommend clients to drink

bottled water throughout your trip in China, or boiled water on treks.

Vehicles and drivers

In most destinations of China, all the roads are well paved though the traffic is quite messed

up like in Beijing and Shanghai. We use proper vehicles, car, van, bus or coach in good

condition based on the size of the groups. We use 4WD jeeps or land cruisers only on the

rough road where the other vehicles could not pass through or based on clients requirement

on overland journeys or treks.

We use drivers who are native or local of each travel destination and maintain good safety

records for all trips.
