Summers can be hot and humid, that you can visit some high altitude places (Tibet), mountains (Zhangjiajie, Huangshan, Mount Emei) and scenic resorts (Guilin/Yangshuo) in China. While, winters can be bitterly cold, and it is best time to see the snow in China and have skiing fun. The Northeast China are recommended, like Harbin and China Snow Town. Or come to Yunnan for warm weather to explore colorful Yunnan.

Private tour to Kailash Mansarovar

We were on private trip to kailash- Mansarovar through Lhasa with Asia Odyssey travel.
It was a great experience booking with Asia Odyssey travel. Asia Odyssey provided agent Rex to work with us. Rex is amazing individual who helped us through out our journey like carving itenary the way we wanted, provided good comfortable vehicle with very good driver and a very
friendly and caring tour guide. We are also satisfied with hotel stay in each city.All stays were upto the standard as he promised they would be. Thank you Rex.we are happy with the deal we got. Rex was in constant touch with us before, during and ending our journey. We requested many changes during our journey due to changed interest and flight schedule . He was there to help us every time.
I would highly recommend to travel with Asia Odyssey specially having Rex by your side.
Just one thing I would like to mentions is that the meal plans. I would suggest that if all three meals included in itenary would be great help for vegetarian travellers like us. So we didn't have to worry about food.
Overall it was a very good experience with Asia Odyssey and travel and Agent Rex. Much appreciated

Our agent Chia is simply the best

Our agent Chia is simply the best! She was in contact with us every step of the way from the time we committed to the Beijing - Xian - Chengdu - Lhasa - Shanghai tour. There was absolutely no stress with the entire tour ie. Pick ups, train/ plane tickets, payments. Each time Chia was able to answer any questions that we had almost immediately. The tour itself was great, met some really nice people from different parts of the world. Groups were a maximum of 12 so the guides were always very attentive - in Tibet, we only had 3 left in the group. We have travelled quite extensively but this is the first time we have engaged in a tour and it certainly did not disappoint. Highly recommended!

Asia Odyssey fantastic tour & guides

This was a fantastic tour & Asia Odyssey is a great tour company. Runny in the office did a great job, kept us informed all the time and helped us when we wanted to make a change to the schedule. The guides in each place were great. Emma in Shanghai was very, very good and such a lovely person & Emily in Bangkok was great too. This was our first trip to China, we are in an older age group & not good eith technology but this company & their guides made it the best experience & a fantastic holiday. I can't recommend them highly enough. You can book with complete confidence.
