Special Notes

You can book this route based on your travel date. Specific arrangements for transportation, reservations, and certain experiences are subject to the written itinerary and quotation.

• Itinerary confirmed by date — This tour is available for booking. Please provide your travel dates and number of guests; details for transportation, accommodation, venue reservations, and other services will be confirmed in a written quote prior to payment.
• Departure dates — Legal holidays, venue opening days, and reservation slots may affect the specific daily itinerary. Once your travel dates are confirmed, we will verify the opening schedules of major venues such as the Forbidden City and finalize the sightseeing order in your written itinerary.
• Timed reservations — Booking slots, booking responsibilities, and ticket fees for the Palace Museum, the National Museum of China, and the Shanghai Museum are itemized in the quotation. If a booking cannot be made for the requested dates, we will first confirm an itinerary adjustment with you.
• November and December departures — Upbound transportation to Mutianyu may be affected by winter operating schedules, and the cycling tour around the Xi'an City Wall takes place outdoors with no cover. If you travel in November or December, we will check the operating status of both activities based on your travel dates and outline the arrangements in a written itinerary before payment.
• In-park shuttles — named one by one so that none is read in by implication. Three site shuttles: the Terracotta Warriors, the panda base and Dujiangyan. Two more at Mount Qingcheng: the cableway and the lake boat. Whether each is operating in your month, and whether it sits inside your price, is stated in writing in your quote. The one ascent transport already inside your price on this route is the Mutianyu cable car or chairlift.
• The two personal encounters — Backstage visits to Sichuan opera in Chengdu, close-up face-changing demonstrations, and exchanges with Taoist priests at Mount Qingcheng, including tai chi experiences, all require confirmation of hosting arrangements and costs for specific dates. No commitments regarding personnel, duration, or time slots will be made until confirmed.
• Rail and flight schedules — Flight and rail segments—Beijing to Xi'an, Xi'an to Chengdu, Chengdu to Dujiangyan and back, and Chengdu to Shanghai—are checked for available services and seat or cabin class on your travel dates, then logged on your itinerary confirmation.
• Shanghai Museum branch — the plan says Shanghai Museum. Which branch your day eleven visit uses is being settled, and your quote names the branch in writing.
• Bicycle hire on the city wall — Whether cycling on the city wall is included, rental duration, and overtime fees are specified in the quote for your travel date; if weather is unsuitable for cycling, the activity can be adjusted to a walk along the city wall.
• Security screening at the square — Security screening at Tiananmen Square may impact the day's itinerary pace. Day 4 includes visits to the National Museum of China and the Temple of Heaven, followed by a train to Xi'an, requiring confirmation of appointment slots and train schedules.
• Visa window — Entry and visa-exemption requirements may vary depending on your passport, travel dates, and length of stay. Please verify with official channels before booking; we will also confirm your itinerary and applicable conditions before providing a quote.
• US passports — Guests holding U.S. passports should verify their entry eligibility based on their personal visa status and itinerary; if a visa is required, please allow sufficient time for the application process. Specific requirements are subject to information officially published by China.
• Confirmation and changes — Confirm the deadline, payment milestones, and change and refund terms, subject to the written quote and confirmation for your travel dates; rescheduling may affect transport and venue bookings.
