Bijzondere China reizen

Round trip China

China verrast met een verfijnde en afwisselende reiservaring, waar serene tempels, historische steden en verborgen natuurparels elkaar afwisselen. Laat u betoveren door de elegantie van Suzhou, met zijn klassieke tuinen en eeuwenoude zijdeambachten, of dwaal door de sfeervolle steegjes van Pingyao, een perfect bewaarde Ming-dynastie vestingstad. Verblijf in een kleinschalige courtyard lodge aan de voet van de Great Wall, of geniet van de rust in een boetiekhotel met uitzicht op de rijstterrassen van Longsheng. Ontdek het artistieke Dali en het bohemien Shaxi, waar ambacht en cultuur samenkomen in de schaduw van besneeuwde bergtoppen.

Reis in alle rust door het veelzijdige China en combineer iconische bezienswaardigheden met minder bekende schatten.

Verblijf in karaktervolle boutique hotels, van stijlvolle courtyardhuizen tot serene berglodges in het zuiden. Laat u verrassen door de stilte van plekken als de Longji-rijstterrassen of de dorpen rond Dali en Shaxi. Geniet van de natuurlijke pracht van Zhangjiajie met zijn zwevende pilaren van steen, of van de rust aan de oevers van het Erhai-meer. Verken lokale markten in Chengdu of Guilin, en proef huisgemaakte gerechten in kleine familiekeukens. Sluit de dag af met een kopje jasmijnthee op een terras met uitzicht op de Li-rivier. China op een rustig reistempo betekent de tijd nemen om écht te beleven, te proeven en te verbinden; een unieke mix van cultuur, natuur, comfort en betekenisvolle ontmoetingen.

Travelling through China
Thanks to the extensive network of high-speed trains, domestic flights and well-maintained roads, travelling across China is comfortable and efficient. Whether you choose an impressive train journey along spectacular landscapes or a flight between cultural hotspots, China offers countless opportunities to discover this fascinating country at your own pace.

China's best travel time depends heavily on the region and your interests, as the country is vast and has diverse climates. Here is an overview by season:

Spring (March - May): One of the best periods to visit China. Temperatures are mild, flowers are in full bloom, and the landscape is green and fresh. Ideal for visiting historical cities like Beijing and Xi'an, or for trekking through natural areas like Jiuzhaigou.

Summer (June - August): During this period, temperatures can be quite high in many parts of China, especially in the interior. This is also the rainy season in southern areas, making for hot, humid days. Despite the weather, it is a lively time with many festivals and events throughout the country.

Autumn (September - November): This season is often considered the most beautiful travel time in China. Skies are clear, temperatures pleasant and autumn colours make natural parks extra spectacular. Perfect for exploring cities and enjoying walks by the Yangtze River or in Zhangjiajie.

Winter (December - February): Temperatures drop sharply, especially in northern China, where it can often be cold and sometimes bitterly cold. However, this season also offers unique opportunities, such as the famous ice festival in Harbin. South China tends to remain milder, making it a good destination for winter travel.

Note: Heavy rain often falls during the summer months, especially in southern China. To ensure a pleasant travel experience, it is wise to avoid busy periods such as Chinese New Year and Golden Week in October.

1. Do I need a visa for China?
No visa is required for tourist travellers with a Dutch nationality if the duration of stay is up to 30 days (this is valid for travel until 31-12-2025). Always check the latest visa and entry requirements for your nationality, as rules may change.

2. What is the best length of travel for China?
An average tour of China lasts between 10 and 21 days. This gives enough time to explore major cities, cultural highlights as well as natural areas in a relaxed manner.

3. What is the best way to travel around China?
Travelling by domestic flight and high-speed train is the most efficient way to cover long distances. For local travel, taxis, subways and private transfers are good options.

4. Is China easy to combine with another travel destination?
Yes, China is easy to combine with neighbouring countries such as Vietnam, Tibet, Mongolia or Japan. Thanks to good flight connections, it is possible to put together a comprehensive trip through Asia.

5. Will English be OK in China?
English is often spoken in major cities and tourist areas, especially by younger generations and in hotels and restaurants. Outside the cities, communication can be more difficult; a few basic words of Mandarin can then be very useful.
