The Asia specialist announced on Thursday (16 March) its first group will depart for a 16-day trip on 21 May following the greenlight from the Chinese government.
“It will be a monumental and historic tour, and the opportunity of a lifetime to be among the first UK tourists back in China, after nearly three years,” said the operator’s founder Wendy Wu.
According to Wu, the tour will sell out in record time as customers have been “eagerly waiting” for the chance to travel to China after a three-year pandemic-induced hiatus.
“Having just reopened for tourism, now is the perfect time to travel and experience this spectacular country,” she added. “Having not had any tour groups for so long, the warmth and hospitality that our customers will receive in May will be second to none.”
The announcement comes as Wu said on Tuesday she was confident travel from the UK to China would resume soon following the Chinese government’s decision to reissue all types of visas from Wednesday (15 March).
“We are very confident that, following the news US travellers will be able to obtain tourist visas from 15 March, the news from China for UK travellers is imminent,” she said.
