Low cost-high value tour of China

The exceptional-value trip to China has just popped up in the market and seeing is barely believing:  14 days from San Francisco for $2199 or from New York, Washington, D.C. or Chicago for $2,499 per person.  This translates to a mere $157-$178 a day.  And the price is all inclusive:  excellent hotel accommodations, most meals, great guides, a fascinating and fun itinerary and all transportation including transpacific flights.  Tell us you can resist.

China Spree’s “China’s Best Treasures” hits all the high notes and some unexpected ones too: Beijing, the Forbidden City and Great Wall; lunch with a family living in a hutong (authentic old neighborhood); Xian to stare awestruck at the Terracotta Warriors; gorgeous Guilin; the Suzhou classical gardens.  Ride a “gondola” in one of the Tongli canals and be in the buzz in sophisticated Shanghai, China’s dazzling cultural and financial center.  See the extraordinary green undulations of the Long Sheng rice mountain terraces and lunch atop the Dragon’s Spine. Photographers will faint.  And ride the Maglev, the ultra high-speed magnetic levitation train.

Enjoy a real Peking duck dinner, nibble through a dim sum banquet, slurp a hot pot lunch, a tea banquet, and scarf down a farewell feast. Elaborate American breakfast buffets in every hotel.  And the hotels – - check ‘em out:  The Marriott Beijing City Wall, Pullman Shanghai Skyway, Xian Grand Noble, and Sheraton Guilin – all 5-star, offering every comfort and convenience.
