      We are very happy to confirm that we have a small group adventure starting on Friday, 20 November 2026, and yes, this can match the date you are interested in. This is our 11-day small group adventure to Beijing, Xi'an, Zhangjiajie, and Shanghai, with a fixed itinerary and fixed travel dates.

      Beijing, Xi'an, Zhangjiajie, and Shanghai make a fantastic combination:
      - Beijing for the Great Wall and Forbidden City,
      - Xi'an for the Terracotta Warriors,
      - Zhangjiajie for its otherworldly sandstone pillars and glass bridge,
      - Shanghai for its modern skyline and charming old quarters.

      If the fixed itinerary does not fully meet your needs, we can absolutely design a customized private adventure for you on or around those dates—adjusting the pace, hotels, and cities according to your preferences.

    Asked on July 9th, 2026

    Is a visa needed? I am Italian and live in the Netherlands. Are there entry fees upon arrival in Beijing? Do I have to get vaccinated before arrival? I have to book the plane by myself. I want to reserve a spot on the trip after booking the plane. Is it possible?

    • Travel China GuideOperator•Written July 2026

      For Italian citizen can enjoy 30-day visa-free travel policy.

      At present, China has no severe infectious disease, so no specific inoculation like malaria vaccine is needed before heading to the country. Anyway, all international travelers should note that yellow fever vaccine is mandatory for people coming from yellow fever prevalent area, including residents of the contaminated areas and travelers who plan to directly head for China from these areas. These people have to present a valid vaccine certificate of yellow fever upon entry as well as their other travel documents.

      The tour is still available now, you can book flight first and book this tour then.
