    Is there a surcharge for solo travelers or do you offer the opportunity to share accommodation with someone else on the tour?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Explore!OperatorWritten September 2025

      As a solo traveller, you have the choice to book in a twin share option and potentially share with someone else of the same sex booked in the same room type. Or you can pay the solo supplement to make sure you have your own room throughout the tour. On average for this tour, the solo supplement is $1040 NZD.

  • J

    Joshua

    Asked on March 16th, 2025

    Is it overnight trains or day time trains? It says 2 overnight trains but itinerary says day trains?

    Transport
    • Explore!OperatorWritten March 2025

      There are two train journeys on this itinerary, both in the morning after breakfast. Day 3 - After a relaxed breakfast we will transfer to Hong Kong West Kowloon station and board the high speed train to Guilin. Our border formalities will be completed in Hong Kong and therefore we will need to be at the station a couple of hours before. The train journey will take three hours arriving into Guilin in the late afternoon. Day 8 - This morning, we will take the bullet train to Beijing, which takes about 4hrs 30minutes.

      Joshua

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Thanks. I was confused as it says in summary at the end that they are night trains.

    Asked on July 21st, 2024

    do u accept booking for one traveller only??

    Single supplement
    • Explore!OperatorWritten July 2024

      Yes, absolutely - solo travellers are very welcome and most of our trips will have a mix of couples, friends and solo travellers booked. Single rooms can be booked at an additional cost of $400, if opting to twin share, you will be roomed with a travel of the same gender.
