Join-in tours 2010

Backroads of China join-in tours are designed for individual travellers who enjoy the fun and diversity of group travel. Each trip is run at the time of year which best suits the route travelled. The routes are varied, with some being primarily "sightseeing" trips, and others hardcore trekking. Whatever the style of travel, every trip aims to take you to places the average tourist does not visit, spending time with the local people and experiencing rural China at its best, pit toilets and all!

Each group will have a maximum of 10 travellers. The price of the trip depends on the final number of participants in the group. This allows you to enjoy the "reduced costs" of travelling with others, even though you sign up alone or with only one or two others.

Here is the list of trips that are on offer in the first half of 2010. Click on the tour name for full itinerary and price details.
