SHANLEY INTERNATIONAL

Choosing a holiday in China can be a memorable adventure for the majority of Britons, as it is still one of the very few destinations in little untouched by western influence left in the world. With an intimate knowledge of culture both in China and the UK, Shanleyintl has co-operated with local Chinese accredited travel agencies and has tailored the following specific tours that admit a little luxury into its specially selected range of adventure holidays and frequently includes highlights that usually figure as options on other such trips.

While ensuring access to the incredible bargain shopping and the exotic flavours and spices that China brings to mind, Shanleyintl also offers exciting tours that represent excellent value for money while maintaining a high standard of travel, hotels and lodgings throughout China.

We journey to locations we have personally researched and know you will enjoy and we allow you a little extra comfort when you arrive, using the better quality range of hotels and lodges hand-picked for their location, facilities and friendliness.

Our local extensively travelled English-speaking tour guides add intriguing local insights into China's life and culture to your itinerary. Where required, we also use additional local guides for in-depth information on local and traditional culture, plant life and history, not forgetting the mystical. We remember that local legends and traditions probably inspired you to choose your itinerary and locations in the first place.

Transport varies to maximise your enjoyment and understanding. When time is an issue, we fly. At other times, we take train trips with local people, elephants or bicycles and walk for a different perspective. It all adds to a China experience that you will never forget.
