Frequently Asked Questions About Family Tours

Generally speaking, China is suitable for travel all the year round. We can customize it according to your needs. But April to June, September to November is the best travel time when the weather is neither too hot nor too cold.
If you are planning to visit China with your kids, we at China Culture Tour can organize the ultimate travel experience. Perhaps your young charges will enjoy learning kite making and flying or calligraphy, Chinese Kungfu Performance and basic Mandarin language. They may also enjoy a visit to a local family and make Chinese dumplings or school or more energetic activities such as bicycle riding on the Ancient City Wall or watch a Shadow Play in Xi'an, hiking along Li River or on the Terraced Fields in Guilin. How about a visit the the Giant Panda Breeding and hold a baby panda in Chengdu?
Mutianyu Great Wall is the most popular sections among family with kids as it is equipped with cable care, chairlift and slide way (toboggan).
Kids can learn painting, tie-dyeing and batiking in the Dong Villages. Besides, wood and bamboo carving are also available. It depends on what cities you will visit. We will arrange the activities based on your preference.
Prepare a contact card and let your kid carry along. The contact card should list kid’s name, parents’ name, phone number and hotel name of each city you will stay at. Tell your kid to show the contact card to the police if he/she gets lost. A wristband or watch with GPS is convenient for locating your kid. Parents should keep an eye on the kid any time, especially in crowded public places.
During the trip, there might be some places with potential risks that you need to be aware of. On the Great Wall, mind the bricks and stone beside your feet, and don’t stand on the edge to take photos. On the ancient city wall of Xi’an, watch out for electric golf carts and pedestrians when you ride the bike. When you are on water vehicle, like on the Yangtze River cruise, Li River cruise or bamboo raft, take care not to fall into water. Mind the traffic and road condition when you cycle in the countryside of Yangshuo. When you cross the road, walk on zebra crossing and look both sides even the green light is on. Require a car child seat when you use a car during the trip.
