Most China Silk Road tours explore major cities such as Beijing, Xian, Shanghai and Dunhuang. Some tours even feature cruises down the Yangtze River.
Normally the shortest time frame for a China based Silk Road tour is approximately 10 days. Tours can last for as long as 22 days.
Although each tour varies, the majority include costs for hotels, transportation, meals and entrance fees for most attractions. Keep in mind, however, that most prices are based on double hotel occupancy rates and economy flights.
Those who wish to tour parts of the world outside China can embark on other Silk Road tours which include stops in Turkey, Iran, Greece and India, just to name a few.
Many China Silk Road tours include visits to the city of Turpan, which reigns as one of the hottest locations in the world, particularly during the summer. Tourists should come well-prepared with sunscreen, proper clothing and plenty of water.
