To celebrate Chinese New Year, leading Asia specialist, Travel Indochina, is offering its customers a tantalizing saving of £200 per couple on two of its most popular journeys to China. The offer is available on all bookings made  throughout the month of February and with more than one option to choose from, represents a perfect way to see the highlights of this most formidable of Asian giants, in a small group of only 16 travellers.

The exciting 15-day 'China Panorama' small group journey reveals the very best of China's cultural offerings, from the Forbidden City in Beijing to the Terracotta Warriors in Xian and the thriving city of Shanghai. Visit a spectacular hill tribe area in rural Yangshuo, wonder at the stunning natural scenery of Guilin and learn all about one of the world's rarest and most captivating animals during a morning spent observing their daily life at the Giant Panda Research & Breeding Base in Chengdu. An overnight train journey, a traditional rickshaw ride, and a tour of the Great Wall complete this unforgettable Chinese adventure. Prices start from £2,955 per person inclusive of international flights - saving £200 per couple!*

Alternatively, the 12-day 'Three Gorges Discovery' journey incorporates a fantastic programme of activities which takes in not only the main highlights of the country, but also bespoke excursions and hidden gems, only available to Travel Indochina customers. Among the options are a tasty homemade lunch in a family home after a fun rickshaw ride through Beijing's busy alleyways; an authentic tour of the Great Wall, visiting a section that is less frequented by tourists for a more intimate experience; and the chance to witness the spectacle of the largest dam in the world from the comfort of a private balcony aboard a cruise down the Yangtze river. Prices start from £2,495 per person inclusive of international flights - saving £200 per couple!**

Editor's notes:

Travel Indochina has been operating Small Group Journeys and tailor-made travel to the "real" Asia for 20 years. Today, the company features the widest range of itineraries of departures to Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos than any other tour operator in the UK, as well as a large variety of journeys to Thailand, Burma, China and Tibet, India, Japan, Bhutan, Mongolia and Sri Lanka. Unlike many other travel companies, Travel Indochina limits its group size to a maximum of 16 people. These smaller groups enable travellers to gain the best from both worlds - greater access to the local culture and plenty of opportunities for independent exploration.
