One day trip in Beijing

by keithfay Online Now Aug 4, 2012 at 7:58 PM

Hi, I would like to know if there are any China Travel Service in Beijing that offer one day trips to the surrounding areas of Beijing. When I was in Quangzhou, I joined many one day trips from China Travel Service (Canton) and I had so much good time and they are so convienent. Thanks in advance

    I am a native born ABC (Chinese) in California. My extend of knowledge background on Chinese history of the Ming Dynasty ....is a MING VASE. My Chinese culture is getting red envelopes during Chinese New Year and my favorite Chinese food is Chow Mein from Mr. Chau....never know about those "funny" so call "weird" Chinese dishes that my Non-English speaking parents used to cook and make us kids eat it. Mom said us kids are the MOST BUNCH OF PATHETIC CHINESE persons she ever met....sterotyping us as (what she tells her friends and relatives as "WHO GEE" (other known as ABC- Ammerican Born Chinese who KNOWS NOTHING about being Chinese!!!) Mom, being 85 yrs old, disabled and wheelchair bound now...said that "I should go back to the country of my hertiage and walk the soil of my ancesters" before she dies. She is originally from Canton and she speaks the "Toilson" dialect. I plan to take a CHINA tour next year through either www.chinatour.com or Cholidays.com. The tours offered are from Beijing and endiing in Hong Kong..... but I want to make a pit stop in Canton to see the village where my mom was born and grew up. So the ONLY way I can do that is to stay in Hong Kong for afew daays more on my own and try to go to Canton for a day or so.....so HOW do I booked a day trip to Mom's village from Canton? How did you get connected with China Travel Service (Canton)? If you get a hold of www.chinatour.com or Cholidays, they will connect you to local travel tourist day trips in Beijing. Chinatour is located in Burlingame, Ca and Cholidays is located in South San Francisco, Ca. Go to their websites. They are tour agencies but they contract out with all the local tours in the local cities in China. Good Luck. Betty, in Milpitas, Ca

    There are many travel agencies in Beijing. Which hotel are you going to stay at? Some hotels also offer day excursions.

    well, that's easy, and you can just book a tour with China Highlights (http://www.chinahighlights.com/beijing/ ) during your Beijing Visit, which will arrange everything for your one-day Beijing travel. In addition, I once booked it, which proved very helpful.
