The Driving Holidays of a Lifetime!
Dear Visitor,
A journey trough China by private car is the best way to explore the most beautiful regions of China.
Invisible air that places the distant mountains into the palm of your hand. Unspoiled smiles splashed across dark-brown, weather-beaten faces. The warm glow of red lanterns. Sapphire-blue skies, snow-white peaks, temples daubed in red, purple and gold. And the road before you unfolding, turn after turn in the direction of mythical Shangri-La.
Make a dream come true – drive in South-West China where the roads are empty, the landscape breath-taking, and you will have the adventure holiday of a lifetime.
Ever since I was young, I've loved discovering the world on four wheels. Four years ago, I started driving in China, and I was amazed at what I found: fabulous roads, stunning scenery, the warm nature of China's people in remote areas, the vast variety of China's cultures, not to mention some of the tastiest Chinese food I'd ever eaten. Now you can join me!
The driving holidays we offer are the kinds of holidays I enjoy myself. For starters, they are away from the crowds. Then, while I do have an adventurous spirit, I no longer care much for backpacking. Instead, I'll take a boutique, up-market hotel anytime; at a minimum, give me a nice, clean inn. Let the food be great and give me time for immersing myself in the country. And so our adventure holidays include off-the-road activities that range from hiking and horse-back riding excursions to outings to temples and monasteries, visits in local homes to fun in nightclubs and shopping in quaint towns.
I think driving in China is the best way to see this magnificent country because cars lets me go to places that I couldn't otherwise easily get to, give me privacy to be with my wife or friends, and, last by not least, driving on open roads quenches my thirst for freedom. If you choose to drive yourself, we take care of everything from your Chinese Driving License to comprehensive insurance. If, on the other hand, you'd rather just sit back and relax, we're happy to provide a driver for you.
Last but not least, I'm a bit of an individualist, and so I assume are you: you value personal attention, freedom and flexibility. So that's what we provide.
Yours sincerely,
Trip designer Peter Schindler, author, ex-race car driver and management consultant, received international press attention in 2007 for a 21,000 km driving journey he undertook for Nokia in China.
