China Homestay Tours, Homestay in China, Stay with the Locals in China

“There’s no place like home.” This is what we hear often when talking about traveling. We agree. But at the same time, we believe that your home is not the only place where you could feel welcomed like a family member. When planning your trip to China, why not traveling with our China Homestay Tours which take you to dive deeply into Chinese life? Our China Homestay Tours is one of the most creative types of tours we’ve got to offer. We believe that perhaps it is not for everyone who wants to visit China, but for the culturally-curious travelers.

When traveling in China, as you move from city to city, taking in the iconic and famous landmarks, you can only get an impression about part or only one aspect of China. How can you get an in-depth taste of Chinese life? What is a Chinese home like? What is a local Chinese family’s everyday life like? What’s it like to do shopping in local markets and to cook at home? Okay, here it is! Go with the hostess to a local market, share home-made meals and swap cultural anecdotes while sipping some quality Chinese tea, etc. These are what you may experience during our China Homestay Tours. Our China tours with homestay arrangements offer you opportunities to immerse yourself into an authentic experience of an amazing place, where you’ll feel welcomed and enjoy your stay like a local! So, want to have a try to dive deeply into Chinese life when traveling with us in China? Come on, and you will enjoy it!

It seems a little difficult for me to figure out which is the best one in my tour because all are wonderful. I really like the Garden of the Master of Nets in Suzhou; it is a classical Chinese garden. For the shooting experience, the Great Wall made me impressed the most, it was just very amazing. Next morning, I enjoyed the beautiful sunrise at the top of the Xianggongshan Hill. Next, we had the cormorant fishing and took many photos with the white beard fisherman and his cormorants standing on his bamboo raft. It was very special that shooting on the Bund in Shanghai they organized. I had such a great shooting experience. This was a bucket list trip for me. Stepping foot on the Great Wall, seeing the Warriors, experiencing the few remaining cormorant fishermen, it was all breathtaking and deeply informative. Alex and Peter provided great insight on their country.

Hi Monica.The tour went very well and as I said to Helen.we can never prepare a tour in China so we will be looking to another 4 or 5 cities to do next time with you help. lease note that what I say below is not critical but for you to give some thought to.

Beijing:Guide Rock was good in so much as picking us up and listening to what we asked of him in information. He could have been more forward in pointing out things of interest without us having to ask as I think that is his job and he should be constantly pointing out things of interest for but he spent majority of time talking to the driver (about what we do not know as it was Chinese)

Xian:Grace was very good and we learnt so much. The hotel was the best I have
been in for a long time. My previous 2 visits the hotels were in the centre and only average.

Guilin:Lizzie kept us informed and entertained. I think the rice fields tour should be included in your tours as they really enjoyed it.The better rice field tour I have been on twice was unavailable due to road works.
Shanghai:Guilie was good but could do a little more talking about matters of interest.I think one water town visit is enough as the 2nd is virtually the same as the first.There must be other items of interest in such a large city.

Thanks again for your interest in our discussion and ging them an insight into China.Best wishes to Alex and the future for the company.

I just wanted to comment on what a wonderful experience my husband and I had in China. We truly miss the beauty that China has to offer. Not only that, my overall experience with CET was better than expected. What I truly miss about China is the person! I am Asian myself, and I enjoy people. Now that we are back at home, as we get up every morning. It’s sad to not see people outside like in China. Again I want to express my heartfelt appreciation on what a wonderful experience we had with you. you has truly made our Vacation a Vacation that my husband and I will remember and cherish a lifetime!

Someone told us that if you want to know modern china, go to Beijing and Shanghai; If you want to know ancient China, then go to Xi’an. We were very lucky to take this tour and visit these three cities of China. We appreciated your service during the trip, especially the guide who gave us an excellent explains of china’s histories and developments. Besides, everything in the tour was considerably managed by China Expedition Tours, so we could have a light heart sightseeing and knowledge learning around China. Thank you so much.
