Why a Tailored Trip Works in China
China rewards planning: distances are big, the best venues aren’t always obvious, and a little local insight goes a long way. A tailored or small-group itinerary lets you see the headline sights and the queer side of each city without wasting days figuring out logistics.
A Popular Route
- Chengdu — the relaxed, queer-friendly start: pandas, teahouses, easy-going nightlife.
- Shanghai — the cosmopolitan core: the Bund, the FFC, the best bars and clubs.
- Beijing — the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and the Sanlitun/Dongdan scene.
- Add-ons — Hong Kong, Taipei (Asia’s biggest Pride) or Xi’an for history.
