Starting prices use a party of 4 for comparison, which is different from the minimum group size. Guide or tour-leader arrangements for 7 or more must be confirmed for the selected party size in the written quotation; the 2-to-6-person arrangements do not automatically apply.

Prices apply only to the actual years and dates below and do not roll over annually. Please enquire for unlisted dates, expired periods or different party and room arrangements.

Children are quoted individually by age, height, bed use and room occupancy. A child's basic fare does not mean free participation; breakfast, admission, scenic-area transport, rafting, hot springs and resort benefits may require supplements.

Confirm departure dates and seasonal facilities before booking. Snow conditions, flowering, sunrise/sunset, rime, aerial photography and scenic-road access are not guaranteed on every day.

Before booking, provide the actual entry and travel documents each traveller will use so hotel, attraction and regional reception requirements can be checked. Eligibility for Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and other passport holders cannot be inferred from ethnic Chinese identity alone.

Payment, cancellation, amendment and non-refundable confirmed-resource conditions will be stated before booking. Confirmed hotels, admission and activities may incur actual losses. Travel Mama’s quotation and booking confirmation terms apply.
