Enjoy a Weekend in "Mulan's Hometown"
Xiamen is an idyllic destination which you should not miss for a weekend trip, especially if you live in the south of China.
This 3-day relaxing Xiamen and tulou (Hakka earthen strongholds) tour provides an opportunity to see the best sights in and near Xiamen in a short amount of time. No need to research which tulou cluster is worthy of a visit for authentic Hakka culture. Don't worry about the tourist crowds on popular Gulangyu Island. We have selected the best tulou clusters and designed an off-the-beaten-path route for you to have an authentic travel experience.
Tour 'Wow' Points
Explore Mulan's Movie Home
See a real earthen building that's so similar to Mulan's home that you'll think you're in the movie. Be invited by Hakka people into the living room of their earthen building. They'll show you the upstairs floor, which is not allowed in most of the other earthen buildings.


Feel the History and Artistic Temperament of Gulangyu Island
Get off the recurrent route that most tourists take. Discover the villa where Mr. Chiang Kai-shek once lived, listen to beautiful organ music, and enjoy a bird's eye view of the island from a viewpoint with few tourists.

Beijing in a day
![]() My partner found this company and booked with ease and no hassle. From start to finish we have been so looked after, upon arrival in Beijing after a train from Shanghai we were met by our guide Selinda. She has been amazing through out the day, flexible with times. She showed us the best place to get some food and then taking us to and from the Great Wall was filled with information and little facts. Plenty of time was given to explore the wall and then we were taken for some dumplings to revive us. Selinda made sure we were looked after and ensured we got back on the correct train. She made this trip so much less stressful and much more enjoyable. Would highly recommend this company for future use. more

Great way to tour Beijing
![]() My daughter and I toured Beijing with Selinda. She was prompt, professional, friendly, and helpful. We saw Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Mutianyu Great Wall section. At each site she shared the history and offered suggestions of good places for pictures. She was attentive to us and made sure we had everything we needed. The driver was helpful and having him drop us off and pick us up was immensely helpful. We toured the Summer Palace with Jason and he also did a stellar job sharing interesting facts and information which gave us context and a greater appreciation of what we saw. Jason, like Selinda, did a splendid job suggesting good photo spots and always happily offered to take our picture for us. I highly recommend these two tour guides and the driver. This was a great way to see some of the tourist attractions in Beijing. more

Epic time in Beijing with Selinda Zhang
![]() A huge shoutout to our most awesome tour guide Selinda Zhang!!! She is a walking talking encyclopaedia with a wealth of knowledge both historic and current. She made our visits to well preserved historical sites all the more interesting sharing architecture, literature, Chinese penmanship and poems to highlight the significance of each site we visited! She engages both adults and children and usually reticent kids were asking questions and learnt heaps about Beijing history this trip. We had an epic time in Beijing thanks to Selinda!! more
