Why Choose CGT Edu?
We Design for Learning, Not Just Travel
Every CGT Edu program is built by educators, not just tour planners. We align trips with real learning outcomes—intercultural competence, environmental awareness, reflection—not just sightseeing.
China, Beyond the Obvious
We take students deeper into China: from cave camps in Guizhou to island temples in Tibet, from local farms to stargazing at FAST. Real places. Real people. Real questions.
Bilingual, Bicultural, and Built on 10+ Years of Experience
Our team is bilingual, bicultural, and fully hands-on from start to finish. We bridge cultures—not only for students, but for teachers, parents, and schools. No outsourcing, no templated tours—just personal, thoughtful, well-run learning journeys.

Genuine Feedback from our Valued Travelers and Partners
VOICE FROM OUR AUSTRALIAN PARTNER
Some connections in this world are truly special, and those built on partnership are nothing short of magical. Our shared vision—to deliver the very best of what we believe in—made this collaboration deeply meaningful. I’m delighted to say that together, we achieved something remarkable. In the past, I’d often worry about the depth of a guide’s insight or a driver’s expertise. But from the moment we began working with your team, those concerns vanished. Two moments, in particular, captured the spirit of this journey: First, at White Deer Plain, one of our 12-year-old students fell ill and needed medicine left on the bus. Though the group had already reached the destination by elevator, your driver, Mr. Guo, went far beyond his duty. He retrieved the medicine and climbed the mountain on foot to deliver it to her. That act of selfless kindness redefined what service means. Second, at the Daxingshan Temple, Bruce shared his profound knowledge of Buddhism with our students. While many initially struggled to grasp the cultural nuances, a young girl named Sophie not only understood but translated his wisdom into English for her peers. Witnessing Bruce’s joy in that moment—and seeing Sophie bridge cultures—was where our journey truly transcended. It embodied how Chinese culture should be shared: through patient, heartfelt storytelling that crosses borders. This collaboration didn’t just meet expectations—it transformed them. Thank you, Lesley, and the entire team at China Explore Tour, for such an inspiring experience. We look forward to many more journeys together.
Emma – Australian School
My daughter still talks about sleeping in a cave!
We joined the Guizhou family adventure this summer, and it exceeded all expectations. From building bridges to exploring caves and visiting China’s space telescope—every day was filled with hands-on learning. The cave camping night was magical. My daughter made new friends from another continent, and we all danced around a mountain bonfire with the Bouyei people. Truly unforgettable.
A perfect mix of nature, culture, and curiosity
CGT’s Guizhou program gave our son something no classroom could offer—real-world science and human connection. The FAST telescope tour sparked his love for astronomy, and the weaving + dyeing workshops let him explore a side of China we didn’t even know existed. Everything felt thoughtfully designed, with lots of small surprises that made each day special.
Terracotta Warriors—and so much more
Xi’an with CGT was one of the best days of our entire China trip. Yes, the warriors were incredible, but what made it stand out was the behind-the-scenes storytelling and how they linked everything to our children’s questions. The city wall bike ride at sunset was a perfect end. We learned, laughed, and made beautiful memories.

Beijing & Xi’an: Ancient capitals, Chinese dynasties, Great Wall & Terracotta Warriors

Shanghai & Suzhou: Innovation, silk road history, urban design
More destinations are available for custom private or school-organized groups.
We believe in small group experiences. Most of our family trips and school programs limit group size to 10–16 participants, ensuring every child receives attention, can ask questions, and builds real connections with others.
WIFI is available in hotels. However, sometimes the signal might not be strong. It is recommended to have roaming on or obtain a sim/esim.
