Documents and bookings
Verify entry rules with official sources. Save copies of your confirmations and keep the original documents needed for travel accessible. Do not send passport scans through an ordinary inquiry form.
Phone and payments
Check your connection options, prepare a payment backup and keep access to verification messages. Save important addresses in Chinese and share your itinerary with someone you trust.
Comfort and safety
Choose a pace that fits your group, keep essential medication and documents in your hand luggage, and review travel insurance and your home government’s current travel advice.
A final check
Review weather, transport details and opening days close to departure. Confirm pickup instructions and ask how to reach the provider if plans change.
