Igal — from the first call to the journey home

Personal planning, close support,
no worries.

I'm an Israeli who has lived in China for 13 years, speaks Chinese and knows the country from the inside. I met Yang, my wife, 8 years ago in Beijing. Today we live in Zhuhai — a coastal city in southern China, right on the border with Macau.

Over those years I've built a real local network here — agents, guides, drivers, hotels and suppliers — and I help Israeli families and business people find their way in China: on a trip, in a meeting, or any time they need someone local they can trust.

Together we give you and your family complete personal care throughout the trip — from the first call until you leave the airport for home.

Available for you during the trip
On WhatsApp, by phone, or on Zoom — you're never alone.

I work in tourism, and I believe in deep transformation through travel — especially travel to China, a place without end. I'm here in constant learning and change myself, and like the Chinese I feel I'm growing at an incredible pace. That's the gift I want to give you — because a trip to China is not a generic tour done with a big group on a bus.

WHAT WE DO

A private trip to China, built around you.

There is no off-the-shelf route and no coach waiting for you. We build the trip from scratch — around who you are, how long you have, and what actually interests you.

Planned from scratch

A conversation, a proper briefing, then a day-by-day itinerary written for you alone — not a template with your name swapped in.

Built for who's travelling

A couple, a family with small children, or a group of friends — the pace, the distances and the activities all change accordingly.

Route and destinations

We choose together where to go and for how long, including places that never appear on the standard tourist route.

Hotels and transport

Hotels chosen for your location and needs, high-speed trains, domestic flights and drivers — all arranged in advance.

Experiences and guides

Local guides where they genuinely add something, meals where Chinese people actually eat, and experiences that are hard to book from outside.

Support throughout

I'm here in China, in the same time zone. If something changes mid-trip, you're one message away.

There is no single price, because no two trips are the same. It depends on who's travelling, the dates, the length and the level of service — and comes as a detailed proposal after we talk.

Planning your China trip — in five simple steps.

1

A focused intro call

Send a message, no obligation. We'll get to know each other briefly and work out together how to turn your holiday into a seamless, unforgettable experience.

2

Understanding your needs (video call)

We dive deeper into your family dynamic, preferences, interests and the exact pace that suits you — so the trip serves you, not the other way around.

3

Tailoring your itinerary (my work)

Behind the scenes, I design a premium day-by-day itinerary tailored precisely to you — with care for the smallest details.

4

Review, refine & agree

We meet again to go over the full plan together. We sharpen, refine and make every adjustment needed — until the itinerary is nothing short of perfect for you.

5

Take off with peace of mind

You're on the plane, completely free for experiences and quality family time. Every logistic is handled, and I'm available throughout the trip for anything you need.

Ready to start? Tell me about your family and what you're looking for — and I'll come back to you with a personal proposal.

Questions people ask before we start

What kind of trips do you arrange?

Private, individually tailored trips only. We don't run group tours and we don't sell off-the-shelf packages. Most of our clients are families, couples and independent travellers looking for a personal experience rather than a ready-made template.

What does a trip cost?

There's no single price, because every itinerary is built individually — around the destinations, the number of days, the standard of hotels and your preferences. After the introductory call and once the route is built, you receive a detailed, transparent proposal setting out exactly what's included and the total cost, with no surprises.

I don't know China at all. Is this right for me?

That's exactly the case we exist for. Most of our clients are travelling to China for the first time. We handle all the logistics, the language and the coordination — so you can simply experience the place without the stress of arranging everything yourself.

Can we travel with children?

Of course. A large share of our clients are families. We adapt the pace, the destinations and the activities to the children's ages, so the trip works for everyone.

Are you available during the trip itself?

Absolutely, and it's one of the things that matters most to us. I'm here in China, in the same time zone, and available on WhatsApp daily between 08:00 and 20:00. If something changes or you need help — we're one message away.

How far in advance should we plan?

As early as possible is best — it gives us time to build a precise itinerary and to secure hotels and domestic flights on your dates. That said, we can work to shorter timelines too; talk to us and we'll see what's possible.

Are you a travel agency?

We're neither a marketplace nor advisors alone. We plan, arrange and actually run the trip, working directly with the network of local suppliers we use in China — hotels, trains, domestic flights, guides, drivers and attractions.
