In celebration of Chinese New Year this week, UTOvacation is offering its popular China 8-night vacation package for a jaw-dropping $299 per person — the lowest price we've seen — for late 2020 and 2021 trips.

How can they price a trip this low? By partnering with the local government to help cover costs, UTO has been able to make China more accessible than ever. Make this the year you visit China — you'll tour some of the world's most enduring landmarks for less than the price of flights alone.

What's included:

• Roundtrip flights to Beijing, return from Shanghai (see departure cities below)
• Domestic flight from Beijing to Shanghai 
• 8 nights with daily breakfast at well-reviewed hotels Beijing, Suzhou, Wuxi, Hangzhou and Shanghai
• Select sightseeing tours, including the Great Wall, Lanli Garden, Garden of Master of the Nets and West Lake
• Shopping trips to a silk-spinning factory, pearl center and tea shop
• English-speaking guide throughout
• Airport transfers

To know:

• Mandatory gratuities of $180 also are not included (they can be paid prior to departure by credit card or upon arrival in cash)
• A Chinese visa is not included, but can be arranged hassle-free via UTO for $230 or applied for independently
• There is a limited number of seats at a discount for each departure date — and they are likely to sell out quickly, and we suggest booking soon. (You can secure your booking with a $99 deposit.)  

When: September-December 2020, February-May 2021 or September-December 2021; surrounding dates are also discounted, starting at $50 more

Depart: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose or Seattle for $299, based on double occupancy. Single supplement is +$350.

Extend your trip: Add 3 nights in Xi'an to see the famous terra-cotta warriors for $599 more per person, or opt for a 5-night Yangtze River cruise extension for $799 more per person.
