What's the big deal? Yes, you read it correctly — experience China and Thailand sans summer crowds for $299 including flights, hotels, transfers and tours. In China, you'll tour Beijing and visit sites like the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and more for three nights. Then, in Thailand, you’ll spend a total of five nights touring the shrines, temples and markets in Bangkok, then off to revel at Pattaya's beaches and boisterous nightlife. Roundtrip international flights to and from the U.S., flights and ground transportation between cities in China and Thailand plus sightseeing tours with an English-speaking guide are all included.

At this price, departures are from Los Angeles or New York on select dates February-March and October in 2023 or 2024. Surrounding dates and flights from 23 other U.S. cities are also available. UTOvacation’s trip assurance (reg. $99 per person) is also included, allowing you to make changes for your tour up to 150 days prior to your scheduled departure. You can also customize your trip with extra nights, tours, upgrades and more.

As a reminder, UTOvacation works with local partners and tourism associations throughout Asia to help cover costs. These immense savings are passed along to Travelzoo members, and that’s how they’re able to offer a price this low. We've researched this against similar tours and you'll save up to $1220. Plus, a Chinese visa is not required for this trip.

Travelzoo tip The first 400 bookings can purchase a trip extension that includes Shanghai & Phuket plus direct flights between these two cities for $99. This package normally costs $299.
