Before we begin.
Does this tour stay within Guangdong?
No. It begins in Guangzhou, travels through Chaoshan and continues into southern Fujian, including Quanzhou, Anxi and Xiamen. The reference route departs from Xiamen, so plan your onward transport around that endpoint.
Is the Kinmen excursion confirmed?
No. Day nine is to be agreed separately. A Kinmen excursion is only a possible request, subject to travel-document eligibility, transport and availability checks. Do not treat it as an included or guaranteed part of this journey.
