China Group Tour with Equity School Trips

Equity – The School Travel People

An educational trip to China is of significant value to students of Business and Economics whether in particular with visits to Shanghai, including the Financial District, Bao Steel Plant and production factories. Even with this continued development, China is also the world’s oldest continual civilization with incredible wonders of the ancient world such as the Great Wall and the Forbidden Palace.

Equity has selected an extensive range of excursions designed to maximise China’s potential as a destination for educational trips. Most tours include two or three cities so that your students can compare different regions, and gain a deeper understanding of the contrasts between the ancient cultural centres and the modern megacities.

We recommend China for:

- Business & Economics

- Geography

- History

- Languages

- Culture & tourism
