About us
A small company, deliberately
We believe a good trip is about more than visiting famous landmarks. It's about discovering local food, exploring neighbourhoods and experiencing everyday life in China.
That's why we focus on creating thoughtful, flexible travel experiences rather than simply putting attractions together. From a single day tour to a multi-city journey, we pay attention to the details that make a trip work for each traveller.
We may not be the biggest travel company, but we want to make planning a trip around China feel more personal, practical and straightforward.

How we got here
The short version, including the parts that did not go well.
2017 — 2026
2017
Our First Steps in Yunnan
We started in Yunnan, exploring experiences beyond traditional sightseeing, from snow mountain hikes to evenings wandering through old towns.
2020
A Pause in Travel
The pandemic brought international travel to a standstill. Like many in the industry, we had to slow down and rethink what lay ahead.
2024
Going Deeper into Day Tours
We began focusing on day tours in Chengdu and Chongqing, creating more thoughtful experiences around local food, culture and everyday life.
Today
Across China
Years of hands-on experience have helped us grow from a local operator into a team serving destinations across China. Today, we bring that local knowledge and practical experience together to create journeys that work for each traveller, from a single day tour to a multi-city adventure.
Who you will actually deal with
We're a China-based team who work directly with the places and people that make each trip possible.
Jarry
Founder
Manjing Travel grew from my experience in local tourism and a belief that travelling in China can be about more than ticking off famous sights.
