About China International Travel CA, Inc.
We are experienced travel agents, most of us originally from China, who have decided to open our own travel agency as partners in San Mateo, California. Having seen people in this industry do things the wrong way, we were determined to take better care of our customers and run our business the right way. Although we specialize in ticketing and tour arrangements for travel to China, we also handle travel arrangements to and from the United States and other East Asian countries. Our wide variety of carefully designed tour packages will please most customers, but we're also happy to prepare custom tour packages to suit individual travelers' needs.
China’s Past and Present
With its long history, the China of yesterday has a rich culture and an abundance of historical sites replete with priceless artifacts. From Beijing’s Forbidden Palace, to the Great Wall, to Xi’an’s terracotta army, to the ancient cities of China’s Central Plains, and to the Silk Road, which opened up trade between East and West, China International Travel CA, Inc. (CIT) will take you on a trip through time to explore China’s glorious past.
The China of today commands the world’s attention, with the fast rise of its economy, the 2008 Beijing Olympics that stunned the world, and Shanghai’s much-anticipated Expo 2010. CIT will also take you on a journey of discovery to see the splendors of China’s modern cities.
China’s Natural and Human Wonders
China has the greatest geographic variety and the largest number of indigenous minority groups in the world. From the Tibetan Plateau, the world’s highest plateau, to the wondrous variety of China’s karst landforms, to the highest freshwater lake in the world, to China’s tropical islands, CIT’s professional travel services will allow you to personally design your ideal trip. You may also choose one of the itineraries that we have painstakingly designed for you, including destinations such as Yunnan’s Shangri-La and Lijiang, Jiuzhaigou, Zhangjiajie, Huanglong, and Guilin that make you feel as if you’ve entered a fairytale world, as well as places like Xinjiang and Tibet that make you eager to peek behind their veil of mystery. CIT will help you find the adventure you crave.

For all of our non-discounted tours, we will provide a more comprehensive “Preferred Benefits Part B” insurance policy free of charge to all customers who make full payment no later than 50 days prior to departure.
A Great Variety of Activities, Thoughtful and Unique Travel Arrangements
CIT not only makes special arrangements for our clients to enjoy such performances as a traditional kung fu show in Beijing, a Tang Dynasty-style song and dance show in Xi’an, or an acrobatics show in Shanghai; our sense of professional responsibility also leads us to come up with additional unique arrangements for our clients, such as a bamboo raft trip along the Yulong River near Guilin, an authentic Sichuan Opera “Face-Changing” performance, a ride on the “Hundred Dragons” sightseeing elevator at Zhangjiajie, or a ride on the Shanghai Maglev Train. Our hope is that in return for the earnest service we provide our customers, we will earn a good reputation and favorable “word of mouth” from our clients.
Dining and Hotel Accommodations
All of the hotels included in our itineraries are carefully selected based on our customers’ requests and feedback. Thanks to the resources and financial leverage available to us through China International Travel Service in China, we are able to offer our clients the best hotel sections and the best rooms at competitive prices. Our selection of restaurants and menu items is based on a careful consideration of American travelers’ habits and expectations. Although everyone’s taste is different, we do the best we can to validate our clients’ trust in us and ensure your satisfaction.
