Konsortium brings you to the astounding sides of China that many travellers don’t get to discover
Imagine sailing on a sheepskin raft, saddling up with camels on sandy dunes and riding a princely horse carriage past a romantic Swan Lake.
You don’t have to fly halfway across the world for these unique experiences. Discover the magic hiding in the mountains and villages of China with the thrilling packages that Konsortium has to offer.
Legendary Sightings and Silk Road Adventures
Unknown to many, China is home to many natural sanctuaries that will sweep you off your feet. With Konsortium’s 12D Splendid Silk Road tour, cross the incredible slopes of Echoing-Sand Hill on camel-back to visit the heavenly Crescent Moon Spring. Don’t worry, this pretty oasis not a mirage!
Be treated also to the wonderfully rainbow-coloured mountains at Zhangye Danxia National Geological Park, a result of mineral deposits that have been accumulating over 24 million years. The Yellow River Hoodoo National Geopark will also give you the experience of rafting on sheepskin.
On this tour, you’ll be treated to unforgettable interactions with other natural wonders, including the Flaming Mountain, Grape Valley and a boat ride on Tianshan Heavenly Lake.
Or take the 11D Amazing Northern Xinjiang tour and visit Hemu Village, a winter wonderland where you can take in the arresting views of snow-capped mountains and icy lakes — including Xinjiang’s largest alpine lake, Sayram Lake.
China is known for its sprawling bays but did you know of its colourful Wucai Bay or the calming Sleeping Dragon Bay? You will also get to take a dreamy carriage ride at Swan Lake Nature Reserve, and visit the dark yet stunning Wuerhe Devil’s City in Northern Xinjiang. All these incredible experiences await in Konsortium’s Northern Xinjiang tour.
Step into a Lost Dynasty
On the Silk Road route, you can also rediscover China’s intriguing past. Enter the Mogao Caves, which form a breathtaking stretch of 492 temples over 25km, and the Maiji Mountain Grottoes, where over 7,000 Buddhist sculptures were carved 1,500 years ago in the Later Qin era.
Be taken by the immensity of the Ancient Ruins of Jiaohe, a natural fortress that served humankind from as long ago as 1800 BC.
You’ll also get up close to the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum and the Terracotta Army Museum that are so iconic of Chinese history.

On Konsortium’s Silk Road tour, you’ll be able to connect with China’s minority ethnic groups and interact with the local Turkic ethnic culture at the Uygur Ethnic Village.
You’ll also be given time to enjoy the International Grand Bazaar – the largest bazaar in the world that celebrates Islamic culture, architecture, commerce and entertainment.
