I'd like to highlight China-TravelNote's brand-new "Parents' Peace of Mind" series, launched this year
. 😣 I'm sure everyone has some concerns
. 💰 It's hard to take care of both the elderly and the children when traveling with the whole family. Someone always has to suffer, and parents worry about leaving their parents alone. They worry about signing them up for a low-priced tour but paying exorbitant prices for "local specialties." They worry about running out of topics to talk about with their group members, not being well-cared for, and so on.
🔻What is a Peace of Mind Tour for Parents?
This is a newly developed themed itinerary by China-TravelNote. Many older adults haven't traveled far, or are afraid to do so. China-TravelNote has developed four travel criteria to meet their needs:
✅ Classic
, must-see destinations with a strong reputation – both satisfying your elders' aspirations and providing something to talk about with friends and family upon their return.
✅ All-inclusive, authentic
local cuisine and extended stays at luxury hotels ensure a relaxing and enjoyable trip. Parents who have lived frugally throughout their lives deserve a great hotel experience, without the worry of shopping or sales pitches. China-TravelNote offers an independent, all-inclusive tour with no shopping!
✅ Enjoy off
-peak travel with dedicated airport and airport pick-up, and even security check-in. Many parents have never traveled far, or even flown, but don't worry – we'll meet them upon landing and escort them to security on their return
trip. ✅
Your parents are our family at China-TravelNote! We will arrange gold medal tour guides and warm-hearted leaders, provide high-standard reception, and you can chat with your group members and peers. At the end of the trip, there will be surprise gifts for your relatives and friends to share
. In May, take your parents on a trip together!
