China for Culture Hounds

With the Olympics just around the corner, fast-growing China is bursting on the world scene. Still, the sheer size of the country – not to mention the language barrier – can make it daunting to explore alone, even for the most courageous of travelers. Intrepid Travel solves this problem with vacation packages geared specifically to individuals with multiple departure dates throughout the year. Adventurous travelers set out in groups (max 12) for two-week journeys from Shanghai to Beijing, taking in the nation’s modern and historical sites, with stops along the way to party in cosmopolitan Shanghai, absorb the Buddhist wisdom of Shaolin, ogle the ancient Xi’an’s Terracotta Warriors, meet the nomads of Xiahe, and enter Beijing’s Forbidden City. The only caveat is that attendees do have to share a room; it's a good excuse to make a new friend.
