China Tours from Kazakhstan

Customize Your Trip to the Real China

Occupying a central position on the Eurasian Continent, Kazakhstan has been well linked to the Middle Kingdom over 2000 years ago since the Han Dynasty. It stands strategically on the Silk Road, which facilitated the exchange of goods between China and the Middle Asia and Europe. Along this route, silk, porcelain, tea, and other commodities flowed westward, while massive tall horses, wheat, grapes, pomegranates, sesame, and walnuts were introduced to China. On January 3, 1992, the two states establish ambassador-level diplomatic relations, and they are both the founding members of Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

Since November 10, 2023, the Chinese-Kazakh governments signed the agreement of visa exemption, which means citizens of both countries are exempt from visa requirements for tourism, medical treatment, and business trips. The document grants Kazakh and Chinese citizens visa-free access for up to 30 days with a cumulative total of 90 calendar days within 180 days.

Steeped in mystery and beauty, China beckons travelers from Kazakhstan. Its historical treasures all over the country, like the Great Wall, Forbidden City, Terracotta Army, Grand Canal, and Leshan Giant Buddha, will amaze you with eye-opening experiences. But China offers more than just history. Breathtaking landscapes, from the granite peaks of Yellow Mountain to the ethereal sandstone pillars of Zhangjiajie National Park, the colorful pools of Jiuzhaigou Valley, and the serene Li River, invite nature lovers to lose themselves in nature's embrace.

China isn't just about the glorious past or the natural world, though. It's also a beacon of modern progress and innovation. Cities like Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong boast futuristic skyscrapers, whiz-fast subways, and cutting-edge technology.

This unique blend of tradition and modernity creates a dynamic and unforgettable experience for travelers. And let's not forget the food! Chinese cuisine is a feast for the senses, offering incredible diversity and culinary artistry. Each destination boasts its own regional specialties, guaranteed to tantalize the taste buds of even the most discerning Kazakh foodie.

China is ready to welcome Kazakh travelers with open arms to explore the country - an enchanting blend of old and new, tradition and modernity.

All of hotels reserved by Easy Tour China for you are equipped with western style bathrooms and toilets. Obviously in the more remote areas, toilets may be a little more basic, but clean and simple is common. Whilst sightseeing, toilet facilities at restaurants and local tourist sites can vary and we would recommend that you carry tissues, wet wipes or disinfectant gel with you, "just in case".

Casual clothing is appropriate at all times although clothes that are too revealing are still frowned upon in all over China. Try to pack lightly as your trip may involve an amount of personal baggage handling as porters are often not available except in larger hotels. For security reasons it is essential that your baggage can be locked whilst during air transportation between cities. At times, you may not be able to check into your hotel room immediately or be able to access your main bags. To ensure your comfort, a change of clothes in your hand luggage to coincide with local weather conditions is always handy. All personal toiletries should be taken with you and small packets of tissues or wet wipes are recommended. A small medical kit containing medication to alleviate common ailments is suggested.
