Hey, I’m a solo female traveller early 30s, been to a few countries in Asia but never China. I’m thinking like 8–10 days sometime in 2026. Cities I really want to see: Beijing, Chongqing and Shanghai. Maybe also a side trip to Suzhou or somewhere with old water towns. I feel more safe and comfortable if I can join a group instead of going totally solo. Looking for easygoing people (late 20s–40s) who like culture, street food, some walking, but not party all night. Anyone with similar plan, write below 🙂
Hola! I’m from Spain and I’m thinking about 2 weeks in China maybe next spring (March/April). My idea is start in Shanghai, then go inland to Chongqing and after that maybe down to Guilin / Yangshuo for the mountains and river. I’m not super strict with dates, just no winter. I like food, local neighborhoods, a bit of hiking, not really nightlife. If there are other solo travelers (30s more or less) who don’t want to travel alone, maybe we can make a small group and plan one route together
Hey everyone, I’m planning to go to China next year, thinking maybe end of May or June. I really want to see Chongqing and Chengdu, maybe also Zhangjiajie if time is ok. My friends are all busy so looks like I might go alone, but I’d prefer to join a small group, 4–8 ppl or so. I like spicy food, street markets and walking a lot during the day, but I still want decent hotel, not hostel. Anyone with similar idea? Maybe we can arrange something together.
I’m checking if anybody wants to travel together in southwest China around Sep/Oct. I’m interested in Chongqing, Chengdu (pandas!) and maybe Jiuzhaigou if it’s open and not too crowded. I’m okay with simple guesthouses, just need clean place to sleep. Not into shopping, more into nature, hotpot, and taking photos. If someone is planning similar, message here and maybe we can sync dates and make a group
Hi guys, solo traveler here. I’m looking at China around October, flexible with dates. First time there, so I wanna do the “classic” stuff in Beijing and Xi’an and then fly to Chongqing for a few days (hotpot and river views look amazing). I don’t really want to plan everything on my own and be alone all the time, so I’m hoping to find a few people to share the trip and costs. If someone has similar plan, reply here and we see if our dates match
