China Family Holidays and China Family Tour Packages 2025/2026

There is no wrong time of the year to travel and enjoy time with your family. China tours are often taken in April, May, September, and October when the weather is more optimal. It’s true that during these months, the skies may be clearer, and the temperatures are more favourable for many excursions on a family trip to China. Still, the country is vast, covering just under 10 million km² and has 14,500km of coastline. With such a large landmass, there are different climate zones, even during the high season. Also, family travel to China has much to gain from being in the country during the off-peak months. If you are considering taking a family trip to China, speak to an experienced travel expert who can advise what time of year would be best for your destinations on your family China tour.
