China First Timer

How much will my China trip cost?

Pick your cities, nights and travel style: you get a daily and total range per person, in yuan and your currency, including trains between cities. A sense of scale, not a quote; flights to China are not included.

Built on our typical prices, checked 2 November 2026.

Nights in each city

Hotels are per room, two people sharing (a dorm bed per person on the budget style). Prices rise around Chinese public holidays: see When to go. Cities are visited in the order listed; change the route in the trip planner.
