Best travel deal is in China

That is certainly the case with their forthcoming one-week, air-and-land packages to Beijing from San Francisco.

For a few days in November, and then throughout the months of January and February, both companies will be charging only $875 (actually $870 in the case of China Spree) for a one-week stay in Beijing that also includes round-trip airfare from San Francisco on Air China. Since those prices also include a $270 fuel surcharge imposed by the airline, one wonders how in the world they're able to charge so little.

Specifically, both wholesale mlb jerseys china companies fly you back and forth to Beijing from San Francisco (and for add-ons of less than $300 from New York, from which you also can fly nonstop to Beijing), provide you with round-trip airport-to-hotel transfers, put you up for six nights in decent hotels (the Huabin International in the case of China Spree, the Jade Palace in the case of China Focus), provide you with six buffet cheap soccer jerseys from china breakfasts and three lunches, and supply roughly the same amount of escorted sightseeing. And their selling price for the entire package is roughly identical: $875 in nike nfl games the case of China Focus, including tax; $799 in the case of China Spree but an additional $71 for tax, bringing the total to $870.

Because the Chinese currency is so badly undervalued cheap soccer jerseys for sale (the Chinese government raised its value by about 1 per cent earlier this month), the cost of your additional lunches and dinners in Beijing will be very little. So literally, for less than $1,000, you can have a fine look-see at China's impressive capital city (including the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and the Great Wall).

The China Spree package is called "Timeless Beijing" while the China Focus package is "Simply Beijing." Frankly, I would recommend you spring a few hundred extra dollars for a lengthier tour of China going to multiple cities (like Shanghai or Xian, in addition to Beijing); these can be had for as little as $1,388 per person in January and February. But the one-week, ksdejakhf single-city (Beijing) packages offered by these two formidable tour companies are something special: a cheap way to begin your knowledge of China, a superb winter interlude, a glimpse at an important world capital. At the price charged for the features Cheap mlb Jerseys given, these short-duration stays in Beijing this winter are my choice of the best current values in travel today.
