Who We Are
China Tours Direct is supported by the strong local expertise and destination resources of Chongqing Youth Business International Travel Agency Co., Ltd., one of Western China’s leading inbound and ground-handling travel service providers.
Founded in 1998 from the Yangtze River Three Gorges tourism market, the company has built over 28 years of first-hand local experience in Chongqing and Southwest China. It has been recognized among China’s Top 100 tourism enterprises and has served more than 10 million domestic and international travelers. With 52 branches, multiple cultural tourism subsidiaries, scenic-area ticketing operation companies, and long-term partnerships with major attractions, the company offers a solid foundation for high-quality China travel services.
As a Chongqing-based local operator, the company has deep access to the region’s most iconic tourism resources, including Wulong Karst, Hongyadong, the Yangtze River Three Gorges, Jiuli City, Chongqing river cruises, Dazu Rock Carvings, mountain-city landmarks, hotpot culture, and surrounding destinations across Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Xi’an, Beijing, Henan, and beyond.
What makes the company especially competitive is its fully self-operated ground-handling system. Key travel services — including transportation, accommodation, dining, tour guides, ticketing, airport and station transfers, multilingual support, and emergency assistance — are managed directly by its own teams. This “zero subcontracting” model helps ensure consistent service standards, faster response, better quality control, and reliable support for international travelers and overseas partners.
The company operates a professional travel service network with more than 50 luxury tourist coaches, over 20 high-end business vehicles, 100+ full-time certified tour guides, self-operated hotels and restaurants, and direct cooperation with over 90% of major 5A and 4A scenic areas in Chongqing and Southwest China. Its inbound travel team provides itinerary planning, quotations, operations, multilingual customer service, and 24-hour support for global partners.
Building on this strong local foundation, China Tours Direct is designed to connect international travelers directly with authentic, well-organized, and locally supported China travel experiences. With Chongqing as its core destination, the brand aims to introduce travelers to the magic of China’s mountain city while also expanding into Chengdu, Guizhou, Xi’an, Yunnan, Beijing, Henan, and other remarkable destinations across China.
