China the nation and its civilization dates back to 5000 years ago. We are among the largest developing countries of the world, with many large cities like Beijing, shanghai, Guangzhou , developing at a very rapid pace with state of the art facilities and infrastructure that is continually evolving and expanding, with ongoing urbanization of many midsize and small cities all over the country. china currently has some of the most advanced railway infrastructures in the world with high speed and bullet train capability, our highways are continuously evolving, the recent opening of the highway between Yaan and Xichang in Sichuan Province is among the world most impressive ground transportation infrastructure in the world completed in 3 yrs only in one of the most hostile environments man kind can imagine, yet the chinese people showed their resilience and brilliance in innovation and determination to build the impossible, all this reflects the rapid pace of development and change in china currently underway. You might have a subversive impression about China after seeing our country.
China is a country of extreme beauty in the northwest, and mellow beauty of water towns in the east, multitude of ethnic groups in the southwest, and bright civilization in the middle of china , and of course the large modern metropolitan areas of the east and southeast.
By working at this industry for 15 years, since from my first inspection trip to Yangtze River Cruise in Jul,2004, 15 years ago, I had travelled most parts of my country. The most experience I am pound of was 3 days trekking on Mt Kalaish in Ngari area in Tibet in 2017. The average altitude is over 5000km and the highest point is 5630m. I traveled with a group and the members came from different countries, I saw wild animals in the vast area, saw the cleanest and the most beautiful star sky in China I never seen before, saw the simple and clean heart of Tibetan people as the clean sky, and also the devout of the religion from some of the prayers. I knew what is adventure after this trip.
I was always looking for the places where are not so commercialized, quiet but vivid in culture, where can help you know how is the real China, and also try different ways to help you experience more, like visiting the local family's house, join a dinner with them, plan the rice seeding with farmer in the field, or just join the square dancing with Chinese Dama.
I enjoy working in tourism industry although 15 years past, my passion still there, because each people travel with a good mood at the beginning, if you give them good services, treat them as friends, you would gain more than you expected. I quite enjoy having friends from different corners of the world, share the life dots with them from time to time, it gives me warm and touching sometimes.
Traveling, reading, love are the 3 most important things in my life. Plan the trip for my clients, just feel like I am also on the way. Come and give me a chance to show you my passion, professionalism, and you would gain one more friend from China.

I first met Janet back in 2017 after searching for an experienced and reputable travel agent to arrange a trip to China from Australia for my husband and myself. It was the many favourable comments I read via Tripadvisor that led to our initial contact, many glowing reports of her expertise and professional manner in the travel industry.
Janet proved herself extremely efficient in the planning of our itinerary, is endowed with a wealth of knowledge regarding what is best to see and experience in China from a foreigners perspective, made many excellent suggestions we had not initially considered. Janet remained in constant contact with us throughout the planning stage, answered our many questions and queries without delay, Janet certainly goes the extra mile…….we realised we were in the most capable and experienced hands.
Regrettably an unexpected diagnosis of cancer necessitated cancellation of that China trip just three weeks out from its onset. Janet assisted in recovering the monies already paid and made the cancellation process easy for me, something that was greatly appreciated.
Janet and her family visited Australia October 2018, we were delighted to have them as our house guests for a week. This enabled me to observe Janet at close quarters, there is much to admire: hardworking, honest, strong moral fibre, warm and engaging personality, sound code of ethics. We became firm friends before her departure.
We now intend to visit China in September 2020, I guess it will come as no surprise to many that Janet and her company (China Adventure Specialist) will once again arrange this holiday for us. If you are looking for a superb trip to China, competitively priced with an experienced travel agent at the helm I would highly recommend Janet Chan.
I'm a very enthusiastic traveler used to lead groups around the world in all the continents and in very different context and Janet has been one of the best tour and services provider I have ever met. We had the chance to travel in really genuine places, meeting nice people and living heartbreaking experiences. It was possible thanks to the knowledge and professional competence of Janet and her staff. In any moment of the tour we felt like we have been in a family rather than we were just customers. I will recommend Janet travel company to any of my friends that will traveling in China.
