All board!

Plans are underway for the Bakersfield Chamber’s 9-day business mission and tour of China scheduled to depart November 1, 2009.  The tour, all for only $1,799 per Chamber member in good standing ($1,899 per nonmember), is an exceptional value and includes round trip airfare, 4-5 star hotel accommodations (double occupancy), deluxe tour bus, knowledgeable English-speaking tour guides, three full meals each day, fees for all attractions and applicable taxes.

Itinerary highlights include tours of Beijing, Suzhou, Hangzhou and Shanghai. An optional tour package to Xi’an is available for an additional $450.

A non-refundable deposit of $400 is due at the time of registration. Full payment is due by Sept. 1, 2009. Passport and a Chinese travel visa are required. Securing or updating a passport is the traveler’s responsibility. Travelers may obtain their own visas or Citslinc will handle the visa application process for a $145 fee.

This offer is available first to Chamber members and families and will be made available at a later date to members of the community on a space-available basis.

An invaluable pre-tour briefing for all participants will be scheduled at a future date to answer all your questions and familiarize you with all the details you need to know before embarking on your journey.
