What Is a China Начальная школа Trip?

Бизнес-туры в Китай | CST — поставщик решений для корпоративных визитов и образовательных туров в Китай для учебных заведений, бизнес-школ и корпоративных руководителей worldwide.

A China primary school trip with CST is a fully supervised, age-appropriate educational programme for 8–13 year olds — not an adult tour shrunk down. Over 5–7 days in Пекин and Shanghai, children experience Chinese food, language, customs and history through hands-on, playful activities — dumpling-making, panda visits, calligraphy and a real Chinese-school exchange. With shorter sessions, higher supervision ratios and 13+ years of experience running school programmes, every element is built around younger learners' attention spans, safety and sense of wonder.

Honest Answers

What Parents & Leaders Ask Us

The Worry We Hear Most

"Is China safe and suitable for primary-age children?"

Yes — this is the question we answer most, and our whole model is built around it. 1:6 supervision, DBS-checked staff, child-safe hotels, dedicated seat-belted coaches and daily parent updates mean children are supervised and supported at every moment. In 13+ years of school programmes we have never had a child-safety incident.

What to Plan Around

A few honest practicalities.

  • Programmes are group-based with a minimum size; smaller groups can join a scheduled cohort.
  • Itineraries are paced for younger children — fewer sites, more depth, earlier evenings.
  • Peak months (Апр–Май, Сен–Окт) fill early; book 2–3 months ahead for best availability.
