China Ground Partner for Tour Operators
China DMC for Your Clients and Group Programmes
First Landing designs, quotes and operates China itineraries for overseas travel companies and group organizers. One Shanghai-based team coordinates hotels, transport, guides, tickets, dining, special access and on-tour support.
Start with travel window, group size, audience, cities or themes, hotel level, guide language and any mobility or dietary needs.
What you receive
A workable route and defined ground scope
Routing, operating assumptions, hotels, guides, vehicles, rail, experiences, dining and China-side responsibility boundaries.
How it starts
Brief → feasibility → quotation → delivery
We identify route constraints and missing decisions first, then prepare a quotation basis your team can review with the client.
Before a China group quotation
A clear brief. A named operating partner.
Know who operates your programme
Legal entity: 领拓国际旅行社（上海）有限公司
Operating base: No. 1000 Hongsong East Road, Shanghai, China.
First Landing International Travel is the operating brand behind 1st China Trip. Ask our team for the current company profile and the operating information relevant to your procurement review.
Request partner information →Send six decisions with your brief
- Travel month, dates and flexibility
- Group size, audience and guide language
- Cities, trip length and pace
- Hotel level and room mix
- Included services and experience priorities
- Dietary, mobility and accessibility needs
Review the proposal before committing
Your quotation should make the route, included services, operating assumptions, exclusions and China-side responsibilities explicit. Hotel, transport and experience availability are checked against the actual travel window.
For references or past-programme examples, contact our team with your group type so we can identify relevant material for review.
Give prospective partners the same brief. Ask for a service schedule and clear assumptions, then compare the two proposals before treating the totals as equivalent.
Match the operating partner to your market
Different clients. Different China delivery.
Tell us who you sell to and what your clients expect. We shape the China-side brief around those needs, rather than treating every group as the same itinerary.
FIT & families
Priorities: hotel location, room mix, private guiding, manageable transfers and flexibility.
Bring to the brief: ages, walking tolerance, guided/free-time balance and dietary needs.
Compare: one realistic day, room assumptions and what changes if the pace slows.
Cultural & special-interest groups
Priorities: relevant guiding, local experiences, meal timing and smooth multi-city handovers.
Bring to the brief: the theme, group size, language and the moments that make the trip distinctive.
Compare: guide requirements, transfer buffers and a clear service schedule.
Business & study delegations
Priorities: learning objectives, company choices, interpreting and a workable business agenda.
Bring to the brief: industry, delegation profile, preferred regions and travel window.
Compare: proposed visit sequence, interpreting scope and transport/hotel integration.
Explore companies and regions →Special dietary, accessibility or language requirements are assessed against the actual programme. Share the requirement early so that the agreed proposal records the arrangement.
Compare a partner against your client brief →Two Program Types, One Local Operating Partner
Build the client relationship in your market. Let us coordinate the China delivery.
We work behind or alongside overseas agency partners. The brief can begin as a published group concept, an FIT request, an incentive idea, a delegation visit or a study program. We translate that brief into realistic routing, local services, operating checks and a proposal your team can discuss with the client.

Partner Protection
Your client remains your client.
We can work under your agency name or as a disclosed China operating partner. We do not bypass the overseas agency to market directly to clients introduced through that partner.
Scope, communication channels, document branding, payment milestones and on-tour contact roles are agreed before confirmation so both teams know who owns each part of the client experience.
Agree the handover before arrival
Brand: decide what appears on itineraries, arrival signs and guest documents.
Contact: name the agency contact, China-side coordinator and agreed traveller-facing contact.
Changes: agree who approves programme changes or extra costs, and how the China team reports back.
Commercial basis: establish the quoted scope, pricing model and payment/change terms in the written proposal. Do not assume a commission, room policy or service commitment from a general introduction.
Cooperation Workflow
Four steps from partner brief to China delivery.
- 01Share the brief
Market, dates, group profile, program purpose, cities, hotel level and required services.
- 02Check feasibility
We review routing, supplier conditions, visit requirements and information still needed.
- 03Build and confirm
Both teams refine the program, responsibilities, quotation basis and client-facing documents.
- 04Operate and report
Our China-side team coordinates delivery and keeps the agreed agency contact informed.
Corporate Visits, Incentive Travel & Retreats
Add a practical team layer before or after the business program.
First Landing can combine business visits with short regional retreats from Shanghai. The examples below are planning directions, not fixed packages or guaranteed host access.
Lin'an mountain retreat
A two-day nature and team-reset extension with flexible meeting, outdoor and local-food elements.
Bamboo and lake program
A short Jiangsu-Zhejiang countryside option using bamboo scenery, lakeside time and low-pressure group activities.
Private camp weekend
A customizable camp-based program for internal connection, light facilitation and an informal shared evening.
