Dear China Holidays:

My wife & I safely returned home from our trip to Australia & China.
We enjoyed our time in China very much and compliment you that all the arrangements worked well.
Our guide in Beijing, Nikki, was outstanding in her knowledge, her friendly manner and her care for our well-being. It was impressive to see so much in the time available. .......

Driving Licenses and Restrictions

Foreigners who want to drive in China require an International Driving Permit; this can be arranged at the local PSB. However, there are extensive restrictions on inter-city driving. Cars can be rented in Hong Kong and Macau relatively hassles free. If you're renting a car in Beijing or Shanghai, you'll be restricted within the city limits. Information on drivers-for-hire can be found in ex-pat entertainment magazines.
