Xiamen Tourism
Private Xiamen & Fujian Trips
Choose a Xiamen Tour That Fits Your Time, Pace and Travel Style
Planning a trip to Xiamen? Start with the kind of trip you want, not with a long list of places.

Short Stay
Xiamen + Gulangyu
Best for 2–3 days with city highlights, Gulangyu Island, Nanputuo Temple, local food and coastal views.

Tulou, Quanzhou & Wuyishan

Trip Planning Logic
How to Choose the Right Xiamen Tour
A good Xiamen trip should feel easy to follow. You do not need to see every place in one visit. What matters more is choosing a route that fits your time, pace, group and reason for coming to Fujian.
For a short stay, Xiamen city and Gulangyu Island are enough. For culture-focused travelers, Fujian Tulou, Quanzhou and Mount Wuyi can add more depth. For overseas Chinese families, a heritage route may need time for village visits, local contacts and translation.
