This is the most expensive single travel product in China. The 80-day trip promo was sold out in just 13 seconds in 2015.
The trip includes a tour of 22 countries and regions including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Botswana, Cuba, Czech Republic, Finland, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, South Africa, the United Kingdom, the United States, Zimbabwe and the two poles, between January 3 and March 23 next year. The travelers will take off from Hong Kong.
Wanderers will also get to experience traveling by air, land and sea, as they take business class flights, cruise ship trips, and luxury train rides. Aside from that, they will also get to experience private helicopter rides and nuclear powered icebreaker trips.
Potential guests will be accommodated by world-class hotels such as Four Seasons and Ritz Carlton and will dine at five-star restaurants like Longitude 131 in Australia's Ayers Rock and London's Hakkasan.
"Chinese tourists have long been interested in traveling abroad, but now they want more enriched and varied experiences in different countries and continents instead of just settling on one or two places," Yu Lan, Ctrip's overseas travel director, told Global Times during an interview in 2012.
