Why this route works

  • 5 days, 2 bases — sequenced so travel days fall between sightseeing days and every stop gets real time on the ground, not just transfers.
  • Two countries, one loop is the through-line: Delhi, Guangzhou.
  • China + South Asia — one continuous trip instead of two separate holidays, so you only unpack and re-pack when the route really demands it.
