Our Philosophy

Founded in 2019, Marco Polo believes that true travel is built on understanding, not speed. We design immersive journeys across China that allow travelers to slow down and connect deeply with culture, people, and place. From practicing Tai Chi in the Wudang Mountains to exploring living heritage and cuisine in Chongqing, and cruising the Yangtze River with context and care, every route reflects our respect for authenticity. With experienced multilingual teams and a commitment to thoughtful service, we have proudly welcomed over 100,000 international travelers on journeys of lasting meaning.
