Italy Adventure Club and Great Wall Adventure Club

---

Italy Adventure Club is a division of Great Wall Adventure Club based in the United States with offices in Tokyo, Beijing, Shanghai, and Vancouver. 

Great Wall Adventure Club was established in 2003. For 19 years Great Wall Adventure Club has presented the wonder, mystery, and excitement of "the middle kingdom" to visitors and daring explorers from all over the world.   

Our contributions have not gone unnoticed. In 2008 when the world had its attention focused on Beijing for the Summer Games, Great Wall Adventure Club was right in the thick of the excitement. During that time, we were proud to be the official tour guides for numerous illustrious groups, including the members and families of the U.S. Softball team, the U.K. Swimming and Diving team, the Canadian Rowing team, and other groups from  Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. Of course, we were also widely used among the throngs of international fans who came to Beijing for the Summer Games.

Because of our expertise, NBC, for their own televised hike on the Great Wall, even enlisted our company to show them their way on the wall during the 2008 Beijing Summer Games. Great Wall Adventure Club has also continued to offer top-class service to the Beijing Winter Games spectators and other groups, although no audiences were allowed to attend in Beijing.    

We have the most efficient communication channel available to the travel industry in China, Japan, Australia, United States, Canada, UK, France, and Italy. While most travel agents take off weekends and nights, we don't. We understand our customers can't afford to wait for more than 15 hours or even 72 hours to hear back from us. And when a client books a tour, it usually involves frequent contacts. Only Great Wall Adventure Club can respond to clients within one hour or almost instantly. 

In the just-completed Paris Summer Games, we had over 1,180 hotels booked for spectators from around the world. In addition, we have made over 530 transfers between CDG and hotels within Paris, and between the city and Versailles. www.parissummertravel.com shows what we did for the Summer Games.  

Great Wall Adventure Club has received the award of Travel & Hospitality Award 2022. Travel & Hospitality awards is a global recognition program for the travel industry recognising the very best hotels, tour operators, experience providers, spa & wellness facilities, restaurants, and technology and innovation companies. 

"Great Wall Adventures were SOOOO easy to deal with. Vivian is so prompt with her replies and helpful. We were able to do e-transfers from our bank in Canada to their bank account in Canada, which was easy. I asked her about trying to get train tickets for the overnight train to Xi'an, and on the weekend, Great Wall Adventure Club went to the train station and bought us tickets! They were ready for us when we arrived in China. We planned our trip to China by contacting different companies for private tours for the different places we were going to visit. While most of the companies were good, Great Wall Adventure Club stood out above the rest regarding their customer service, advice, and quality of services offered and guides."
