Mission

The Dragon Trip aims to show backpackers the REAL China. We give them a chance to meet other like minded travellers and make a positive impact to the places they visit. We ensure maximum value for money and safety at all times.

History

The Dragon Trip was launched by travellers, for travellers, in response to the lack of affordable tour options for young backpackers who can’t speak Mandarin.

Ownership

The Dragon Trip Pte Ltd is a British owned and managed company, registered in The United Kingdom. After forming a partnership with them in 2011, The Dragon Trip is part owned by CRCC Asia, one of the leading companies catering for young foreigners in China.

Thanks

The Dragon Trip would like to thank the following:

• Norman Chow for his wonderful photographs. Norm has been travelling for the past 12 years and has always been documenting his experiences through the lens. His passion to capture those defining moments has progressed to being able to give justification within those shots. Today Norm is a fireman on the west coast of Canada and spends a few months each year travelling to new and distant countries. As an amateur photographer, Norm is constantly learning new skills and techniques to better him. If you like any of his photos or missed that shot for your own memory of your trip and would like a copy, please feel free to contact him at normchow8@gmail.com. You can see Norm’s other work at either Picasaweb or Flickr.
