About LocalKey
China, unlocked by local specialists.
LocalKey is the custom-travel brand of Guangdong Xingcheng International Travel Agency Co., Ltd. Established in 2009, our parent company holds China travel-agency qualifications for inbound and outbound travel. We pair that operating foundation with a more personal way to plan China today.
Our position
“Most travel companies treat China as one stop on a global menu. We treat China as the menu.”
LocalKey · Backed by a parent travel agency established in 2009
Why we exist
China deserves a specialist, not a tab in a menu.
01
Single-destination focus
We only do China. That means deeper supplier relationships, sharper route knowledge, and no divided attention across seven destinations. When something changes on the ground — visa policy, a new rail route, a regional festival — we know before it hits the travel press.
02
Backed by a licensed agency
LocalKey is backed by Guangdong Xingcheng International Travel Agency Co., Ltd. Our parent company was established in 2009 and is qualified for inbound and outbound travel, giving every trip a direct operating base in China.
03
Built for modern travellers
Most China travel content is written for the 2010s visitor — slow, cautious, and over-explained. Our travellers are experienced international travellers choosing China intentionally. They want clear information and confident execution, not a tour guide narrative.
What we offer
Two ways to travel China with us.
Self-Guided Tours
Your route. Our logistics. No hand-holding required.
We handle the rail passes, accommodation, and day-by-day structure. You travel independently, with a plan that actually works.
ExploreTailor-Made Tours
A trip built around what you actually want.
Start with a conversation. We design an itinerary from scratch — dates, pace, focus, accommodation grade — and manage every booking.
ExploreHow we work
Four steps from inquiry to departure.
01
Conversation
You tell us when, who, and what matters. We ask the questions most travellers haven't thought to ask yet.
02
Design
We draft a full itinerary — days, accommodation, logistics — and walk you through it. Adjustments are part of the process.
03
Deposit
A deposit secures your dates and triggers booking. We manage every supplier directly.
04
Travel
We are reachable during your trip. Issues on the ground get handled by people who know the destination.
