GAP is a China river cruise operator that combines the benefits of independent travel with the security of a small group setting. If you seek an active and adventurous vacation, far from the beaten path, turn to GAP Adventures.

GAP Adventures utilizes various modes of transportation on its tours, carefully choosing the transport that best reflects the character of each community. You could find yourself on a vintage bus or train, in a native canoe, a rickshaw, or even on the back of an elephant. You won't have to be exceptionally athletic, but you must be physically fit.

With tours that travel to seven continents, from the glacier-filled waters of Antarctica to the street markets of Kathmandu, group sizes rarely exceed 12 travelers, maintaining the company's commitment to independence, spontaneity, and low-impact, sustainable travel.

Accommodations are chosen based on the same philosophy, and you may find yourself staying anywhere from a family farm to a quaint bed and breakfast to a converted monastery.

Whether touring for six days or for more than 100, GAP Adventures and its guides offer a conscientious, independent and absorbing experience, allowing travelers to make their own choices with the assurance of safety, security and adventure.
