Independent China trips, planned around real people
Choose every place you genuinely want, add your nights and preferred pace, then see where the time fits—or conflicts. Nothing is removed, and the same brief goes to a human planner if you contact us.

What personal planning changes
The first result only checks destination stay time. Human planning then tests transport, entry and exit cities, dates and the details that make the trip work.

Ways to work with Homeground
You can use the free wishlist check without contacting us. When you want human planning, start with the option closest to what you already have.
We test the route for pressure points, fragile transfers and hotel moves, then show what to keep, move or remove.
We turn your cities, nights and constraints into a workable order, night allocation and day skeleton.
We define a written scope around the actual trip, including only the planning, coordination or local support you want us to handle.
US$69 and US$129 cover the standard scope: up to 10 travel days, 4 overnight bases and one shared route for 1–4 travellers. Full-trip support is quoted separately.
The studio
From the first conversation, your lead planner listens to how you want to experience China, then brings the cities, transport and pace into one coherent journey. You have one person who knows the trip from beginning to end, backed by a team bringing first-hand experience into the same plan.
Who you are travelling with, what matters most and how you want each day to feel become the starting point—not an afterthought.
From the first conversation to the finished plan, your lead planner keeps the cities, transport, pace and priorities connected.
The team brings relevant planning and on-the-ground experience into the same itinerary, so it works beyond the page.
What to know next
The first check finds the useful conflict; a person handles the decisions.
No fixed group package is required. We plan for solo travellers, couples, families, friends and private groups, then shape the route around that party.
A planner receives the same wishlist, nights, party, pace and priorities you entered. We then check dates, arrival and departure points, transport, walking needs and non-negotiables before detailed planning or a quote.
Homeground shapes the journey, then checks suitable local delivery after the real details are clear. Before anything is confirmed, the service scope and delivery partner should be clear in writing.
Yes. Walking distance, stairs, early starts, room setup, food needs and recovery time are planning inputs—not small notes added at the end.
Keep them. When we reply, tell us the fixed airports, dates and must-visit places; the automatic result does not pretend to solve the final order.
