On the 22nd July 2009 a total eclipse of the sun will be visible from a narrow corridor across the Earth. The 2009 eclipse is especially exciting as it will offer the chance to experience some of the longest durations of totality possible, up to almost 6 minutes on our tours in China.

We have selected some of the best viewing locations in China, so you will have the opportunity to combine a unique celestial event with an exploration of a fascinating region of the world where lands of ancient cities and beautiful scenery are populated by diversehreend ancient cultures.

We do have a few spaces remaining on three of our trips. The 27 day ‘Silk Road Odyssey & Eclipse 2009’ trip takes in not only the eclipse and China but also Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, our 17 day ‘Yangtse, Yangshuo & Eclipse 2009’ offers the chance to see Cosmopolitan Hong Kong & Shanghai, the rural idyll of Yangshuo and a cruise through the “Three Gorges” and our 23 day 'Trans-Siberian & Eclipse 2009' combines the eclipse with the world's most famous long distance rail journey.
