Global Exchange Tour Services
Develop your understanding of the Chinese economy and culture
“Reading about the country, watching films and videos, talking with other Americans who have spent time doing business there, spending time with Chinese nationals who are visiting or have moved to this country, are all helpful activities, but they cannot replicate the benefit that comes from on-site immersion. Explaining a culture to the uninitiated in words alone is very difficult. It is rather like explaining what an avocado tastes like to someone who has never eaten one. You can use analogies and adjectives, but your effort will be fruitless. Similarly, you need to experience a culture to understand it.”
The Global Exchange Center offers multi city educational tours for international students, schools, and organizations. Our staff strives to provide experiences that are safe, educational, and enjoyable. We utilize our resources and connections throughout the country to develop tailor made tours for a variety of customers.
Students: University students have a unique opportunity to expose themselves to China by exploring cultural gaps and current trends. Exposure to local businesses, meetings with Chinese students, and culture will provide an invaluable experience for those pursuing both undergraduate and graduate degrees. Let us develop an itinerary to compliment your academic pursuits!
