Tuniu's business tours normally require at least 10 people. The team is provided with an exclusive tour guide and door-to-door transport services based on requirements such as departure time, city, budget, accommodation and conference needs. Twenty-four hours after submitting a requirement table a customer service representative contacts the team leader to provide several tailormade tour options.

Summer customizations include cruise liners, which are becoming more popular. European aristocrats originally led this travel style at the end of the 18th century. Cruises have become more and more popular around the world as they offer relaxation, top services, ample social time and privacy.

Tuniu designed a tailormade tour that offers travelers a four-to-five-day journey on a cruise liner to the Three Gorges landscape belt at the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

The journey includes ample leisure-time surrounded by attractive landscapes along the river, cuisine specifically created to relieve summer heat, as well as exclusive and private conference halls on the liner. The average budget per person for the journey is 1,999 yuan ($325.6).

For business groups that want to travel overseas but not too far during the summer, another highly recommended tour is to South Korea's Jeju Island, the so-called "Hawaii in South Korea".

The four-day tour includes a taste of traditional spicy and fiery South-Korean food.

Local hotels that serve business travelers can provide spacious conference rooms and other services for team building and relaxation.

Jeju Island's climate helps travelers forget the summer heat and enjoy the natural landscape.

The average charge for the tour is 5,000 yuan per person.

For business groups with more money to spend Tuniu suggested going further away to somewhere like Australia.

With a budget of about 18,000 yuan per person, groups can enjoy a seven-night and nine-day journey to almost all the renowned tourism destinations along the eastern coast of the country.

Sydney Blue Mountain National Park has vast areas of jungle and subtropical rainforests. Business travelers will feel a world away from busy, crowded cities and the pressures of work when they step into the picturesque natural landscapes and breathe in fresh fragrances from plants and trees.
