Our Buyer Friends
PandaJourney is a highly curated, destination-focused B2B event designed to introduce China as a luxury travel destination to international buyers who may otherwise face challenges in accessing or understanding the destination, due to language barriers, cultural differences, or limited travel exposure.
As such, our hosted buyer program prioritises those who are less familiar with China and are seeking to build new knowledge, partnerships, and confidence in promoting the destination. While we welcome applications from luxury travel professionals of all backgrounds, we may not be able to accept applications from those who, by virtue of their professional or personal background, already hold a significant advantage in understanding and accessing China as a luxury travel destination. This may include those who:
– are based in China or operate a China-focused DMC,
– exclusively sell China as a destination, or
– Currently or previously hold a PRC passport regardless of current place of residence.
We truly appreciate your interest in PandaJourney, and thank you for your kind understanding of our selection criteria. Our goal is to create the greatest impact by opening doors for those who need it most.
*Due to limited availability, each buyer is eligible to participate in the event only once every two years.

Working with
The Best of China
Together with our exhibitors and sponsors, we have devoted great effort to creating a series of exceptional summits — a shared contribution that reflects our collective commitment to Inbound Luxury China.
Unfortunately, we have not seen the same willingness to invest in the inbound travel market from those outside our exhibiting partners; therefore, we do not encourage buyers to participate in any of their activities, including accommodations, or FAM trips.
