🎉 Highlights in my opinion

  • Train tickets are super convenient 🚄: For independent travel to mainland China, Trip.com is the most convenient way to book high-speed rail tickets, and it supports foreign tourists (you can book without a Chinese ID).
  • The prices are often surprising💰 : I've tried booking a place that's hundreds of Hong Kong dollars cheaper than Booking.com, and it even comes with free breakfast!
  • User-friendly interface📱 : The app has a clear design and supports Traditional Chinese. Payments can be made via credit cards, Alipay, and Apple Pay.

📌 Editor's reminder

  1. Be sure to read the refund and change policy carefully : some low-priced air tickets and hotels are "non-refundable and non-changeable".
  2. Keep up the price comparison habit : Although Trip.com often has low prices, it is still recommended to compare with Expedia and Booking.com.
  3. Customer service experience : Trip.com provides 24-hour customer service, but you may need to be patient during peak season.
