Overview

The 140th Autumn Canton Fair — the fair’s landmark 70th-anniversary session — runs across three product-focused phases at the Pazhou Complex in Guangzhou. This combined programme lets you attend two consecutive phases on one journey, so you can source across multiple product categories without a second trip.

Between the two fair phases, the itinerary adds a guided city tour, a market-shopping stop, a scenic Pearl River cruise, and a free day for independent sourcing — pairing productive days on the fair floor with comfortable 4-star accommodation and daily Indian dining.

Package Cost

₹1,00,000 per person on a twin-sharing basis, applicable to both Option 01 and Option 02. International airfare is not included; the Chinese visa is included. This is a group departure subject to a minimum number of passengers.
