Traveling the world with your own car is a dream many self-drive enthusiasts share. But in reality, cross-border paperwork and long-distance journeys are not always possible for everyone. If you don’t want the hassle of complicated procedures yet still wish to experience the joy of driving abroad with your family and friends, renting a car upon arrival is the perfect solution.

What makes it even easier today is China’s new visa-free entry policy for travelers from a growing list of countries. This means that more visitors can now enjoy the freedom of a self-drive holiday in China without the burden of lengthy visa applications – simply fly in, pick up your car, and start exploring.

In China, China Auto Tours is here to prepare everything for your journey. From arranging a reliable vehicle and a temporary Chinese driving license to securing permits for restricted regions such as Tibet, we take care of the details so you can focus on the road ahead. According to your personal interests, we will design a tailor-made route—whether it’s cultural discovery, natural landscapes, or off-the-beaten-path exploration. And if you prefer professional guidance along the way, our guided tours can also provide expert support and local knowledge.
