Our Team
A small team, working closely with you.
Curated China is a small founding team. We work directly with each client, supported by a network of trusted partners on the ground in China.
Our Approach
Why we operate as a small team
We chose to operate as a small founding team rather than scaling fast with junior staff. Every itinerary you see is reviewed by senior designers โ not handed off to entry-level employees.
When you message us, you reach the people who designed your trip. Not a call center. Not a ticketing system. The same team that built your itinerary handles every conversation.
We are intentionally not pursuing scale. Each year we accept a limited number of journeys to maintain the quality we're committed to.
Founding Team
Roles within our team
Founding Designer
Itinerary architecture & client experience
Background in hospitality and luxury travel design. Experienced with client preferences across Middle East, Europe, and North American markets.
Operations Lead
Partner relationships & ground execution
Long-standing relationships with licensed Chinese inbound operators. Native fluency in Mandarin. Direct knowledge of every region we offer.
Concierge Lead
In-trip support & client communication
Multi-lingual support team operating across Asia/Pacific timezones. WhatsApp coverage during all client trips.
We don't currently publish individual team member names and photos. As a young service operating internationally with clients across multiple jurisdictions, we prefer to be evaluated by our work rather than personal profiles. As we accumulate genuine reviews from completed journeys, that will be the foundation of trust between us.
Our Partners
The people who make your trip happen
On the ground in China, your trip is delivered by our partner network โ licensed Chinese inbound tour operators with established track records.
We've personally vetted every operator we work with: their licensing status, their guides' English proficiency, their hotel relationships, their handling of unusual situations. We don't work with operators we wouldn't trust with our own family's travel.
Our partner network covers all major destinations: Beijing, Xi'an, Shanghai, Chengdu, Guilin, Yunnan, Tibet, the Silk Road, and others.
