How Tripolo Works

Tripolo connects you with local guides in China for private days of exploring. You bring the must-sees; your guide brings the know-how.

1. Tell us about your trip

Choose your destination city, travel dates and who's coming along.

2. Pick your guide

Watch intro videos, read guide pages and reviews, and message guides with any questions.

3. Book and share your must-sees

Send a booking request and tell your guide the places you want to see and what you're curious about. Your card is authorised when you send the request and charged once the guide confirms.

4. Plan the day together

Shape the itinerary together in the chat, then confirm it in the app.

5. Meet up and explore

Meet your guide at the spot you agreed. They'll help you get around, bridge the language gap and share local insight.

6. Leave a review

Within 14 days of your trip, leave a review to help other travelers choose.

About pricing

The price you see is the full price for your guide's time. Tripolo's service fee and taxes are included, and nothing is added at checkout.

Tickets, transport, meals and other costs aren't included. You pay them directly to the supplier as you go. That way you're free to choose what you do, without being locked into a fixed package. See Price Explanation & What's Included / Not Included.
