Where you stay

Courtyard by Marriott, Foshan — or similar

Four nights in a standard room, on twin sharing. Indian buffet breakfast with masala chai every morning, four dinners cooked by an Indian chef, and the evening networking cocktails all happen here — so the group eats and meets in one place after a long day at the fair.

The hotel is at Building 38, Haibadong Road, Nanhai District, Foshan, Guangdong 528200, China. Foshan is the city adjoining Guangzhou, where the Canton Fair complex is located — so you are staying just outside Guangzhou rather than in it. The complex at Pazhou is about 25 km away, roughly half an hour by road and longer in fair-week traffic. Look the address up before you book; we would rather you saw it here than found it later.

Why book the group instead of going alone

The parts most first-time buyers get stuck on

Grp

One desk for the whole trip

Flights, hotel, transfers, fair badge and meals are booked as one group by one team, so you are not coordinating five vendors from India yourself.

PAR

Pre-Arrival Registration done for you

Complimentary assistance with PAR — the step that trips up most first-time visitors and can hold you at the counter on arrival.

Badge

Fair badge registration support

Buyer badge registration is handled with you before departure, so you walk into the halls on day one instead of queueing at the registration centre.

One invoice, one GSTIN

Flights, hotel, transfers and meals settle on a single GST invoice from an Indian registered agency — not five separate foreign bookings.

🍛

Indian food for five days

Buffet breakfast with masala chai, and four dinners cooked by an Indian chef. Sourcing trips are long; food should not be the thing that goes wrong.

🇮🇳

Tour manager from India

An experienced tour manager travels with the group from India, plus an English-speaking local guide in Guangzhou for on-ground navigation.

Cancellation charges, in full

Every slab is counted back from the departure date, 13 October 2026 — not from the date you book. For this departure that works out as:

On or before 14 Aug 2026 — 40%  ·  15–24 Aug — 60%  ·  25 Aug–3 Sep — 80%  ·  4 Sep 2026 onwards — 100%

The 30% slab applied only 90 or more days before departure, so that window closed on 15 July 2026 and cannot apply to a booking made now. The booking advance is non-refundable in every situation, and a per-person service charge applies on any cancellation. The exact slab and charge for your booking are restated on your written quotation before you pay anything.

We call back within 30 minutes, 10 AM to 8 PM, Monday to Saturday. Your details are never sold. To measure our advertising, they may be shared with Google in encrypted form only.

Before you pay the advance

The questions buyers actually ask

What if I miss the 6 October booking deadline?

Bookings for this group close on 6 October 2026, seven days before departure. This is a single fixed departure, so a booking confirmed after that date cannot be added to it. If your travel readiness is uncertain, tell us on the call and we will say honestly whether this departure still works for you.

The booking advance is non-refundable and the standard cancellation slab applies from the date you cancel. Travel also remains subject to entry approval by the authorities, which is outside our control.

Why does the page say "from" instead of one final price?

The starting price depends on your departure city: Ahmedabad is ₹1,30,000 (includes 5N/6D with Shenzhen market tour), Mumbai is ₹1,35,000 (4N/5D on Cathay Pacific), and Delhi is ₹1,40,000 (4N/5D on Cathay Pacific). All rates are quoted per person on twin sharing.

Government regulations require 5% GST and 5% TCS (claimable in your annual income tax return) on overseas tour packages. In addition, there is a mandatory driver/guide gratuity of USD 30 per person, and a single-room supplement if you choose not to share a twin room. A booking advance of ₹85,000 per person (non-refundable) is required to secure group airline seats and Marriott hotel inventory.

Tell us your departure city and number of travellers on the form or WhatsApp, and our desk sends you a formal written quotation with GST, TCS and total figures line by line. Nothing is payable until you receive it in writing.

I want to travel alone. Does that work?

Yes, but the quoted price is per person on twin sharing. If you travel alone, or we cannot pair you with a twin-sharing partner, a single-room supplement is payable and it is mandatory. Tell us on the call and we will quote the single-occupancy figure upfront.

What if the group does not reach 30 travellers?

The package is priced on a minimum of 30 adults travelling together. If the group size falls below that, either the price increases or some services change. GD Holidays will inform you before your final payment is due, so you can decide.

Which Canton Fair phase is this, and can I attend a different one?

This departure covers Phase 1 only — electronics and appliances, industrial machinery, hardware and tools, building materials, new energy, and vehicles and spare parts. You get three full fair days: 15, 16 and 17 October.

If you source consumer goods, gifts and home décor (Phase 2) or textiles, footwear, food and medical products (Phase 3), this particular group departure is not the right one. Mention it on your enquiry and the travel desk will tell you what else can be arranged.

Is lunch included on fair days?

No. Breakfast is included every morning at the hotel, and four dinners are cooked by an Indian chef. Lunch is included only on the arrival day, at an Indian restaurant en route to Guangzhou. On the three fair days you buy your own lunch inside or near the complex.

Why does the itinerary route through Hong Kong instead of flying to Guangzhou?

The group flies Cathay Pacific into Hong Kong and continues to Guangzhou by coach or ferry, returning the same way. This is what makes the group airfare arrangement work. The transfer is included in the package in both directions.

Do I get a GST invoice for my business?

Yes. GD Holidays is a GST-registered tour and travel services business (GSTIN 09AOWPT9371H1ZT) based in Greater Noida (West), Uttar Pradesh, and issues an invoice for the package.

What is not covered that I should budget for?

GST and TCS, tips to the driver and guide (about USD 30 per person), lunch on fair days, single-room supplement if applicable, travel insurance if you are 59 or above, any class or room upgrade, and personal spending. The full exclusion list is above.
