By understanding Chinese tourists’ unique needs and preferences, cross-border businesses can effectively enter the Chinese market and promote company brands in China. This article offers insightful information about the demographics of Chinese tourists and marketing strategies for the Chinese tourism market. Let’s get started!

Demographics

Firstly, millennials having more disposable income and a greater desire for individualized travel experiences, make up a significant share of Chinese tourists. Secondly, the rapidly aging population in China leads to the rising demand from the elderly, looking for stress-free vacations. For that reason, senior tourism should also be in a consideration.

Chinese Tourists Booking Patterns

Given that 69% of Chinese travelers rely on Chinese platforms for information and inspiration when planning their trips, online platforms have a big influence on their choices. Furthermore, these tourists also prefer to tailor their journeys based on personal preferences. Examples of this include visiting niche destinations, trying local cuisines at distinctive eateries, or partaking in exclusive activities like hot air balloon rides or orchestra performances.
