A Chinese travel agency is offering tours designed for couples who are on the verge of splitting up.

The agency in Harbin, in Heilongjiang province, charges couples the equivalent of £1,350 for a five-day tour of Hainan Island, reports the Heilongjiang Morning Post.

"If it's destiny for us to break up, then let's have more romantic memories than painful ones," runs an ad for the holidays.

The agency said they had already received bookings from many quarreling couples - and hopes the breaks could persuade some to reconsider.

"The whole tour will be very intimate. A separate tour guide and vehicle will be allocated for each couple," said a company spokesman.

The agency also offers other themed breaks, including a 'bad mood tour' and an 'indulgent tour' and says they are proving very popular, especially with younger customers looking for something different.
