the driver is very good. he very particular about the time. because in the morning, we need to take turn for the toilet 😂. Then he seems fierce but he actually concern on our time to spend for the whole trip. At the blue moon valley, we need to purchase the ticket there, he guided us to the counter explained to us on how the route and check point for electric car because he was not joining us. Then again, he remind us about the time because we need to go to cable car for Yulong Mountain by 11am. We actually got so caught up with the beautiful scenery and almost past our time. There are too many beautiful spot that for photographs but we have time constraints. Fortunately, our driver checked on us and guide us via WeChat where to go and we arrive at cable car by 11.30am. There, he guided us to the check in gate. During our time at Yulong mountain, the mist is thick and it is so cloudy that we cannot see the mountain peak. And lesson learnt here, please make sure you eat before going up.

Highly recommended! The tour operator was incredibly attentive, accommodating, and always ready to assist. Our driver in Dali and Lijiang Master Ah Xing was excellent and also served as our tour guide, making the trip smooth and enjoyable. Communication through WeChat was seamless, and everything was well-coordinated with no problems at all. If you’re planning a trip to Yunnan, this agency is definitely a great choice. Excellent service from start to finish!

The seating arrangement in the VIP area was excellent, and we were provided with sun hats and bottled water before being seated. The performance, designed by Zhang Yimou, featured performers in ethnic minority costumes, creating a beautiful spectacle. The only downside is that it's weather-dependent; as an open-air theater, a heavy rain would detract from the experience.

Great show, worth seeing. If you select "tomorrow" when booking your tickets, remember to double-check your ticket confirmation details (for example, I booked tickets for July 13th for "tomorrow," but the issued ticket was for July 15th).

This one day tour was a great experience for me and my husband - absolutely breathtaking scenery. The itinerary is well planned, with many scenic rest stops to take photos, grab a snack and use the bathroom. Our driver Mr Li was very professional and friendly and made the trip relaxing and enjoyable.

Smooth and hassle-free experience from start to finish. All tickets and cable car access were pre-arranged, saving lots of time queuing. Perfect choice for first-time visitors to Lijiang.

An extremely pleasant trip!
Tour Guide: First of all, a huge shout-out to our driver-guide, Mr. Duan. As someone from a low-altitude area who frequently gets carsick, I didn't get motion-sick even once despite the countless mountain switchbacks. His driving was extremely smooth and gave us great peace of mind! Not only is his driving top-notch, but he is also very humorous and thoughtful. He anticipated many situations for us, and thanks to his advice, we didn't experience altitude sickness. Good physical health is an essential guarantee for an enjoyable trip! Highly, highly recommended!
Accommodations: The value-for-money tour definitely delivered on its promise; every hotel was arranged very reasonably. My absolute favorite was Jianglv in Wunongding—it's the kind of place I would come back to stay at again and again.
Itinerary: The entire process was very friendly for hiking beginners. It allowed us to experience the wonders of nature without being overly exhausting. For someone who has never been to Shangri-La, just a few days were enough to experience so much of its charm. If I had traveled on my own, I could never have had such a seamless experience. The planner and all the staff in the group chat were very attentive. Thumbs up endlessly!
I will definitely choose KLOOK in the future to experience even more new journeys! I'm already planning to try some more advanced itineraries next time, haha 🤣
(The platform only allows 6 photos, which is far from enough to express everything. Can we please upgrade to 9 or 18 photos in the future?)

Master Shen is reliable and meticulous. He arranged for complete equipment and constantly reminded us of important details. Blue Moon Valley is beautiful and great for photos. Although there were some altitude sickness symptoms when ascending Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, fortunately, Master Shen had us bring an extra oxygen tank, so we still managed to climb to 4,591 meters. Highly recommended!

Tips for travellers planning ahead
Most travellers on Klook book Lijiang experiences about two weeks out, with the earliest planners securing options around five weeks out. That means you can be flexible and often find things a few days beforehand, but in the peak months noted above it's wise to book earlier to lock in preferred tours and show times. Use Klook to compare typical prices and available dates, and book refundable options where offered so you can adjust plans without losing flexibility. Klook booking data informs these patterns and can help you choose dates and experiences with confidence.
