Great weather, quick/convenient transportation in a nine-seater van, and we were recommended to a better viewing platform. Eating within the scenic area is a bit expensive, and there are no single-person meal options.

The Longji Rice Terraces are a stunning earth sculpture. Under the sun, they look like a mountain of mirrors; in the mist, they resemble a fairyland. The lines are like verses flowing for thousands of years. They are truly beautiful.

Great experience! The guide didn't speak English but contacted me the day before to let me know about the hotel pick-up. The tour was true to the description, only the group preferred to go to the rice fields by van rather than by cable car, which meant a small extra charge. I recommend it!

I was the only foreigner on a Chinese tour, but they used a translation app to give me information about the meeting time and other details. I was also able to exchange WeChat contacts beforehand, which made me feel secure about participating. I'm very satisfied and highly recommend it.
