Things to do in Changsha

it was an exceptional journey. going from the usual Japan, Korea, Australia to China Hunan. The plan provided and the things we did was extraordinary , especially when we had 13 pax, 6 adults and 7 kids. The itinerary was well planned and spaced out wonderfully.

Our tour guide was 谢宇, and he was very nice and accommodating towards us as we were the only non PRCs in the tour group. The 1st night in Changsha was free roam and a night stay. The tour guide met up with us on the 2nd day, the zjj route we did was the grand valley so it was the glass bridge, VR, zipline/elevator, slide and boat. Just fyi that there’s 2 boat rides and need to walk about 3km+. There’s the charming xiangxi show, if you like Chinese opera and theatrics you should go. The tianmen 山 was just a lot of escalators and cable car ride back to the entrance. Furong town and Fenghuang is more olden city vibes and they provided FOC miao outfit. We paid +$80 per pax for the activites, $30 for room upgrade, $40 for makeup and photoshoot. (sgd) It’s a great tour and I would recommend this, the hotels are decent and food is good. They walk v quickly so if you tend to slow down and take photos then you’ll be left behind. Cuz we were always the last to catchup as we were vlogging.

tour guide: My tour guide (Mr Peng) was 100% on the ball from the start, he looked out for everyone of us before during n even after the tour. He warn us of some unnecessarily spending money. whenever we need more food, he will help us order. knowledge of the tour guide was top notch accomodation options: hotel is well booked n planned itinerary: everything was space out well

We booked Hunan Zhangjiajie 5-Day Comfort Tour. Our tour guide林温柔 was the best ever! Her deep knowledge, clear communication, and warm, approachable manner made the trip incredibly smooth, interesting and enjoyable. We managed to take a lot of nice photos with stunning scenery. Thanks to her excellent service. She is highly recommended.

The route in the description is approximate. The sites are visited in a different order. The guide is great and always available. We are Russian and communicated with the guide through a translator in WeChat. We were unlucky with the weather; we were there October 17-19, and it was cloudy and raining. In the "Avatar" mountains, nothing was visible, which was very disappointing. The hotel in the program was good, but the food was purely Chinese; for Europeans, there were eggs and vegetables. I recommend the tour, but check the weather forecast.
