Yunnan's very own "Disneyland"! At Colorful Yunnan Happy World, I found the dream and pride of my hometown! As a Yunnan native who has visited numerous theme parks both domestically and internationally, this experience right in my backyard completely amazed me—it's not just an amusement park, but an immersive feast with Yunnan culture at its heart! If you come to Yunnan, be sure to dedicate a whole day to it!

We planned about 30% of our Yunnan trip on our own and booked this tour for the rest of our journey from Dali to Lijiang and Shangri-La. Our tour advisor, Sally, was incredibly patient, and responsive. She answered all of our questions before the trip, and two days before departure we were added to a WeChat group with Sally and our driver, which made communication very easy throughout the trip. A special thank you to our driver, Mr. He Guo Zheng, who truly made our journey even more enjoyable. He was always punctual and constantly checked in on us to make sure we were comfortable. His kindness and attentiveness made us feel well taken care of from start to finish. The scenery throughout the trip was absolutely breathtaking. Every destination had something unique to offer, from majestic mountains and peaceful lakes to charming old towns.

Our driver made our Yunnan trip absolutely exceptional. He was incredibly accommodating throughout the journey, always patient and attentive to our needs. Beyond just driving, he gave us fantastic recommendations for places to visit that weren't in any guidebook including introducing the historical context. He also went the extra mile by checking weather conditions daily with his fellow drivers, and based on that, he proactively advised itinerary changes to make sure we caught the best scenic views at the right time.. He was also very proactive about advising us on how to prepare for the 4000m high altitude, which really helped us acclimatize comfortably. The biggest highlight was his flexibility—when he realized our train departure on the last day was much earlier, he reworked our itinerary on the spot so we could still enjoy a full morning without any stress. Reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind—we couldn't have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend!"

Everything was well organized and on time. We visited Dianchi Lake first, then had lunch, and ended the day at the Stone Forest. I joined this tour with my elderly mother, who uses a cane and had always wanted to visit the Stone Forest. We only had one full day in Kunming, so this tour was perfect for us. Our guide Luosang was kind, patient, and waited for us while my mom walked slowly, especially in the rain. Even though we don't speak Chinese, everything went smoothly. Thank you for helping fulfill my mom's wish. We had a wonderful and memorable day!

Our guide Ahyan was 11/10 as she shared with us everything we needed to know about Yunnan from tea, silver, nature, food, way of life, economy, property, marriage, history and ethnic groups within a short span of time. She is funny but firm in managing the time and group. Offered to take photos at major spots. Even though it rained heavily in the afternoon at Jiuxiang scenic area, she problem solved and ensured that everyone had a good time and was safe. Exceeded expectations and had a memorable day.

No visit to Kunming would be completed without attending this performance. Be enthralled by the production, props, costumes, choreography, music and movements - all simply out of this world. Would love to watch it again, another time

We booked for 3 pax for April 2026. 7 others joined us to make up the group. Itenery covered as mentioned with sufficient free time given to explore the places we visited. Klook handled the picking up from the Train Station on Arrival to sending us to the Airport for Departure, promptly and timely at our schedule. Kudos. In this respect, hats off to the coordinator Winnie (小小舟) for doing the planning work for us. She had patience and guided us along from the point we made contact, enquired about packages, the details in between, to our booking, arrival and departure effortlessly. For the tour, we travelled on the same vehicle throughout our journey. For the first 3 days of the tour, we had an amicable and pleasant guide with the name 杨雪梅. We knew at once she had passion for this job. Thanks for the great photos & good angles despite the crowds and also information that helped us appreciate our tour better. The next 3 days, Maka was our guide. He was loud but respectful & helpful.
