Review for: Zhenxuan Accommodation (Yubeng is designated to stay at Muchen Mountain House)

The trip to Yubeng in Yunnan is undoubtedly the most colorful chapter in my life, and the leader of all these wonderful experiences is the unforgettable tour guide Tashi. He is not only a guide who is proficient in geography, history and culture, but also a spiritual mentor. With his warm smile like the sun and knowledge as deep as the night sky, he has added endless colors and depth to this trip. Tour guide Tashi seems to be a messenger sent by nature to the world. His love and awe for Yubeng flows in every sentence of his explanation, making even the most inconspicuous stones and the most ordinary flowers become vivid and full of stories under his narration. His explanation is both rigorous as a scholar and romantic as a poet. While enjoying the visual feast, people also get unprecedented spiritual nourishment. What is even more valuable is that Tashi treats every tourist as kindly as a family member. His patience and care make this trip full of warmth and touching. Whether it is the hardship of crossing mountains and ridges or the leisurely tranquility of the lakeside, Tashi can always give encouragement and help in time to ensure that every traveler can leave unforgettable memories in this magical land. In short, this trip to Yubeng, Yunnan, allowed us to feel the magnificence of the beautiful rivers and mountains of our motherland and became the most precious wealth in our lives.

Review for: Zhenxuan Accommodation (Yubeng is designated to stay at Muchen Mountain House)

During the fantastic journey to Yubeng, Yunnan, we saw the magnificent scenery of Shangri-La and the stunning golden mountain in Yubeng. The beautiful scenery relieved the fatigue of hiking. On the way, I also felt the guide Tashi's love for this land, which is not only reflected in his familiarity with every trail and every mountain, but also in his explanation that cleverly combines the beauty of nature with humanistic feelings, making every stop a baptism of the soul. Under his leadership, the magnificent mountains and rivers and quaint villages of Yubeng are no longer simple scenery, but a vivid chapter with rich stories and profound meanings. Guide Tashi's photography skills are also very good, leaving us with many interesting and beautiful photos and memories during the hike! His patience, care and enthusiasm for treating every traveler like a family member made this trip not only a geographical migration, but also a profound exchange of warmth and understanding between people. With Tashi's company, the trip to Yubeng became an unforgettable memory.

Thanks to the guide and driver, Master Heima, for his enthusiasm and dedication in the early stage of the meeting, the reminder of the itinerary equipment, and the subsequent itinerary. He picked us up on time, introduced us to the various situations of the scenic spots, helped us with the luggage on the road, reminded us of the precautions, drove fast and steady, had a good personality, and was very patient. He took us to every scenic spot. When I couldn't walk, he encouraged me, walked with me, and took pictures for us! The faith of Songzanlin Temple on this trip was touching, the Rizhao Jinshan of Feilai Temple was shocking, and the beautiful scenery of Yubeng was refreshing! Brother Ma also told us a lot of local customs and allusions along the way, which was very interesting, so we were very happy and satisfied with this trip. Next time we have the opportunity to come to Lijiang, I hope that Brother Heima will take us~👍

Review for: Comfortable accommodation

A worthy experience to see the snow mountains in China. We - 5 people have a amazing trip even it was raining all day long. The local guide cannot speak English that something will be limited for foreingers to keen on exploring the local historical stories or spirit destination like me. However he - his name is 小扎西, is very kind and supportive for 5 of us, specially for me - Vietnamese trying to hamorny and getting a very good care. The route is hard for begginers but it is worthy to see at the end. The manager is also supportive while providing me a lot of tips and information before arriving Yunnan - this is my first time in China and the trip alone oversea.

Review for: Zhenxuan Accommodation (Yubeng is designated to stay at Muchen Mountain House)

It was a really great experience!! From the early docking, itinerary equipment reminders, and service, they were impeccable. They upgraded the accommodation and helped us book 1 night for descending the mountain and 2 nights for wild language! The price of this 5-day 4-night trip is also very conscientious. After all, it would cost more than 6,000 to book a hotel for 3 nights by yourself! Special mention to our team leader Zashi! A very reliable Tibetan handsome guy hahaha. The driving is very stable, and every day the arrangements and precautions for the next day will be sent in advance. My husband and I are both hiking for the first time. We challenged the Shenpu and Ice Lake lines. Zashi led the whole way, encouraged and accompanied us all the way, and helped take pictures. My husband has fallen in love with him! Hahahahaha... By the end of the Ice Lake Line, we were a little exhausted and it was a little late. Fortunately, Zashi quickly helped us find the horseman and communicated with the locals without any pressure (those who went by themselves couldn't find mules during the way, so the team leader is really necessary and safer!) At the end of the trip, we were sent to a more remote hotel in Lijiang! It was really great throughout the trip!!

The itinerary is reasonable, the accommodation is very good, the environment is very good, and you can eat a rich buffet directly after getting up early in Feilai Temple to watch the sunrise and golden mountain. The leader Xiong Sange has a steady and fast driving skill. He took us from Lijiang to Shangri-La to explain all the way, and took us to eat various local specialties. When we arrived at Yubeng, he helped us arrange equipment. My husband caught a little cold on the way back from the Ice Lake Line. Xiong Sange immediately arranged for the inn owner to help cook ginger tea and medicine. We can meet any needs. He has been taking care of me on the Ice Lake Road, helping me explore the way in front, and will take the initiative to help us take videos and photos when seeing beautiful scenery. In Yubeng, the weather was good in the morning and we could see the sunrise and golden mountain. Xiong San, the leader, was afraid that we didn’t get up, so he took a good-looking video and edited it and sent it to us. The effect of posting it on WeChat Moments was super good. On our last day, we had to go from Lijiang to Dali to play by ourselves. We were worried about how to get there. Xiong Sange helped us contact the car. This trip was very pleasant, the itinerary was reasonable, and the leader was professional and enthusiastic. Next time in Xinjiang and western Sichuan, we will continue to consider Klook products. It is very suitable for young people and hiking novices

Review for: 轻享5日(含1.5天雨崩徒步·越野车进出雨崩)

This five-day trip was temporarily decided before the Spring Festival, and Xiaobai finally chose the Kulu route. Xiaobai, who had never experienced hiking, was apprehensive. On the first day in Lijiang, it was easy to travel freely. Baisha Ancient Town is backed by snow-capped mountains and has beautiful scenery. The culture and customs of the Naxi people are just right in this not-so-commercial town. The subsequent Shangri-La and Feilai Temple made us more prepared for the plateau climate. Although there were rainy and snowy days in the middle, the leader Xiong Sange was very skilled in driving, and we were very relieved to go with him all the way, and he also gave us It introduces many local specialties, affordable delicacies and niche secrets, which are unexpected surprises and gains during the journey. Yu Beng, on the other hand, has heard countless stories and seen countless photos and videos, but actually coming to this place is still very shocking. During the two hikes in one and a half days, Brother Xiong always led the way carefully, fully considering our physical condition, properly arranging the overall route, and preparing oxygen and other necessary supplies for plateau hiking in advance. Finally, he safely led us to the summit, which was very difficult. The ice lake line, the moment we reach the top, all the hardships on the journey disappear, and the infinite scenery is on the dangerous peak. With a good team leader, a good mentality and mutual encouragement in the most difficult moments, we can reach the summit smoothly! Finally, I would like to thank Klook and Brother Xiong again for the wonderful trip. Colorful Yunnan is hard to say goodbye to, and I look forward to seeing you again!

I was attracted by the Yubeng Hiking and signed up for this tour. This was indeed the most unforgettable part of the trip. Of course, I was also moved by the faith of Songtsan Temple and shocked by the Rizhao Jinshan of Feilai Temple. Special thanks to the leader of this trip, Xiong San (we like to call him San Ge). San Ge’s kindness and humor added a lot of joy to this trip. He would explain various local customs and stories to us; San Ge’s photography skills also I have to praise him for helping us take a lot of beautiful photos and videos; Third Brother is also very responsible and responsible, taking his high-refractory friends to the hospital in the early morning and helping us arrange return transportation; in short, I am lucky to meet Third Brother. A team leader!

The whole journey was full of unexpected surprises and touching moments for me. On the first night in Lijiang, I took a shower and washed my hair. As you can imagine, I had high fever the next day, and then the high fever accompanied me throughout the journey. Fortunately, my friends who were traveling with me, Lao Wang, Lao Lin, and especially our leader Xiong Sansan took good care of me and provided me with enough oxygen. One night I really had difficulty breathing. Fortunately, my third brother drove me to the hospital for oxygen in the early morning and stayed with me for treatment until 4:30 in the morning. I am truly lucky to have such a responsible and kind leader. ah. Along the journey, from Lijiang to Shangri-La, and from Shangri-La to Yubeng, the third brother introduced the historical origins and cultural allusions in detail. It was also a pleasure to listen to the explanation carefully. It's a pity that I couldn't participate in the Yubeng Hiking due to severe high altitude sickness, but my friends will also send me photos from the front line. I hope I can go hiking in Yubeng next time I have the opportunity. By the way, there are several good places to eat along the road. I ate roast duck, hot pot, and local dishes of Tibetan compatriots.
