clean room and location is superb. 7-11 is nearby, 10 minutes walk to train station. Breakfast can be improved.

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.

recommend this tour. tour guide was passionate and shared about the tour/jiuxiang/shilin and also gave some information and recommendations for yunnan. quite some walking and climbing of stairs involved for both jiuxiang and shilin. jiuxiang was self-guided for the second half, while for shilin the tour guide was with us for the whole journey and gave explanations on the way. lunch provided was a simple chinese meal, many dishes but on the bland side. edible and good to try.

This is the best way to see several attractions in one day, especially if you have limited time. I only wished there was more time on the western hills scenic area to explore a bit more - like another hr or two hours would have been great. the tour finished at 4pm. if you were self-exploring, you could definitely visit western hills scenic area all day, a full day, as it is huge! the yunnan nationalities village is also very big. we all paid extra to ride the little train which definitely helped saved time and our legs from a lot of walking. we saw a few short musical and comedy cultural type performances - if you want to see it all, you need a full day! anyways, the guide was realy lovely but commentary is all in Chinese... it was a small group of older, eldery people and they were nice. we had a family lunch banquet meal which consisted of local dishes - like a home cooked meal! I recommend to book mainly for logistics and time...

Overall it is value for money and highly praise the tour guide Ms Moon, she is exceptionally well to bring us in this fruitfull short tour. The tour is simple but the handling is just enough. The timing is just perfect to cover the enitre 2-1/2 hours walk thru the cave and end with the nice lunch before we depart to the city.
