Lijiang

Tour guide: When planning the trip, I inquired with several travel companies, specifically asking if they had female guides. Klook recommended Sister Mei to us, saying that customers who had been with her thought she was exceptionally good. So, after comparing several options, we embarked on a five-day, four-night journey with Sister Mei as our driver. Unexpectedly, Sister Mei turned out to be a fantastic guide – patient, meticulous, conscientious, and responsible. She took everyone's feelings into account and took care of us without us having to say much. Sister Mei thoughtfully prepared fruits, snacks, and local delicacies for us. She never rushed us, cared about whether we were warm enough, and demonstrated excellent driving skills on difficult roads. I knew choosing a female driver and female guide wouldn't be a mistake!

Made a very last-minute booking, hoping to catch the golden sunrise on the snow mountains in winter, and it was totally worth it. Itinerary: The arrangement was very smooth and seamless. Even in just a few days, I got a clear understanding of the Lijiang-Shangri-La route. Tour Guide: The driver was very enthusiastic and professional, very familiar with the route; every day he helped us arrange the entry and exit times, and provided us with a lot of travel advice, which was a great help for us first-time visitors. Accommodation Choice: I experienced hotels/B&Bs with different advantages for four days, and rested very well. Attractions: The Baima Snow Mountain hike was the highlight of this trip, led by a very capable guide. It was my first time challenging a high altitude, wild route, and the moment the snow mountain appeared in front of me, I felt that all the bumps along the way were worth it.

The tour was very well arranged, with Tom coordinating everything through WeChat. The driver picked us up early at 6.30am to avoid the crowds. First, we went to pick up the oxygen bottles before proceeding to the first location, blue moon valley, reaching at approximately 7.15-7.30am. En route, we saw huge crowds queuing for tickets. Once we reached blue moon valley, the driver did not follow us in but gave us very detailed instructions on what to do. We also paid for the mini shuttles to bring us around (~40 yuan). After that, we were supposed to meet the driver at the tourist centre but as the rest of my group have not returned, my guide instructed me to head up to the mountain first. Again, he sent specific instructions and the QR code which will be used for the cable car rides and the Lijiang impression performance. Overall, the itinerary was well-planned and there were sufficient time for us to explore the places on our own and the whole process was seamless.

A Day Trip to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain My group tour to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain took a nice turn, thanks to a flexible plan. Our Grand Cableway ride was supposed to be in the morning, but it got rescheduled to the afternoon. Our guide quickly adjusted the itinerary—we visited Blue Moon Valley first, then the cableway. The valley’s turquoise water, like liquid jade, was breathtaking; we walked the boardwalk and laughed at the icy stream. By 2 PM, we took the cableway up. The snow-dusted peaks against the blue sky made the thin air feel worth it. We snapped photos and enjoyed the quiet grandeur. Our driver waited patiently whenever we lingered, and the customer service team had confirmed the change earlier, keeping everything smooth. Tired but happy by evening, the schedule shift only made the day better. Great service and stunning views—this trip will stay with me.

This trip to Shangri-La was planned in early July, to help my child relax before the start of the new school term and prepare for the academic challenges ahead. The itinerary was very well-organized and comprehensive, covering all of Shangri-La's famous attractions in just four days. A special shout-out to Mr. Ba Ge, our driver from Yunnan Youxiake, whose driving skills were exceptionally steady. He was also very enthusiastic and showed us the unique scenery of Yunnan. On the second day, my child felt unwell due to altitude sickness. Mr. Ba Ge not only provided us with a portable oxygen tank, but also went the extra mile by driving an additional 50 kilometers round trip to take us to the hotel so we could settle in, allowing my child to rest and recover in an oxygenated room. After we arrived home safely, Mr. Ba Ge even sent a message to check on my child's condition. These heartwarming acts of kindness were truly touching. We are extremely satisfied with the entire trip, especially with Mr. Ba Ge from Youxiake. A big thumbs up to him, and wishing him all the best!

This one-day tour to Shangri-La was absolutely fantastic! Our driver drove smoothly, planned the route perfectly, and was punctual and thoughtful throughout the trip—he even volunteered to share insights about the scenery and local culture along the way. The travel agency’s pre-trip communication was efficient and seamless, with a well-organized itinerary that never felt rushed. We fully experienced the grandeur of Tiger Leaping Gorge, the tranquility of Napa Lake, and the charm of Dukezong Ancient Town. The staff responded promptly to all our questions, making the entire journey stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Yunnan!

Solo traveling has a lot of limitations, so booking this tour was really great value for the money. Since there wasn't a tour guide, the driver and master were local Naxi people who took this group of a few people and introduced the scenery and customs of Lijiang and Shangri-La along the way. His driving skills were truly first-class, safe and stable 👍🏻. The itinerary was rich but not too tiring, with enough time for us to slowly acclimatize to the high altitude. I would join again next time I come to Yunnan 👍🏻.

Highly recommended! Our tour guide was very helpful and informative. We used WeChat to communicate since we don't speak Chinese at all. The tour guide always checked on our whereabouts to ensure our safety

Wonderfull hiking trail with the Guide, all timing and arrangement planed out perfectly. Highly recommanded for a relax pleasant hike
