The guide was exclusively in Chinese. Just use a translator app. He really took care of our meals (requesting halal or vegetarian if the former not available).The was amazing, the stone forest time to explore was a little short (we requested to explore ourselves since we didn't understand the guide anyway - about 1 hour 15 min)

We really enjoy this day tour which was well arranged and planned from end to end. Our tour guide, 海导 is very informative, friendly and thoughtful. Lunch included is also good. The scenery of Stone forest is really amazing. Dianchi Lake is just for bird watching

The canola flower fields in Luoping, including Jiulong Waterfall and the Spiral Flower Field, were all beautiful. The Spiral Flower Field, in particular, offered stunning scenery and great photo opportunities. I would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Kunming.

Just got back from an amazing tour to Xishan Mountain and Dianchi Lake in Kunming, and I'm still thinking about those views!
The scenery was absolutely stunning - everything I hoped for and more. The weather was perfectly cool and refreshing (slightly chilly, but in the best way possible). It made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
Dianchi Lake was a highlight - watching the seagulls glide over the water with that incredible backdrop was mesmerizing. Seriously, the view here alone is worth the trip.
Up on Xishan Mountain, we explored beautiful temples tucked into the hillside and were rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views. The combination of cultural sites and natural beauty made it such a memorable experience.
If you're in Kunming, don't skip this. The fresh mountain air, the peaceful lake, and those unforgettable views - it's the perfect way to experience what Yunnan has to offer.

Great ViewAmazing Day Trip to Fuxian Lake!
I just returned from a fantastic one-day tour to Fuxian Lake and it exceeded all my expectations. Everything about this tour was beautiful – the scenery was absolutely stunning and the atmosphere was so peaceful and relaxing.
The tour service was excellent from start to finish. Our guide was professional and attentive, making sure everyone was comfortable throughout the day. The itinerary was well-planned with plenty of time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meals provided. The food was delicious and gave us a nice taste of local flavors. It's always a bonus when the dining experience matches the quality of the sightseeing!

We have safely arrived in Shanghai. Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for your considerate company and care throughout our journey in Shangri-La. The trip was a complete success, thank you so much! Each time, you arrived at our destination early and prepared ample snacks and oxygen tanks. The scenery of Colorful Yunnan is beautiful, but even more unforgettable is our driver's enthusiasm and thoughtfulness, which made our trip especially warm. Our brief encounter was hard to say goodbye to. We wish Mr. Zhang safe travels, all the best, happiness to your family, and good health! We look forward to visiting Yunnan again next time and hope to meet you again. We will definitely come back to Yunnan!

The experience of this trip was very pleasant, and I will definitely come back. After all, Yunnan is such a beautiful place that it would be impossible to see everything in just one visit. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the tour. One of the main advantages of joining a guided tour is that everything is taken care of for you, so you don’t have to worry about anything. The itinerary includes all the major attractions, and the meals served on the tour bus are decent, with good flavors and plenty of food. The hotels are clean, comfortable, and relatively quiet, providing a good opportunity for rest throughout the trip. Breakfast is also excellent, and there is a different guide available at each location. Overall, I am very satisfied.

This tour is highly recommended for anyone who's looking to travel to Yunnan. The itinerary was really great, it didn't felt rushed and we felt like we got to visit many places. The accommodations were top-notch and had really great vibes and views. The tour guide assigned to us was 和师傅, he was very thoughtful and considerate throughout the entire trip. Bought us to local eateries and performances when we had time to spare. We learnt so much about the history of the many places that we drive through, the attractions we went and even about the difference tribes. I will definitely be bringing my family along again for a trip so they can experience what I experienced. Highly recommend 和师傅 for your tour!

From the very first step inside, it was wow! The staff were waiting to welcome us from afar, greeting us with a royal-like gesture. Everyone was dressed in traditional costumes, which instantly set the mood. The venue itself was grand and beautifully decorated.
The food came in courses. About half of the dishes were absolutely delicious—surprisingly much better than I expected. The other half wasn’t really to my personal taste. The way the dishes were served was also impressive: the staff walked out in formation, like royal attendants, which added to the immersive atmosphere.
As for the show, it was enjoyable though not as breathtaking as other performance I’ve seen in Chongqing. Still, the seating arrangement was very close to the stage, which made the experience feel intimate and engaging. I found myself appreciating it and cheering the performers on.
Overall, it’s truly worth experiencing—and definitely worth going if you have the time!
