Review for: Package A: 7 days/minimum 2 people/1 person needs to inquire separately

Yunnan-Sichuan Great Ring Road Daocheng Yading Lugu Lake 7 days - no turning back, the scenery is all on the road, great route arrangement, accommodation arrangement is very local characteristics, but the long distance driving along the way is very hard and requires good physical strength support.
