Things to do in Dali

We had a fantastic morning at a family-owned tea plantation, where we were warmly welcomed by the host, 兰姐. Our guide, 香姐, was incredibly patient as she taught us the art of picking tea leaves. We even got to experience the process of drying and kneading the leaves afterwards. The entire experience was both educational and enjoyable. I highly recommend this activity! location:

We were extremely satisfied with our private customized trip to Yunnan; it was a choice we absolutely don't regret! First and foremost, the entire itinerary planning and communication process went very smoothly. The team is highly professional. They didn't just arrange things according to our requests; they also proactively offered suggestions and planned based on our ideas, preferences, and expectations. If you already know where you want to go and what you want to experience, it's even better to tell them in advance. They truly go out of their way to make sure your itinerary perfectly matches your expectations. Throughout the entire process, they were very respectful of our ideas and never forced us to go anywhere or do anything specific. Instead, they offered professional advice and allowed us to make our own choices. Communication via WeChat was also very convenient, with quick response times. Any issues we had during the trip were promptly addressed, which gave us great peace of mind. If you're considering a trip to Yunnan, I highly recommend booking their private customized tour! You won't have to worry about transportation, routes, hotel connections, or daily planning. You just need to get in the car and enjoy the journey. It's truly perfect for anyone who wants to travel easily while still having a high-quality itinerary. Additionally, I must give special praise to every driver we encountered on this trip! Each driver was incredibly friendly, professional, and very willing to share local culture, interesting stories, and the scenery along the way. This made the entire journey more meaningful and heartwarming than just 'checking off tourist spots.' Most importantly, every driver was extremely punctual; they never made us wait, and they were always happy to help along the way. We are truly grateful to them. Special thanks to our driver for the entire trip, Master Lu Chao. Lu Chao, thank you for your hard work! Thank you for your companionship, patience, and care throughout the journey. Your professionalism and attentiveness made us feel very safe and secure throughout the trip, and we made many wonderful memories. We are truly lucky to have met you this time! Overall, we have absolutely no regrets about this choice. Thank you to the entire team for all your arrangements, care, and effort! Our Yunnan trip was delightful and well worth it.

The whole day was a delight with the assigned driver. We went during 火把节. Everywhere is crowded with vehicles. Despite that, the driver and us managed to br flexible and complete the day tour happily!

The 8-day Dali trip was a great experience.The itinerary was well-planned and smooth,and the scenery at Erhai lake was truly stunning.

Finally made it to Yunnan and it was everything I dreamed of! Lugu Lake's crystal-clear waters, the peaceful vibes of Shuhe Ancient Town, and the incredible local cuisine made this 6-day journey truly special. Our tour leader went above and beyond – even prepared oxygen cans and sunscreen for everyone. No hidden costs, no rush, just pure enjoyment. Every detail was well taken care of. Yunnan is a place you'll want to visit again and again!

We booked for 3 pax for April 2026. 7 others joined us to make up the group. Itenery covered as mentioned with sufficient free time given to explore the places we visited. Klook handled the picking up from the Train Station on Arrival to sending us to the Airport for Departure, promptly and timely at our schedule. Kudos. In this respect, hats off to the coordinator Winnie (小小舟) for doing the planning work for us. She had patience and guided us along from the point we made contact, enquired about packages, the details in between, to our booking, arrival and departure effortlessly. For the tour, we travelled on the same vehicle throughout our journey. For the first 3 days of the tour, we had an amicable and pleasant guide with the name 杨雪梅. We knew at once she had passion for this job. Thanks for the great photos & good angles despite the crowds and also information that helped us appreciate our tour better. The next 3 days, Maka was our guide. He was loud but respectful & helpful.

This 10-day Yunnan trip includes a 6-day tour group for Kunming, Dali, and Lijiang, a 2-day/1-night tour group for Shangri-La, and a 2-day/1-night tour group for Lugu Lake! Each leg of this tour had a different guide! We had Guide Liao Zhiyun leading us through Kunming and Dali! Guide Zhima led us to Lijiang, and Sangji Zhuoma led us on our Shangri-La tour! And our Brother Anwu led us on our Lugu Lake tour! Every guide was very professional, introducing us to many delicious foods and local specialties! The hotel accommodations and dining were also good!

The itinerary was flawless — no rushing at all. My English speaking tour guide took the time to explain Dali’s history and patiently answered all my questions. My favorite parts were visiting the local morning market, exploring the variety of fresh fruits and seafood from different communities, and the tie-dye experience with the local grandma. Highly recommend this experience!

The tourguide is very professional. Arrived at the meeting point before the meeting time. The transport throughout the journey was very spacious & comfortable. The inter city transport involved the High Speed train. The tour company booked a suitable & comfort seat throughout the HSR journey from Kunming to Dali, then from Lijiang back to Kunming. The hotels that were booked by the tour company are also very comfortable and near to the attraction point. In summary, the, i would rate it 9.0 out of 10.
