Natural Beauty Tour


Starting in Kunming we set off on an adventure that offers busy markets, history and culture along with an exciting trek through one of the deepest gorges in the world.

From Kunming we take a full day to look round the astonishing lime pillars and pinnacles of the Stone Forest. Then it's on to Dali and an optional boat trip on the Erhai Lake and visit to the Ancient City.

We head down to the depths of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, 16km long and 3,900m deep. We take a memorable trek through stunning scenery to Daju and then rest our feet with free time in Lijiang or some more walking with a guided tour of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

From Lijiang we travel with the locals on a bus to Kunming, and after a flight to Guilin we explore the colourful city of Longsheng and the nearby Dragon's Backbone Rice Terraces.

Natural Beauty TourThe lively night markets are also well worth a visit. Another free day is spent in Yangshou, set amongst stunning limestone peaks, the perfect opportunity to relax and shop for a few souvenirs.

A comfortable domestic flight take us to Guangzhou, commonly known as Canton and one of China's most prosperous cities, our last stop on the main land before departure.
