Beeindruckende Tage in Lijiang
![]() Wir waren 3 N?chte in Lijiang, organisiert durch China Highlights. Wir haben den Jadedrachenschneeberg besucht, wurden in Baisha durch einen Naxi-Schamanen in die Bilderschrift der Naxi eingeführt, waren in der Tigersprungschlucht und sind durch die Altstadt von Lijiang gebummelt. Unser Guide Alice hat uns super geführt (englisch), ist auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen und wir hatten viel Spass und tolle Gespr?che miteinander. Ein tolles Erlebnis. more

China trip as a solo traveler
![]() An den jeweiligen Orten wurde ich bei Ankunft bereits von ReiseleiterIn / FahrerIn in den Bahnh?fen / Flugh?fen und der Anlegestelle (am Ende der Yangtze-Kreuzfahrt) erwartet und abgeholt. Alles war perfekt organisiert, da auch alle Züge und Flüge (für mich als Deutschem aktuell leider keine Selbstverst?ndlichkeit mehr) auf die Minute pünktlich waren!Besonders hervorheben m?chte ich die spektakul?ren Bergpanoramen in Zhangjiajie und die sehr angenehme Art der dortigen Reiseleiterin Rachel. Sie war es auch, die mich motivierte, leckere kulinarische Spezialit?ten auszuprobieren, was mir im weiteren Verlauf der Reise sehr zugute kam.Auch Tensing E. m?chte ich erw?hnen, der mir Lhasa n?herbrachte und mit dem ich w?hrenddessen interessante buddhistisch-philosophische Diskussionen führte. more

Itinerary Quick Look
Here is a suggested itinerary. We are happy to customize a tour according to your interests.
Your tour guide will be waiting in the airport's arrivals hall with a nameplate and a welcoming smile. You will be transferred to your hotel by a private car and driver, and your tour guide will help you check in and ensure everything is okay at the hotel.
On your three-hour drive to Wolong, you'll take a reflective break at the 2008 Earthquake Memorial Site in the ruins of Xuankou Middle School.
Ganhaizi, located in the buffer zone of Wolong Nature Reserve, offers a chance to appreciate the natural scenery of the panda habitat. This less-known gem is perfect for photography enthusiasts or those who enjoy a leisure walk.
