More Than We Expected

This trip exceeded our expectations. We originally booked because of Zhangjiajie, but Jiuzhaigou became our favorite part. The colors of the lakes and mountains were unbelievable. Everything from booking to the final airport transfer was handled professionally.

Wonderful experience with a very friendly guide

The scenery at Longji was breathtaking, especially with the clouds around the mountains in the morning. Our guide Leo was the highlight of the trip. He was professional but also felt like a friend traveling with us. He shared local stories, recommended good viewpoints, and took many great photos for our family. The company was also very responsive when we changed our pickup location last minute. Really appreciated the flexibility.
