Overall we enjoyed the tour of Yunnan very much. We had experienced tour guides(Selina ) in Kunming who brought us to sample Wild Mushroom hot pot on our 1st day in Kunming which was delicious and it was a seasonal dish for a short period we were told .
We were interested in the way of life and what local agriculture on the way from Dali to Shaxi but our tour guide was inexperience and new to the job, so we could not get much information in that area.He just qualified from College/University but not on tourism and his command of English was just average. However he was a decent and pleasant guy so we didnāt get uptight about it as he has to start somewhere.We spoke some Chinese ourselves and helped him to improve his English vocabulary and vice versa!
Jack our tour guide for Lijiang was superb . We enjoyed the 4 days there. Also it was the highlight for me especially as I saw the series āMu Sagaā about the Mu family in Lijiang. We visited the Mu family residence in Lijiang where the series was filmed!
All our 2 drivers were excellent and respectful .
Overall we enjoyed this first trip to Yunnan and our return to China after 15 years!
We thoroughly enjoyed Shaxi ancient town and hope to return and spend more time there and exploring the place .

Before the tour, we raised many questions and concerns ā especially regarding our travel needs, as one of our family members is elderly and uses a wheelchair. We clearly informed her that wheelchair accessibility was a top priority, and she was transparent about which places were suitable. During the tour, Kelly was also very responsive, accommodating and flexible, even when we requested last-minute changes to the itinerary. Overall, our experience was smooth and reassuring, and we felt well taken care of throughout the journey.
Our trip began in Kunming, where we were guided by Selina (čč). In Dali, our guide was Linda (ęę §åØ), followed by Andrew (ęäæå») in Lijiang. At Shangri-La, we were guided by Jackļ¼ę“ē»ļ¼. Most importantly, our amazing driver, Xiao Ding (å°äø), ensured our safety and comfort throughout the journey from Dali to Shangri-La. While Xiao Ding may appear strict (when he doesnāt smile), we can assure you that he is a highly skilled driver who is extremely friendly, helpful, and kind . In the absence of a guide, he even took the initiative to explain some of the places we passed by, which added to our overall travel experience. When we arrived in Dali late in the evening, Xiao Ding kindly took us to a nearby restaurant for dinner even though his working hours had already ended. His thoughtful assistance saved us the time and hassle of finding our way to the restaurant on our own.
Kudos to all the guides and our driver for being extremely helpful, patient, and attentive. As one of my family members uses a wheelchair and moves at a slower pace, their assistance, understanding, and professionalism made a significant difference and greatly enhanced our overall travel experience. In particular, Andrew went above and beyond by helping push the wheelchair up a hill on the way to é¾å„³ę¹, ensuring that our family member was included and able to enjoy the scenery like everyone else. We never felt rushed at any location, and the guides and driver were always accommodating whenever we needed to make some changes to our itinerary.
The slight downside of our trip was our stay at the Lijiang hotel (E-Outfitting Hotel), as we felt that some of the facilities were a bit run down. The room heater was not functioning well, which made it quite cold during the winter season. In addition, the water pressure was low and the hot water supply was inconsistent. The breakfast ā particularly the Western meal ā was also somewhat underwhelming. That said, the hotel staff were friendly and helpful despite these shortcomings.
On the other hand, the hotel in Shaxi (ę²ęŗŖäŗę³åæå®æ) was amazing. The property has a lovely compound where guests can relax, play chess, sit outdoors with a cup of tea, and enjoy the scenery. The room was very well heated, equipped with both floor heating and an air-conditioning heating system. It was extremely warm and comfortable, even during the cold winter season.
Another minor downside was a wrong instruction given by our guide while we were heading to the train station in Kunming for our journey to Dali. We were told to turn right after the security check; however, the wheelchair-accessible passage was actually on the left. This caused a small delay as we queued at the wrong area. That said, it was not a major issue, as we believe the guide was not fully aware of the stationās accessibility layout. With the assistance of the train station personnel, we were still able to board our train on time.

Lenna was as amazing as ever. She planned the entire 9-day itinerary perfectly and gave us great advice throughout. Everything was smooth and well-organizedāfrom airport pickups, high-speed rail arrangements, to all the tours. It truly felt stress-free. The places recommended for Harbin by Lenna were superb and absolutely worth visiting.
In Harbin, our English-speaking guide Bingjie was fantastic. She was very friendly, entertaining, and made us feel extremely comfortable. She helped us with everything, and the 2 days passed by in a flash.
After Harbin, we continued to Beijing, where we had another wonderful experience. We had two excellent drivers, Mr. Jin and Mr. Zhou, and our English guide Alice Wang. All of them were very experienced and made sure we were well taken care of at all times. Alice even made adjustments to the itinerary based on the weather to ensure we got the best possible experience in Beijing. They also made sure we didnāt waste time queuing and that we got to see everything we wanted.
Overall, it was another outstanding trip with China Xian Tour operator. Professional, reliable, and thoughtful service from start to finish. We highly recommend them and will definitely use them again for future trips to China.

Our travel consultant, Lenna, was very understanding and extremely patient. She brought a lot of joy to our family and organized the entire tour very well. Everything was smooth and the price was very reasonable.
One of our tour guides in Xiāan, Wendy, was especially excellent. She explained the history clearly and in an interesting way, and she also took us to try local food. We really enjoyed her guidance.
Our family is very satisfied and happy with the services. We highly recommend this tour company and especially recommend Lenna and Wendy.

We booked a 2 days tour with Kelly at China Xian Joy Travel. During our time at Harbin Jenny was our English speaking guide.
The tour was well planned and we managed to not just see the magical sights but enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. The kids had a great time playing in the snow at the Ice & Snow world and other theme parks in Harbin.
Our meals were well planned and besides the normal lunches, our dinners were the specialities of the iron pot meat dish and the handmade dumplings Harbin.
We will heartily recommend this travel agency for China tours.
