Huangshan with our guide April. If you want to hear more just facts about places. She adds her unique perspective....What fun
![]() Our guide was April. She was exceptional. She shared so much knowledge about herbs..nature..and Chinese traditional medicine. She has a great respect for nature and has great knowledge about the region. We visited the ancient city of Hongcun and then went up the yellow mountain. The home of the inspiration behind Chinese mountain landscapes. What a magical journey we had! more

Outstanding and memorable journey in the Yellow Mountains
![]() Our guided trip with China Highlights to HuangShan and the Yellow Mountains was just outstanding and memorable. April Yao is a radiant person who took care of us like a cousine, passionately guided us in the Chinese and local culture, always answered our curiosity and smoothly adapted the journey to our wishes. Thanks to our driver, Mr John, who was caring and cheerful too. These 3 days couldn’t have been better, we didn’t visited China, we just lived it ! more
