One of our highlights was to meet one of the local Dongba of the Naxi people in his family home. The Naxi are one of China's minority groups...We were so inspired to learn about the Naxi people and their language and culture. Our guide Deniel had excellent English and was really informative about the local history and customs and took us on a breathtaking high level walk above leaping tiger gorge, making some incredible memories. We also enjoyed a delicious meal in a local Naxi restaurant. More...
- Philippa H from UKHad a wonderful time with our tour guides Cactus and Jin. In the time of COVID it was a great relief to have help sorting through protocols for entering tourist sights. Excellent lunch options. The juggling and sugar candy art in the hutong was a real treat. Great thing about touring now - no crowds. Highly recommended tour operator for anyone traveling to Beijing.
