Zhangjiajie Travel Reviews

Великолепный тур, великолепные горы, великолепный гид Abbie! Ездили с женой и семейной парой друзей. Первый раз в Китае. Когда собирались, гадали, что нас ждёт, но реальность оказалась выше всяких ожиданий. Инфраструктура на высшем уровне, организация туризма вызывает уважение. Как быстро тут справляются с гигантскими очередями - фантастика. Да, людей и очередей много, всё-таки сезон, но, опять же, за счёт организации потоков туристов, этого чаще всего просто не замечаешь. Виды - просто бомба! Это невероятно красиво! Везде, куда ни глянь. Одно дело смотреть фильм, другое - увидеть это всё вживую. Рекомендую Джанцзяцзе однозначно тем, кто любит природу, потрясающие виды, горы и классную атмосферу. Отдельное спасибо гиду Эбби. Всё рассказывает, при этом как-то ничего лишнего, всё по делу, и очень интересно. Ответила на все наши вопросы. Учла все наши пожелания в течение каждого дня. Как-то умудрялась провести нас 'тайными' тропам на некоторых маршрутам, чтоб было меньше туристов и лучше виды. Подарила нам приятные памятные подарки. Мне вообще принесла из дома китайских монеток (я коллекционирую, но тут нигде не найти). Очень обходительная и внимательная, и мне лично это очень непривычно после всех других гидов в других местах. Она даже запомнила в первый день предпочтения по кофе, у всех разные, и утром откуда-то нам его доставала заранее. Очень приятные впечатления, но мне иногда было жалко её, что так с нами возится :( Гиду 10 с плюсом по пятибальной шкале однозначно. В общем, писать могу ещё очень много, но, наверное, закончу тем, что всё было просто супер! Спасибо!

What a beautiful area Zhangjiajie is! Our guide Anna was very thoughtful and took the time to show us her favourite places away from the crowds. We loved the views and walking trails in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and the wonderful Tianmen Mountain. Make sure you include this place in your China holiday. We highly recommend China Highlights - they will tailor make an itinerary based on your interests and will take really good care of you.

Floating mountains and misty valleys made for an unforgettable trip. Our tour guide's #davidnearby knowledge of the area was impressive, enhancing every view. The whole experience was smooth and seamless, from start to finish. We were able to truly relax and soak in the beauty of nature, thanks to the excellent planning. Highly recommend this destination and this type of guided tour for a magical getaway. #chinahighlights #davidnearby

I had so much fun! All the tours chosen by Leeky Li were planned perfectly and my sweet guide Anna, was like a loving and caring daughter. Mr. Yuan, our driver could not have been more helpful and cheerful.

My experience in Zhangjiajie was a very good & memorable one. My husband & I were for 3 days and we were so blessed with good weather and a good guide. The scenery is breathtaking and majestic. Our guide, David from Zhangjiajie, has introduced us a few interesting path to walk, which allows us to take many beautiful photos. David also entertained us with his beautiful singing. Zhangjiajie definitely worth the trip and David took good care of us.

David (Nearby) was our tour guide during our recent 3 day trip to Zhang Jia Jie for a family of 5. This was a customized trip as we wanted to move at our own pace. He was very patient, knowledgeable, thoughtful and hardworking. Cannot recommend him enough. China highlights tour agency was very professional and quick to organize everything for us. Heidi was our contact and was always eager to help. Keep up the good work!

Bree was our 5 star guide for Zhangjiajie. She made us feel enthused the minute she called out as she met us off the train. She was always bright and full of beans - a breath of fresh air every morning. We were definitely on a "high" each day - cable car rides, elevators, glass walkways and escalators.... the scenery was amazing in every direction. We did a quite a few steps, not all in one go, but spread out, so ok. Bree always encouraged us by referencing the KungFu Panda movie - Steps are the enemy.... let's defeat more enemies!" We also went to the Yellow Dragon Caves. Bree is from the Miao ethnic minority so taught us all about their customs - including singing us a welcoming song. As it was my birthday she bought me a cake and gave me a present of a plaque showing the mountains we just visited. (Thanks also to our CHL consultant, Chandler, who converted our original wish-list into an amazing itinerary).

We stayed in Zhangjiajie for 2 days and besides the colder weather we really enjoyed the outdoors and the beautiful mountains. I would highly recommend Wendy as a tour guide. She knows all of the locations very well and the best food we had was in Zhangjiajie.

虽然在张家界只有3天两晚短短的行程，也是一种特殊的旅途。第一天徒步张家界国家森林是风雨飘摇，导游Linda 还是尽所能力的一面淋雨，一面双语讲解的为我们讲解游整个张家界国家森林必遊的景点。第二天，虽然没有下雨，早上带我们去参观张家界大峡谷行玻璃桥，又参加了5个体验项目。最可惜的“高空滑索”项目因为前一天晚上下雪，第二天冷空气不降，所以不能开放。下午Linda又带我们去天门山，虽然是春天，但一路上却是冬天的景色，冰天雪地的，但我们还是不怕辛苦排除万难的上到山顶，就快到栈道的玻璃桥，还是放弃不敢前进，因为冰地还是太滑了！我们几个老人家不敢冒险前进。这次张家界虽然许多遗憾，但也拍了许多不遇而求的相片，Linda 也为我们介绍安排了很不错的当地餐食。我们收获了美味佳肴，拍了一些漂亮春天还会下雪的照片。我们在张家界的收获和失落也扯平了！哈哈哈。难忘Linda 和我们张家界之遊。

My wife and I with 2 other couples have just completed a 10-day tour of Ziangjiajie that was conducted by China Highlights. Needless to say we were very impressed by the spectacular geological features, the sceneries and such man-made attractions as the glass bridge. Even more impressive was the tour itself: everything was up to expectations and ran like clockwork from the moment we arrived at the airport to the point of departure. We are especially grateful to the guide, Wendy, who was excellent. She spoke good English, was knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We would highly recommend her to anyone planning to visit this area.

I had an amazing time at Zhangjiajie and already started to miss this beautiful scenic. The nature, the mountains, the air, stunning views etc. No words or photos can do justice of this stunning place! Thank you very much to Eileen from ZJJ for sharing this beautiful memory with me. Definitely left a part of me in ZJJ (:

Zhangjiajie was the part of our trip that had generated the highest expectations. It was far superior to what we had imagined. It is an amazing experience full of natural beauty and local culture. Our guide Tony shared with us the story of his own life as a local and his passion for the mountains and life in the area. I know we will be going back, especially since the weather did not help us.

We area a group of 6 people from Malaysia.Very well organised from pickup to departure. The car provided were new and big and clean. More than enough space for 6 of us with big luggages. Special mention must go to Wendy Yi our English speaking guide for the 7days. She was a gem. Most helpful and accomodating. We changed the routes almost everyday as there were some parts that we were not so bothered with. Very patient with some of us whom had difficulty walking and stayed with us until the end of each day back to the hotel. Excellent 5* to her attitude. No rushing through each day to finish. No tourist traps. No marketing. Made the holiday very enjoyable and easy. Very good English as well and pre-empted our needs.

Nous avons passé de très bons moments avec notre guide David malgré une météo maussade. La région de Zhangjiajie merite vraiment le détour et China Highlights vous facilite beaucoup les choses pendant votre séjour. Le programme est aussi flexible quand la situation le permet et qu’il faut s’adapter à la météo ou changer un horaire de train, c’est appréciable et David est impeccable pour ?a !

Our trip was made even better thanks to our guide, Wendy, who ensured everything went smoothly. She was helpful, professional, and provided just the right amount of insight about the area’s history and culture.

We had a wonderful time in Zhangjiajie with our guide Sara from china highlights! She was very knowledgeable and had plenty of local recommendations. As a fellow foodie she showed us

Had a great time in Zhangjiajie visiting the mountains, running around shopping and drinking bubble tea! Thanks for taking us around Sara and appreciate you being so accommodating :)

We arrived at Zhangjiajie High Speed Rail station on Jan 2nd and were met by our local guide Bree (dressed in traditional Miao ethnic minority costume !) and our driver Mr Wu. This "no queuing" experience became a recurring feature on our next few days and is very satisfying (and time-saving), as long as you don't mind the colder temperatures in January ! We want to give special thanks to our guide, Bree, who organized everything for us so efficiently and accommodated us with our last minute requests such as wanting to see the cultural show and the 72 Wonder Tower. She is very knowledgeable about the area and culture and we learned many fascinating facts from her during the hikes and in the mini-van as we went from location to location. One of our party had sprained her ankle during the hike in the Grand Canyon and had some discomfort in walking. This would have been an issue on the last day as there was still so much to see on Tianmen Mountain and we had a train to catch that afternoon. Bree was not flustered by this and had worked out an alternative, less strenuous route for the injured party to meet up with the rest of us along the way. Luckily, we did not need to use this in the end. We were willing to forego lunch to make up for lost time due to the slower pace but Bree timed everything well. We managed to see everything that was planned on our schedule and still had time for a full lunch before we headed to the train station. We also want to give a shout-out to the driver Mr Wu too, for his pleasant disposition and patience in waiting for us all day as we went sightseeing. He kept us hydrated with bottled water in the mini-van and provided snacks and fruits. He even brought us his own home-grown organic oranges which tasted very sweet. Thank you ! We have had such a great experience travelling with China Highlights that we have already planned our third trip with them, this time going to Jiu Zhai Gou later this year.

What a fantastic experience. We spent three days in the company of Abbie, our amazing guide. Being in our late 70's Abbie looked after us as if we were her own parents! Always getting us to the front of queues. Finding interesting local eateries. The sights we saw were stunning, the steps we climbed were many. I can thoroughly recommend the Zhangjiajie tour, a unique part of the world, it has to be seen to be believed.

My family and I are currently traveling around China with China Highlights and it has been amazing. All the cars have been excellent, very comfortable, spacious and new. Lily, our guide in Zhangjiajie, was exceptional. Incredibly kind, attentive to our needs, and always with a smile. She always had snacks for us, was warm and joyous, and very knowledgeable. Of all the guides we have used across our travels, she may be one of the best. Highly recommend China Highlights and if you’re considering a visit to Zhangjiajie, Lily will make your trip very memorable.

We had a wonderful time at Zhangjiajie last week. The sceneries there were breathtaking and every photographs we took were picturesque. We haven’t travel with a travel agency or having a tour guide with us for a very long time but glad that we decided to travel with China Highlights. The itinerary planned was exactly what we wished for and the guide, David “Nearby”, was very knowledgeable and ensured that we had a smooth and fulfilling tour of Zhangjiajie. He shared with us some interesting stories of the place and even entertained us with his spontaneous singing. I would definitely consider China Highlights again and recommend having David as a guide.

We loved that incredible park, and Linda our guide took care of us, with a Big responsability and dedication. We fill gratefull.

It was one of the most memorable part of our trip with all the stunning scenery and exciting activities. Nonetheless, we were led by a wonderful tour guide (Anna) who understand our needs and pace, and guiding us through the journey. We walked through the town in Feng Huang for the night view upon arrival at 9pm and continue on the next morning before we departed to ZhangJiaJie. With some luck, it was after the peak season and we were able to visit in “VIP” style like the unblocked view going up the hallelujah mountain, the less crowded (close to empty) on some busses/shuttle vans, boats and etc. During our stay in ZJJ, my friend and I decided to challenge the Qixing Mountain via Ferata the next morning and our tour guide worked through the changes in itinerary and made all the arrangements for us. After a tiring morning, we end our day on a boat on Baofeng River enjoy the views and tranquility.

La nostra esperienza a Zhangjiajie con China Highlights è stata semplicemente straordinaria! Un enorme grazie a Leeky per l’organizzazione impeccabile del tour e a Vicky la nostra guida, per aver reso tutto ancora più speciale. Zhangjiajie è un luogo unico, che regala un’esperienza naturalistica meravigliosa, con paesaggi mozzafiato che sembrano usciti da un sogno. è stato probabilmente il momento più emozionante e affascinante del nostro viaggio in Cina. Grazie alla professionalità di China Highlights, ogni dettaglio è stato curato alla perfezione, e Vicky ci ha guidati con grande competenza, arricchendo la nostra esperienza con consigli utili e dettagli interessanti.

David was an exceptional guide who made our mountain adventure unforgettable. His deep knowledge, flawless planning, and quick adaptability ensured a smooth and stress-free experience. What truly set him apart was his knack for taking us off the beaten path, leading us to exclusive, breathtaking views away from the crowds. Highly recommend David for anyone seeking a unique and well-curated journey!

Our guide Tony made our visit to Zhangjiajie amazing. The place itself has so many amazing sites to see, and having Tony as our guide to show us around made it all the more fun and enjoyable. He was so personable, funny, spoke great English, and was very knowledgeable about his home town and all the sites we visited. He also knew so many great spots for food and tea and got us tickets to an amazing show. He also acted as our personal photographer at all the sites. Mr. Young our driver was also fantastic. He kept a very clean car, and was a smooth and safe driver. This duo makes me want to go back and spend more time in beautiful Zhangjiajie!

Our tour guide David was fantasticGuardamos de David nuestro mejor recuerdo por su profesionalismo, dedicación y amor por su patria y su trabajo. En todo momento ofreció su ayuda por cualquier inconveniente que tengamos incluyendo lo que pudiera ocurrir fuera de su trabajo. A David, muchas gracias !!!!!

I had the pleasure of joining a tour in Zhangjiajie, and it was truly unforgettable thanks to our amazing young guide(Anna). From the moment we met, her warm smile and friendly demeanor put everyone at ease. She was incredibly knowledgeable, providing fascinating insights into the history, culture, and natural beauty of the area. Whether we were trekking through the Avatar Mountains or marveling at the incredible views from the glass bridge, she always made sure we were well-informed and comfortable. Her passion for the region really shone through in her storytelling, which brought the landscapes to life in a way that made the experience even more magical. She was also very attentive, making sure we had plenty of time for photos, answering all of our questions, and offering great recommendations for local food and activities.
