Beeindruckende Tage in Lijiang
Wir waren 3 N?chte in Lijiang, organisiert durch China Highlights. Wir haben den Jadedrachenschneeberg besucht, wurden in Baisha durch einen Naxi-Schamanen in die Bilderschrift der Naxi eingeführt, waren in der Tigersprungschlucht und sind durch die Altstadt von Lijiang gebummelt. Unser Guide Alice hat uns super geführt (englisch), ist auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen und wir hatten viel Spass und tolle Gespr?che miteinander. Ein tolles Erlebnis. more

Trip to Guilin and Yangshuo
Lele was our guide in Guilin. He is a professional in every way. He is kind, considerate, easy to talk to and has a great personality. He had every small detail of our trip taken care of in advance. He went before we arrived and made sure our hotel rooms in Guilin and Yangshuo had the best views, and the views were beautiful. He introduced us to the Night Market, which we loved. He adjusted the itinerary to make sure on our last day we were not exhausted as we headed to the airport. Because of Lele's knowledge, insights, and great conversion we had a trip we will always remember. If you travel to Guilin make sure you use China Highlights for a first class trip and make sure you ask for Lele as your guide, you will be very happy you did. more
