5.00A very good tour. Sees UNESCO site and guides very knowledgeable and helpful. Gives us very good tips on what else to see and able to recommend things off the beaten path. For eg if you can do Huang long quicker you can see the songpan ancient town which is quite an amazing experience with not many tourists. 5 star experience
Amazing tour

5.00This was an excellent tour. Professional and well organized. Our guide Michelle was fantastic. She was knowledgeable, accommodating, and very thoughtful. We traveled with two younger kids and Michelle was very attentive to all of our needs. Jiuzhaigo was beautiful with all of the emerald and blue colored lakes, perfect reflections, lush forests, and amazing waterfalls. Huanglong was equally beautiful with unbelievable turquoise colored pools, unique travertine formations, and snow capped mountains in the distance. One thing to note, Jiuzhaigo reaches an elevation of 3100 meters and Huanglong 3500 meters. So it is cool even during summer and the air is quite thin. Overall, a truly memorable and wonderful experience!

5.00Jason is wonderful and warm-heart guide, willing to share what he knows not only the attractions but also some background stories and took us to the places we'd asked in advance to see, plus lots of others.The 3 days of our journey was smooth, well planned and memorable .We have been very happy and we will choose Real North Adventure for the next journey.Thank you so much 😊

5.00Jason was a friendly, accommodating guide. He planned activities he thought I'd be interested in and was flexible too if I decided I wanted to spend more or less time at an attraction at the time. He recommended exciting activities, as well as good hotels and planned everything so that the days ran smoothly. Jason is an experienced guide, with connections to people in all different places. There were some pleasant unplanned activities he organised on his own initiative that ended up being highlights of the trip, e.g. a traditional Sichuanese meal at a family restaurant in Songpan. I would have found it very difficult to navigate Chengdu and Jiuzhaigou on my own, with Jason I could relax and just enjoy!
Spectacular views with a knowledgeable and excellent driver and guide

5.00Jiuzhaigou is spectacular and worth the long drive to get there. Jason was an excellent driver and guide. He was knowledgeable about the Qiang and Tibetan people who live in the area and about the park. He was kind and attentive to our every need, kept us well fed and supplied with water and snacks. We felt very well taken care of.
