5.00I had a wonderful time! My guide was Coco. She was wonderful. She was easy to get along with, spoke amazing English, took great photos, and made navigating the par so so easy! I recommend this tour to anyone who has the free day. It was amazing to see all of the sights and you will have the opportunity to ask someone lots of questions about life in China.

5.00We did the avatar mountain and Tianzi mountain with Hannah as our guide. The morning was perfect weather and we saw all avatar mountain in all irs glory, after lunch it started to get cloudy but we had the most of it. We really enjoyed the ride in the cable car as rhe views were amazing and after that Hannah suggested that we did a slightly longer route that turned out to be really nice and beautiful.

5.00It’s a very nice place. My favorite part was de cable car and the elevator. I learned more about the Chinese culture. The view was cloudy but my guide Hanna did the best to take us to the best spots of this beautiful place. Special thanks to her for being so kind with us.

5.00Our guide Max was able to speak English and mandarin, he quickly realized it was our first time in China and assisted us in figuring out Alipay and food. Max was also very knowledgeable about the park and efficiently got us through the lines and around the park. Unfortunately the park was foggy and we couldn’t see much, Max realized this and even took us to somewhere else that was perfect for the situation.
Best day exploring zhangjiajie with Jean :)

5.00We did a 1-day private tour of Zhangjiajie national forest. It was a beautiful and unique place, pictures do not do it justice. But what made the day was our guide Jean. She was such an amazing guide (and photographer), so sweet and knowledgeable, teaching us about the history of zhangjiajie. She knew all the best photo spots and took many great pics and videos of me and my partner, such a great souvenir. I mentioned that I wanted to look at some silver jewelry and she took us to a shop after the tour ended. We then asked for dinner recs and she walked us to a place she likes and we asked her to join us for dinner. Having dinner with her was one of the highlights. After dinner she took us to an amazing local performance of the history and myths of the area, and made sure we got great seats :) Jean is the best.
Out of this world! Incredible!

5.00The most amazing experience we have ever had! It was absolutely incredible. The views were out of this world, the cable car was fantastic it was peaceful and the scenery was perfect! Our tour guide Coco was the best! Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about where we were but she answered our questions about culture, recommendations for dining, everything. She went at a pace that we were comfortable with, not once complaining but actually encouraging for us to stop and take photos and take our time. She was our personal photographer and just overall friendly and comfortable to be around. There was a lot of steps and walking but so so worth it!
Magnificent Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

5.00Our group of 8 pax booked a 5- day tour of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. Our tour operator, Andy, was super- efficient and flexible. He customised our itinerary according to our needs The views at the Avatar mountain was stunning and the beauty of the landscape magnificent. Our excellent tour guide, Vicky Liu, navigated us through the various attractions with ease. She guided us to the best viewpoints for photography. She had a deep knowledge and was able to explain the history of each place. We appreciated that we were able to skip the long queues at the park entrance and Bailing elevator because of the purchased VIP entrance tickets. Vicky also recommended us to very good local Hunan restaurants and we got to taste the best of Hunan cuisine. The driver was also very friendly and punctual throughout the trip. We would definitely recommend this tour. .
