5.00Very enjoyable tour of Zhangjiajie to see the Avatar’s inspired mountains and beautiful scenic walk through the forest. Our tour guide, Yolin, was outstanding. She is very knowledgeable of the area and sites and super flexible in accommodating our group of 16 travelers. I highly recommend her if you plan to take this tour or any others in Fenghuang and zhangjiajie areas.
Great experience, perfect guide

5.00Had a great time with Daniel guiding us on our tour. We booked a two day tour and he was the guide on the first day. He was great, showed us some secret paths which led to very minimal tourists so we felt like we had the place to ourselves. We had a small group of 12 people so taking photos was easy when it was just us. He was also very friendly and shared his personal story and life. So it was great getting to know his upbringing and authentic life in the country. Additionally, he helped translate for us at times and would help other tourists too when they seemed lost. Can’t recommend him enough. 10/10.
The best Daniel the guide

5.00Daniel was an excellent guide with outstanding English and a stunning demeanour! If you are lucky Daniel may also share a love song (sung by himself) and will make a memory movie for you instantly while you take your last cable car back to the bus! Daniel is an excellent photographer as well so he can even take beautiful memory shots on your camera! Choose Daniel anytime you can! Thank you for an amazing day!
Unforgettable!
