I just came back from Yunnan recently. I played for 7 days and 6 nights. This trip was really enjoyable. We only spent 2800 RMB for the whole trip, and visited popular attractions such as Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and Shangri-La. The most important thing is to find a particularly reliable tour guide Xixi. Not only did she take us to have fun, but she also saved a lot of money. If you also want to go to Yunnan, but don’t want to make a complicated strategy yourself, you can Contact [email protected].
She can help you customize a private itinerary for free.
Our 7-day itinerary is as follows:
DAY 1: Fly from Hong Kong to Kunming, guide Xixi to pick you up at the airport and arrange to stay at a hotel in Kunming.
DAY 2: Take the train to Dali in the morning, visit the Dali Ancient Town, check in the popular tourist attraction S Bay, and then stay at a hotel in Dali.
DAY 3: Take a boat trip to Jinsuo Island, visit the Santorini-like buildings, and have free time in Lijiang Dayan Ancient Town at night, and watch the complimentary “Lishui Jinsha” performance.
DAY 4: Visit the important towns on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, the First Bay of the Yangtze River, and Tiger Leaping Gorge, taste the Tibetan chieftain banquet at night, and stay in Shangri-La.
DAY 5: Visit the prayer wheels, Dancheng, and Pudacuo Forest Park in Shangri-La, and return to Lijiang for accommodation at night.
DAY 6: Visit Lashi Lake, Yulong Snow Mountain, and Shuhe Ancient Town, take the train back to Kunming in the evening, and check into the hotel in Kunming.
DAY 7: Send to the airport according to the return time, and end the pleasant Yunnan trip.
Price and cost-effectiveness
This 7-day and 6-night trip only cost 2800 yuan, including tickets to all attractions, hotel accommodation, three meals a day, and transportation costs. Compared with the Yunnan tour groups on the market that cost 4,000 or 5,000 yuan, it is really a lot more cost-effective! If you are like me, and want to have fun but don’t want to spend too much money, you can consider asking Xixi for help. She is very professional and can make an itinerary based on your time and budget to help you save money and worry. If you are interested, you can Contact [email protected]

Popular Attractions
There are so many attractions in Yunnan that you can’t finish them all, and each place has its own unique charm. During this trip, I was most impressed by the ancient city of Dali and the Dayan Ancient City in Lijiang. The ancient city of Dali has a strong sense of history. Walking on the quaint streets, it seems like traveling back in time. Lijiang Dayan Ancient Town is even more lively, especially at night, with brilliant lights, which is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. There is also Pudacuo Forest Park in Shangri-La, with magnificent scenery and fresh air, which is a good place to relax.
Food and accommodation experience
Don’t miss the food in Yunnan! Tour guide Xixi took us to taste many local specialties, such as cross-bridge rice noodles, mushroom hot pot, handmade yogurt and buffalo milk, each of which was unforgettable. And the hotels she arranged were very comfortable, with soft beds, clean and tidy environment, and a good sleep at night. The special car pick-up for the trip is also very convenient, avoiding the trouble of finding a car and ensuring safety.
The benefits of finding a tour guide
Many people like to travel independently, but for friends who come to Yunnan for the first time, finding a local tour guide can indeed save a lot of trouble. Professional guides like Xixi are not only familiar with the local conditions, but can also recommend some unknown niche attractions to avoid the embarrassment of tourists. And she can help you avoid many pitfalls, such as shopping traps, unreliable restaurants, etc. If you don’t want to bother making a guide yourself, but want to have a safe journey, you can consult Xixi, she will provide you with free consultation services.
How to avoid pitfalls
When traveling in Yunnan, never trust travel agencies on the street or group purchases that are too cheap. We didn’t have any forced shopping this time, and we visited classic attractions without wasting time. If you go by yourself, you may spend more money and take more detours. Therefore, finding a reliable guide is really a choice that gets twice the result with half the effort.
This trip to Yunnan made me very satisfied. Not only did I see the beautiful scenery, but I also experienced the local customs. If you also plan to travel to Yunnan, you may wish to consult tour guide Xixi. Her professional services will definitely make your journey smoother and more enjoyable! I hope this article can be helpful to your trip to Yunnan. Have fun!
The last time I traveled to Yunnan from Malaysia, Xixi helped me plan the trip. She also thoughtfully reminded me that the ultraviolet rays in Yunnan are relatively strong, and she suggested that I bring sun protection clothing and other protective equipment, which was very thoughtful.
