A combination of amazing landscapes to see in China
The idea of this tour is to connect Zhangjiajie by land to Guilin, two regions considered to be among the most beautiful in China. From the Zhangjiajie Forest Park, with its thousands of rocky pinnacles entangled in dense subtropical vegetation, you will descend further south towards long isolated regions mainly inhabited by ethnic minorities in villages out of time : Furong a Miao village hanging on the cliff of a waterfall; the ancient city of Fenghuang, the Dong village of Zhaoxing renowned for its wooden architectures, and Ping’an in the heart of the Longji rice terraces ranked in the top 5 of the most beautiful rice fields in China… An unforgettable journey of great diversity, which will end with the discovery of the famous karst landscapes of the Li River between Guilin and Yangshuo.

A huge thank you in particular to Vincent, our guide in Beijing, who was exceptional: remarkably efficient, ultra-competent, knowing the city like the back of his hand and speaking impeccable French. The traditional medicine experience was a real highlight, and once again Vincent played a key role thanks to his perfect translation. The only downside was that the hotel in Beijing was not really suitable for three people, the third bed being a simple wooden plank with a very thin mattress.We also enjoyed our stay in Zhangjiajie. Sylvie is very kind and diligent. We would have liked a little more flexibility or anticipation regarding the second day on Tianmen Mountain. Unfortunately, the visit was of no interest and could have been changed if we had known the day before that bad weather was forecast at various sites, despite having expressed our fears to our contact person.
We enjoyed meeting the Miao people and were made very welcome by the hostess.
Our driver was also very friendly, but perhaps we would have appreciated a little more explanation from him during the day spent exploring the country.
We spent a lot of time waiting, not really knowing what we were going to do or should do.
We would have liked to discover the Colours of China workplace and spend time with the volunteers and children.
Finally, our last stop in the Yangshuo region was a huge coup, thanks in particular to Jane, who was extremely competent, dedicated and flexible. We really bonded with her and are sure to stay in touch in the future.
Thank you again for your professionalism and guidance. This trip was a wonderful discovery and a real coup de coeur for China. We hope to be back very soon!

“That’s it, it’s over and it was perfect! Exactly what I was looking for! Bravo! The route, the hotels, between authenticity and comfort, lots of great human encounters, lots of sport, and the best season with no one on the trails, only locals. Honestly, I imagine the summer months and I feel very lucky!”

Hi Serge,
I’m currently on the train back to Wuhan. My trip went well 🙂 I finally had a good time with the Miao and Dong people.
I was particularly lucky enough to attend a lusheng festival and a Dong wedding. I will keep lasting memories of them. However, I note for my future adventures that even if I love having lunch or tea at a local’s house, staying there takes me a little too far outside of my comfort zone. . Moreover, in terms of balance between authenticity and comfort, I particularly appreciated the Lost World Inn in Chengyang, an old wooden house that has been particularly well restored and decorated.
The owners were also very welcoming. The rest of the trip was very good, and I thank you for that. You can also pass on my congratulations to François for his professionalism and kindness. .
Thank you again and Happy Chinese New Year! .
