I had this tour on January 8th, 2020. During the middle of the winter, where Zhangjiajie is liable to have foggy rainy weather - which does not lend itself well to the beautiful photos many people post of summer time in the park. With that being said, I had a truly wonderful time. My guide spoke good English for a non-native speaker. I could hold a conversation with him and he was very knowledgable about details of the park (ie: when it opened, types of rocks within the formations, info on the ethnic minorities in the park, etc). He was very kind and did his best to keep me dry despite me having a raincoat. He also had a good eye for where to take photos and how to take them! The tour was not walking intensive, utilizing the intrapark bus service often. This was simultaneously nice and disappointing for a young guy like me who likes to hike but was also two weeks into a cross China trek. After the tour he showed me where to eat, as I had worked up an appetite. And after eating he escorted me to my hotel via a taxi which was paid for by him. Overall, I highly recommend this tour. Get up early and get to the park especially during busy seasons. I think two people plus the guide is an ideal number of people ($115 each). Keep in mind this does NOT include the glass bridge which, frankly, I thought was overrated.

We had very nice days with Andy. We had a big delay due to thunderstorm in Shanghai. Andy was very spontaneous and changed our plans so we could still enjoy and see everything what was important for us. He knows a lot of nice places and routes without too many people. He suggested us nice and friendly hotels. He knows al lot about this region and Chinese history but he isn’t talking frequently. What we really enjoyed :) We can really recommend doing this tour with him!

Zhangjiajie was wonderful and a lot of that had to do with Victor. He adjusted the tour for our 2 young boys and they had a blast. The boys were super comfortable with him, often racing ahead to go hold hands with him. The accommodations were best at the Pullman in Wulingyuan and at the Sunshine in Zhiangjiajie itself. The Phoenix Grand in Fenghuang was dark and dated but admittedly the only 4 star hotel on the trip, and probably one of the fewer high end options in that city. The lunch and dinner recommendations throughout the trip were great. The van driver was very reliable and a safe driver. Our pick ups and drop-off were very late in the day and that wasn't a problem. What a great time!
