Victor is an excellent tour guide, who is knowledgeable, kind and extremely hardworking. He has a deep understanding of this part of China and clearly loves what he is doing. In our small family group's experience, he related extremely well to our different backgrounds (Africa, North America), did a great job catering to our diverse dietary requirements, and was very good with young children. The driver, Mr Zhou, was also excellent. We highly recommend Victor and this tour for a very interesting and rich experience in China, and we wish both Victor and Mr Zhou very well. Alison & Mutarr

I wouldn’t normally use a tour company. But I decided to this time because of how quickly China closes off areas during the pandemic and how little communication gets translated into English. I decided to do this tour with a guide so that if there were an outbreak, I could rely on them for information and to get out of the area quickly. My guide in Zhangjiajie was Tony. He did his best to make me feel welcome, and show me the best of his area. Zhangjiajie is very wet - 250days/year, so make sure you’re prepared with a proper poncho, dry sac, waterproof shoes, quick-dry clothes etc. The first day I was there it poured. Despite having a poncho on, I still ended up with a wet bag and wet clothes. Glad I had a life proof case on my phone or I wouldn’t be able to have gotten any photos. During our days together, he was very good about choosing local lunch spots and introducing me to the local specialities, I happily ate the “street food” that he introduced me to that was near my hotel (The Pullman)- and ended up going back to this area for other meals. It was cheap, tasty, and easy to get to. Tony has excellent English, and a rich knowledge about the local people and traditions. It’s true what others have posted about the Chinese tourists literally pushing their way through for things, and huge queues. I’m an early riser, so I was shocked that Tony suggested we start at 10am most days; however, his logic was sound. All the Chinese tour busses are up and heading out at 730/8am and then in they are in the queues. If we had gone at that time, I would have been standing for hours for the elevator or cable cars instead of using the hotel gym or having a leisurely breakfast. Avoid places like this all together on a Chinese National Holiday, there will be no hiding from the hordes then! I went for a weekend (Sat-Mon), and not on a Chinese holiday, but it was still hard to get some photos, and I still had to queue for things (30ish min) because of the numbers of tourists. If I were to go again, I would do 2-3 days in the National Park alone (Hallelujah Mountain, Mount Tianzi) but do more actual trekking. You can see the “highlights” of the park in 1 day, if you take the various shuttle busses between places. However, there are several paths that allow you to walk up or down the mountainside. You can take the cable car up (have your camera ready!), and then it is possible to walk down, but apparently it takes 3-4hrs, and there are several thousand stairs. I wanted to do that, but was short on time so ended up taking the cable car down. The national park does close late afternoon, so it’s important to start your descent early enough. If you choose to hike up, then you’ll probably want an early start to your day. The Zhangjiajie flights are notoriously late due to weather, so try to schedule one for the early evening, to avoid being up all night. The best time to go will be March/April or Oct/Nov. During the summer some things are closed because of too much rain, during the winter, some things are closed due to snow/ice. I highly recommend China Highlights tours, and if you come to Zhangjiajie, ask for Tony!

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!

This was a 2day private tour in Zhangjiajie organized by our amazing tour guide Ms Grace. We started with the Son of Heaven Mountain (Tianzishan) by cable-car, the view was incredible. After that she took us to Yuanjiajie, the Avatar rock, this was astonishing scenery. Then we visited Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, and walked on the longest glass bridge, which is 430m long and over 300m above the ground. In the second day Ms Grace took us to the top of Tianmen Mountain by a the 30 min cable car. We very much enjoyed the views and the walking along the glass plank-road against the cliff. Ms Grace is a friendly person; she knows the area very well. She has helped me a lot to get back my wallet after I left Zhangjiajie, which I left it at the hotel after checking out. Thank you Grace.
