Pre-Tour - Stay overnight in Kunming
Arrive into Kunming the day before your tour is scheduled to begin in preparation of your private tour from Kunming to Guiyang. Visitors have the option to watch the Dynamic Yunnan show in the evening (additional fee), if interested. Otherwise, enjoy the evening at leisure in Kunming prior to your tour. Day 1 - Stay overnight in Xingyi To commence the tour, your tour guide will meet you at your Kunming Hotel Lobby. The first stop is the Shilin Stone Forest and it takes approximately 1.5 x hours from Kunming to the Stone Forest. In 2007, the Shilin Stone Forest Scenic Area was listed as one of Yunnan's UNESCO world heritage sites. It's home to a unique type of karst landform and offers spectacular views overlooking the landscape. Following the visit to the Stone Forest, enjoy lunch before you're transferred to Xingyi (approx.3.5 x hours). After arriving into Xingyi at your hotel, you'll enjoy the evening at leisure. |

Day 2 - Stay overnight in Xingyi
During the morning, you'll depart from your Xingyi Hotel and visit the Wanfenglin Scenic Area. In Chinese, the direct translation is the 'Ten Thousand Peak Forest' and when you arrive, you'll know why as there are karst formations as far as the eye can see! Aside from the karst landscape at Wanfenglin, there are surrounding mountains, waterfalls, villages and fields, providing an incredible beautiful scenic area for visitors. You're welcome to explore the area on foot as there are different trails or choose to take an electric shuttle for an additional fee. |

The first stop in the itinerary is a visit to a nearby Miao Ethnic Minority Village. The village, Basha Miao Ethnic Minority Village, is a small hunter-gatherer village known as the last tribe in China with guns! |
|
|
Visitors will explore the village and watch the local performance, which the villagers perform. This is a great insight into their traditional culture as well as a way to support the development/improve their living standards!
The village has become more 'developed' over recent years so if you're looking for a very remote and isolated village, please let us know instead as we can switch over the itinerary. |
|
|
After visiting Basha, you'll be transferred to Zhaoxing Dong Ethnic Minority Village. This is the largest Dong Ethnic Minority Village in China nestled in a valley between surrounding mountains and rice terraces. Zhaoxing Dong Village features drum towers, old houses and spectacular views (especially at night).
You'll get the opportunity to explore the village, check-in to their hotel and enjoy the local performance followed by dinner. A walk up to the viewpoint to see the night views is also an optional activity (no additional fee) for those interested. The evening is at leisure in Zhaoxing Dong Ethnic Minority Village. |

Thereafter, you'll walk to the nearby Tang'an Dong Ethnic Minority Village - which features a scenic walk along the trails and with spectacular views overlooking surrounding Rice Terraces!
