Private journeys shaped by someone who grew up here.
Yunnan changes with the season. These experiences run for a few weeks, a few months, or on one specific day each week. I will confirm the best available date before you book.
Rainy-season forest walking, local knowledge and a meal made together.
Meet valley vendors, shop the stalls and cook lunch in a Bai home.
Availability depends on weather, local calendars and operating conditions. Dates are confirmed individually.

These are real, verified reviews from my guests on GetYourGuide — for the guides on my team who looked after them. This is the team you'll be travelling with.
"Lulu was amazing!! I've never had such a great guide, she really went above and beyond. I'd give 10 stars if I could. Highly recommended — I saw the old town, learned a lot, and connected with Lulu's friendly heart!"
"Luna organized everything perfectly from start to finish — friendly, professional, always helpful. Her English is excellent and her knowledge impressed me most. I'd highly recommend her to anyone."
"My guide Mr. Tang was fantastic. Not only does he speak perfect German, he was kind and caring. If you're a German speaker, ask for Mr. Tang — I can only recommend this tour."
"Jing and Lulu were great guides — very friendly and really knew the local history and Naxi culture."
"Saw so much of Lijiang Ancient Town — visited how paper was made here in the past, experienced a tea-making ceremony, and saw Black Dragon Pool. A lot packed into one day."
“We had a wonderful weekend with Han, a guide selected for us by Vicky. She was really kind and well prepared! We chose a day in Weishan, including Weibaoshan, and a day in Shaxi, where we also visited Shibaoshan and Jianchuan Old Town and its Sunday market. Everything was so interesting and beautiful, and the pace of the trip was perfect. Thank you so much for this experience!”
"Vicky helped build a bespoke private tour exactly catered to our needs. We wanted a side of Shaxi you can't find in the guidebooks, and our tour with Han was an absolute highlight of our China trip — the Friday market, then her homestay off the beaten track. A true local experience that fed our bellies and soul!"
"An absolutely fantastic experience — the three-hour ride in Shangri-La. Beautiful spots, no other tourists, just us, our guides and their horses. We could control our own horses, not just be led by a rope. Most importantly, the horses seemed well cared for."
"Had a great time on a 3-hour ride! Run by a very kind and welcoming family. Highly recommended!!"
"Vicky was incredible at organizing this, especially as it was a very last-minute request! Extremely helpful and went above and beyond — even replying to my messages in the small hours to make sure everything was perfectly set up. Thanks to her quick responses and seamless coordination, the whole experience with Rita was flawless. Highly recommend booking through her!"
Local guides, shared meals and the small moments between destinations.
I'm Bai, born and raised in Dali. This is my home: indigo cloth drying in village courtyards, Erhai Lake changing with the light, and mountain paths my family has known for generations.
I've worked in Yunnan travel for ten years. What still moves me is how often a first visit becomes a return. I believe everyone has a Yunnan of their own — a place here that feels as though it has been waiting for them.
My approach is simple: take care of the person in front of you. When you message, you reach me, not a call centre. I build each trip around your pace, interests and practical needs, then match you with the right guide from my local team. From Dali and Lijiang to Shangri-La, the tea mountains and quieter corners beyond the usual route, we handle the details so you can experience the place properly.
Everyone has a Yunnan.
My job is to help you find yours.
Message me your dates and what you're into. I reply same day myself — a real person in Dali, not a bot.
You get a day-by-day plan and a fixed price. Tweak it freely. A small deposit locks it in.
Weather forecasts, what to pack, last-minute tweaks — I'm your concierge from the moment you book, not just on the day.
Your guide, driver, rooms, food — all sorted by my team. Pay the balance when you arrive. You just enjoy Yunnan.
Tell me what you have in mind. I’ll tell you honestly what works — no hard sell.
Pre-filled and ready — add your dates, group size and language, hit send. I reply same day.
WhatsApp VickyThanks — I'll be in touch within a day.
Some of the best things in Yunnan don't run daily. Message me to time your trip around them.
For a few short weeks each summer, the mountains fill with wild mushrooms. Forage with a local Bai guide, then cook and eat what you pick over a campfire. Once the rains stop, it's gone for the year.
Shaxi's market only trades on Fridays. Haggle on the old Tea-Horse Road, then cook a Bai feast in a family courtyard.
