How to Plan Lijiang Shangri-La Tours in Yunnan?
For those planning Lijiang Shangri-La tours, we recommend spending 5 to 8 days in the region. It is more convenient to arrive in Lijiang first, as it offers more flights and high-speed train connections. In Lijiang, explore its old towns, snow-capped mountains, and immerse yourself in Naxi culture. On the way to Shangri-La, don't miss the opportunity to view Tiger Leaping Gorge. In Shangri-La, visit its old towns, monasteries, and lakes for a unique experience.
If you wish to add more depth to your Lijiang Shangri-La tour, consider including Lugu Lake, Tiger Leaping Gorge hike, and Meili Snow Mountain in your itinerary. Alternatively, you can extend your tour to include Kunming, Dali, Yuanyang Rice Terraces, and Dongchuan Red Land. Whether your interests lie in ethnic culture, hiking, photography, adventure, ancient town, or food, we offer tours at the best prices to cater to your preferences.
