Take the spotlight to enjoy skiing hours on the 2,200 meter high level covered in pure white and feel the excitement of the fast and the furious on ice and snow!

Snow ATV/Snowmobiling: Ride the cool ATV/motorcycles to gallop on the soft white snow. Leave the clear trace rolled by the big tire behind to fully show the powerful charm of men.

Snow Tubing: The favored activities for family and groups to show your team spirit and laugh out loud together. Sit on the tube facing the blue sky and slide along the professional and safe snow trail to feel the thrilling sliding from the peak to the lower location freely.

After the exciting play, your guide will accompany you to the hotel on Xiling Snow Mountain and help you check in. Have a good rest!

(Note: all sports on ice and snow like skiing, Snow ATV, snowmobile, sledging, snow cubing, and so forth need extra but reasonable payment.)

Then take the sightseeing Cable Car (about 40 minutes) up to Riyueping (Sun and Moon Platform) (Altitude: 3,260 meters) for more natural appreciation. You will feel come from the earth to the paradise as you ascend there since charming sea of clouds shows there frequently. You can just stand quietly in front of the surrounding primitive forest or walk along the wood plank road to admire the soft clouds rolling near and far under the very clear blue sky like a mysterious piece of ocean that sometime submerges the summit of those lower mountains. Inhale the fresh and cool air here and think about where you are at this second! Besides, in some great sunny days, you will have a fabulous chance to see Mount Emei and Daxuetang Snow Peak far away.

After the visiting, take the cable car to come down. And then your guide and driver will escorted you back to your hotel in Chengdu. Have a good sleep!

Walk at leisure through the bamboo framed paths, and closely observe giant pandas of different ages eating bamboos, playing with each other, tumbling, climbing trees, etc. Don’t miss the chance to watch female pandas nursing their cubs in the nursery rooms. There is also a very informative Panda Museum for you to learn more scientific facts about Giant Pandas.

Following the pandas, you will be taken to a hidden spiritual Buddhist temple in the hustling downtown of Chengdu - Wenshu Temple. Marvel at the exquisite Buddhist architecture, soak in the reverent atmosphere, and wander on the peaceful paths.

Chengdu is famous for its relaxing and leisure pace throughout China, which will be proved after a stay in People's Park. Sit down, order a pot of Chinese tea, make a casual chat with your friends and watching locals indulging themselves in different kinds of folk entertainment – napping in a lively teahouse, playing mahjong, disco dancing, neck massage, ear cleaning… Next is an impressive trip to the famous Jinli Old Street.

Hi Wonder,

Thanks for your email. We are back home now after our three weeks tour to S. Korea and China, in which the Yangtze River cruise was a key part of the trip.

I have to tell you we enjoyed the cruise very much. Everything was as what we expected. And thanks for your help for not only booking the cruise for us but also answered all the questions we had...which helped us a lot in preparations.

The Century Oasis was a very nice river cruise ship and the people are professional. The room was very nice and food was very good. We were arranged with other English speaking people as a small group for local excursions which is a great experience. Overall, I would highly recommend this cruise.

We are planning more sightseeing trips to China such as Chengdu, Chongqing, Xinjiang, etc. We hope your company can help us for the arrangements in the future.

As 2024 is quickly drawing to close, we wish you all the best for the new year.

Yours sincerely,

Andy

Dear Mr Leo Li,

Good evening to you.

Thank you for planning my trip to Yunnan on 16-26/5/2024.

Although the trip started with an unwanted incident on the day of our arrival but overall it was a good trip especially in Dali and Lijiang. Both the tour guides, Sally and Rodney were attentive with good service and are knowledgeable.

I would say that the Kunming tour guide, Jenny was not at fault for not meeting us at the airport because she was given the wrong information that our flight was rescheduled to arrive at night instead of afternoon. She showed us the WeChat message. She is a friendly tour guide.

For your information, our visit to Shangri-la was average only. We missed out going up to turn the big wheel. Only realised it when we went back to the hotel. Anyway, it’s in the past.

Overall, the trip is wonderful with our bucket list ticked!

I am thinking of another trip to China also in May next year and would like to have your suggestion. Are you still with China Discovery?

Regards,

Ms Chai
