Day 2: Xin'an River Trekking

In the morning, you will depart from Tunxi to Shendu dock, which will take approximately one hour by car. Upon arrival, board a ferry to cross the Xin'an River and participate in a delightful hiking excursion. Journeying along the river, you will immerse yourself in a picturesque landscape. The Huizhou-style ancient dwellings with black tiles and white walls sit harmoniously amidst lush and green trees. The villages, built by the river and home to warm-hearted villagers, exude authentic and rustic charms.

In spring, the trails are adorned with blooming rapeseed fields. During harvest season, the bountiful loquats or oranges in the orchards create a scenic view and provide an opportunity to experience rural life. After the tour, you will return to Tunxi by vehicle.

Day 3: Sunset over Mount Huangshan

Today, drive to Huangshan Scenic Area (about 1.5 hours) and ascend the mountain by cable to enjoy its breathtaking beauty and reach the White Goose Station. Step into the Beihai Scenic Area, a picturesque window to the grandeur of Mt. Huangshan. Noted for its abundant and eccentric peaks, one such example is a peak where a stone formation resembling a monkey sits in fascination over the sea of clouds. Should fortune favor you, you stand a chance to behold the marvelous spectacle of this cloud sea.

However, even if the cloud sea eludes your visit, the experience of basking in the glowing sunset atop the mountain will still leave you spellbound, compelling you to linger and lose track of time.

Day 4: Hike on the Mount Huangshan

Continue the captivating hike. For experienced hikers, there are two thrilling options to consider: the Lotus Peak, which is the highest peak of Huangshan, or the perilous and steep Tiandu Peak. Along the way, you will be greeted by the majestic Pines, while navigating through narrow and rugged trails that will test your physical strength and bravery.

After your hiking, have a rest in your hotel. Then, savor the mesmerizing sunset views from the mountaintop, as golden hues cast upon the surrounding peaks.

Second Honeymoon My wife and I celebrated our 20th anniversary by spending a few weeks touring around Asia. We loved how Odynovo worked with us to craft a tour of what we wanted to see and how we wanted to see it. This was our first time traveling with a private tour guide, and it was truly amazing. they took care of all transportation, tickets, and everywhere we went we had someone who not only spoke our language, but was also very well-versed in the places we were visiting. We saw Beijing and then took a bullet train to Xi'an. In both cities we had tour guides who had done this "a thousand times," and as a result knew all the tricks on where to take the best pictures, what lines to stand in, where to eat, and what not to waste your time seeing. At one point our guide pulled out ponchos from her backpack when it started to rain, while another helped us haggle for a good price on a new suitcase. We were surprised by how much we loved China, and it is safe to say that is because of the quality of service we got from Odynovo. Oh, and the hotels were great, too! In our first hotel my wife fell in love with her breakfast soup that she had to have every morning, while in Xi'an we were right around the corner from the Muslim Night Market and were able to get to it in less than 5 minutes of walking.We are already looking to see what tours we will be doing next through Odynovo, as the service was amazing, the quality was remarkable, and the cost was very worth it for what we received.

Fabulous! We had a fabulous experience with our guide and Odynovo walking the Great Wall of China, and all other sites in Beijing. We loved our Peking duck dinner. It was fabulous. Thank you, Sammie/Jing for a great experience.

Amazing travel experience My name is Zarah M. Babangida a Nigerian and i visited Beijing with my colleagues from the office. During our 5 day stay in Beijing, Ms. Eva Ma, was our Tour guide and from the minute we came through the Arrival Gate of the Airport, we were embraced by her alluring smile and warm welcome. She remained consistent with her warmth, a kind and intelligent professional who exuded unique passion not just for her job as a tour guide but, even more so as a proud Chinese woman. Her outstanding insight and knowledge of the sweet Chinese history and heritage left us in awe. I couldn't be more proud and thankful that she was assigned to our group and she made our stay exciting, fun-filled effortless and knowledge packed. I absolutely commend her dedication to work which she depicted throughout our stay. I recommend her to every visiting tourist because to know Eva, is to love her. If it were up to me, i will increase her bonuses or upgrade her salary as i am sure most tourists would want or revisit for her sake first and then perhaps other reasons.Thank you Eva and keep the passion up🙌.
