Join us on this guided group tour to visit one of the most popular natural landmarks in China, Huangshan Mountain. Our English-speaking tour guide will give you a call one day in advance to confirm the meeting time. On the day of the tour, please travel to Huangshan International Hotel (Number 31 Huangshan Road, Tunxi District, Huangshan city). We will pick you up from the lobby of the hotel at 7:30 am.
Take the coach from Hangshan city to the Huangshan Scenic Area. If the number of members in your group is less than ten, you will be sharing a coach with Chinese tourists but with an English-speaking tour guide by your side. Arrive at the entrance of Mount Huangshan between 08:30 am to 09:00 am and take the shuttle bus to Yungu Cable Car Station. You have the option of taking the cable car to the top of the mountain (own expense: CNY80 per person each way). However, in case you do not want to go for this option, you can walk your way to the top of the mountain, which takes around two and a half hours.
Admire the beauty of stunning peaks around you upon reaching the top. See White Goose Peak, Begin to Believe Peak, Black Tiger pines and Lion Peak among other natural landmarks. You can enjoy lunch at the top of the mountain by yourself if you want to (own expense).
Travel back to the cable car station after that. The coach will take you back to the meeting point in the city from there.

This tour was great - included the two things we really wanted to see (the terracotta army and the Hanyangling Museum) and we also got a great lunch and a visit to a local farmer's "cave house" which was an interesting insight into how people live outside the big cities.
Michael is a great guide, he speaks very good English and is very knowledgeable about the history and background of the archeological sites. The car was very comfortable with a good driver and plenty of water available. All in all an excellent tour, I highly recommend this if you're visiting Xi'an - you'll have a great time!
