Lijiang & Yunnan private tours with a local
Naxi old town, the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the Tiger Leaping Gorge trail.
Lijiang's old town is a maze of cobbled lanes and canals under the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the starting point for the best day hikes in southwest China: Tiger Leaping Gorge above the Jinsha River, and the villages of Shaxi and Dali further south. A local guide gets you out of the souvenir lanes and into the Naxi villages, and handles the altitude and the logistics of the high trail.
