I recently had the pleasure of tour from Yunnan to Hainan for 11 days and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. The trip took me through some of the most beautiful and scenic places in China. First of all, the travel agency provided exceptional service throughout our trip. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that we had a memorable experience. Otherwise, the hotels in both Yunnan and Hainan were top-notch. They were clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities one could ask for. And we traveled Lijiang Old Town, Dali and Kunming, which is the most breathtaking natural attractions. In Hainan, we play around from Sanya to Haikou. The food in Yunnan is unique and flavorful. From the famous grilled cheese in Shaxi to the spicy rice noodles in Kunming, the cuisine did not disappoint. In Hainan, the fresh seafood dishes I had in Sanya were some of the best I’ve ever tasted.
Overall, my trip from Yunnan to Hainan was one of the best travel experiences I have ever had. The scenery, food, people, and accommodations were all exceptional. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience the beauty and diversity of China.
