Alpine Treasures & Cultural Encounters
Experience Yunnan beyond the postcards: Track wild snub-nosed monkeys through primeval forests, sip Tibetan wine in a century-old church, and walk towards China’s lowest-latitude glacier — all while sleeping at comfortable choices and feasting on wood-fire chicken, alpine trout, and chef-curated wild mushrooms (porcini & matsutake) in hidden courtyards.
Highlights
