Upon your arrival at the train station, our friendly guide will greet you with a “Your Way Holiday” sign and a warm smile, marking the beginning of your three-day journey into the heart of Anhui. As you settle in, your guide will introduce the itinerary in detail, giving you cultural context and personalized tips to help you enjoy each moment like a local. This trip is more than sightseeing; it is about connection with nature, with heritage, and with the people who live it every day. From hiking the breathtaking trails of the Yellow Mountains to experiencing life in traditional Huizhou villages, this tour is crafted to offer an insider’s perspective that blends discovery with meaning.
After lunch, your guide will accompany you to the foot of Mount Huangshan where you will begin your ascent via the Yungu cable car. This cable car ride is much more than just transportation because it offers your first breathtaking glimpse into a landscape where jagged granite peaks pierce the sky, ancient twisted pines cling stubbornly to sheer cliffs, and the famous Sea of Clouds often drifts mysteriously below. Mount Huangshan rises over 1,000 meters with a complex array of granite spires and formations sculpted by centuries of wind and rain. Your guide will enrich the experience by sharing the mountain’s deep cultural significance, explaining how its dramatic scenery has inspired countless poets, painters, and philosophers throughout Chinese history. This connection between nature and culture will set the tone for your entire journey allowing you to see the mountain not just as a place but as a living symbol of artistic and spiritual inspiration.
Upon reaching the summit area you will step onto the renowned Beginning-to-Believe Peak, a spot that lives up to its evocative name. Here, the panoramic views are nothing short of awe-inspiring. Your guide will point out famous rock formations such as the White Horse Head Rock and the Flower Scattering Valley, each with its own fascinating legend and unique shape carved by time. Many visitors say it is here they first truly believe in the magic of Huangshan. You are encouraged to pause as much as you like whether to capture photos, breathe in the fresh mountain air, or simply absorb the profound stillness that envelops you. Throughout this time your guide will carefully gauge your pace ensuring that no hidden gems in the swirling mist go unnoticed and that the experience matches your personal energy and curiosity.
Later your journey continues to Bright Summit, the mountain’s second highest peak standing at 1,860 meters. Due to its central location Bright Summit offers arguably the best vantage point on Huangshan for a full 360-degree sweep of the endless peaks and the ever-changing Sea of Clouds. On clear days you might witness the sun setting behind the clouds casting a golden glow over the landscape, a mesmerizing spectacle your guide knows exactly how to help you capture whether through tips for the perfect photo or finding the ideal spot to watch the light fade. As you explore this serene summit your guide will also share lesser-known stories about the mountain’s unique ecology and spiritual symbolism enriching your appreciation of Huangshan’s natural and cultural layers. As daylight softens you will follow a peaceful forested trail back to the cable car station descending gracefully while carrying with you a deep sense of tranquility and connection to this extraordinary place.
After descending the mountain, your guide and driver will be waiting to take you back to your hotel. Along the way, your guide can recommend local dishes for dinner or even share a few tips about Huangshan’s night life or quiet corners to explore if you still have energy. Whether you choose to rest or take a short evening walk near your hotel, our team ensures a smooth end to your day. You're not just being dropped off, you're being looked after—every step of the way.
After breakfast, your private guide and driver will escort you from Huangshan to Jiangxi Huangling, a captivating village celebrated for its extraordinary cliff-side architecture and deeply rooted mountain culture. The scenic drive winds through rolling hills and expansive terraced fields, offering peaceful views of rural life in southern China. Throughout the journey, your guide will share fascinating insights into the region’s history, traditional customs, and the relationship between the local people and their environment. Upon arrival, your guide will personally assist you as you navigate the village’s steep, winding pathways and intricate wooden terraces, ensuring you explore at a comfortable, unhurried pace. Their deep knowledge and engaging storytelling bring the ancient homes and local way of life vividly to life, making your visit not only educational but profoundly immersive. They will introduce you to the cultural significance of the village and its inhabitants, helping you understand how centuries of tradition have shaped this remarkable mountain community.
Huangling Village is renowned for its ingenious construction where multi-story wooden houses cling precariously to steep cliffs, creating a breathtaking vertical landscape unlike any other. As you walk along narrow stone staircases, wooden bridges, and terraced lanes, you will have the opportunity to explore artisan workshops where local craftsmen still practice age-old skills. You can also sample authentic local delicacies offered at small village stalls, savoring flavors unique to the region. Your guide will explain the architectural techniques that have preserved these remarkable homes for centuries despite the challenging terrain and climate. They will also share captivating anecdotes about village traditions, seasonal festivals, and daily life, offering you a rare glimpse into a culture that remains vibrantly alive. Whether you choose to visit the local museum, engage with residents, or simply soak in the sweeping panoramic views of the valley below, your guide will carefully tailor the experience to your interests, allowing you to truly travel like a local and connect deeply with this extraordinary place.
In the afternoon, your guide and driver will accompany you back to Huangshan or directly to the train station for your high-speed bullet train journey back to Shanghai. During the ride, your guide will recap the day’s highlights and provide useful tips for your time in Shanghai, ensuring you feel prepared and inspired for the next leg of your trip.

Dear Ms. Angelika Hägele,
Thank you for your message.
Yes, you can take a direct high-speed train from Huangshan North Station to Hong Kong West Kowloon Station, which takes approximately 5.5 hours. It’s a convenient option if you prefer to head directly to Hong Kong after your tour.
