Yunnan Travel [No Need to Look for Guides After Reading This]
Travel in the extraordinary 2021. Yunnan is indeed worth a visit. Recently, the epidemic in Ruili has been cleared, and we also set off to Yunnan for a 6-day trip before returning. Before going, I made my own strategy, searched for attractions and hotels, and planned the itinerary on my own. It was not only troublesome but also easy to fall into pitfalls. Later, a friend recommended Ashima, a local travel planner in Yunnan. In fact, knowing a local friend before a trip really saves a lot of trouble. I recommend Ashima; the itinerary he arranged was really good. The itinerary is also far from Ruili, so you can go with confidence.
PS: Since the attractions in Yunnan are scattered, it's also passive if the connections are not good. Here I will introduce our detailed itinerary, including accommodation, food, and attractions.
Later, we directly contacted Ashima, told him our needs, and he immediately gave us a super detailed Yunnan travel guide, which not only included all the food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation but also arranged our travel to Yunnan properly. Ashima could even arrange the most affordable and cost-effective prices for high-speed rail tickets and air tickets.
Now, there is almost no impact on travel; only a green code and mask are needed. Currently, scenic spots are limiting the number of visitors, so traveling now is equivalent to off-peak travel.
Actually, it depends on how you plan your Yunnan trip. If the planning is not good, it will greatly affect the travel experience.
We played for 6 days and basically visited all the interesting attractions in Yunnan, and the itinerary was very reasonable.
Friends who plan to visit Yunnan, hurry up and ask me for Ashima's contact info. You can send me a private message or leave a comment below to ask for it.

PS: Reservation, reservation, reservation. Important things are said three times. Attractions, hotels, etc. all need to be reserved, otherwise it will be very troublesome. All our hotels, attractions, and transportation were reserved by Ashima before we went, so we just had to enjoy the trip in Yunnan.
