Thanks Gale for a great experience!
Gale was a fantastic guide and the trip was a seamless, enjoyable experience end to end. The tour logistics were well thought out, ensuring we made the most of our 2 days and I didn’t need to worry about a thing. Gale was friendly, accomodating, spoke great English. She knew the attractions well, and provided interesting insights throughout. She also proactively tailored elements and gave me options to cater to my specific interests and expectations. Thanks again for a memorable two days on Huangshan Mountain!

Excellent tour of Huangshan mountain
We had an amazing tour of Huangshan mountain. We were super lucky with the weather. It had snowed the night before and the sun broke through the clouds as our cable car approached the top giving us fantastic views. The views are exactly like the paintings. 🥰
Jesse has been giving tours of the mountain for over 20 years and her knowledge is quite extensive. She pointed out all the different views, shapes and stories behind them. Jesse speaks good English and she tailored our tour to our needs and interests and she was very patient and careful with my 90 year old father. Jesse was lovely and we enjoyed our time with her very much.

Huangshan Mountain
We had a great visit to Huangshan Mountain and our tour guide, Lacey, was very professional, spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about the mountain. We made a last minute decision to visit the mountain, but Sunny was able to accommodate us and communication with her was very good. We took the train to Huangshanbei station where Lacey picked us up and drove us to the mountain (about 1 hour drive). She then took us on a bus and cable car to the top of the mountain. This mountain is spectacular with amazing views. I highly recommend a visit and using Sunny Tours for your visit.

Yellow Mountain 1 day hike
Huangshan Yellow Mountain is breathtaking. We were lucky to have great weather during our hike, it was on the cooler side. Cloudy in the morning and everything cleared out in the afternoon. We also encountered a group of monkeys.
Our tour guide Jesse was really knowledgeable and pointed out several pine trees and rocks and the names they have been given throughout the years due to the shapes it resembles. We would have definitely lost our way in this huge mountain without her help. There are many hiking paths and lots of stairs, so be prepare for a good workout. This was our 2nd tour day with Jesse and we were very comfortable. She helped us take many wonderful pictures. Thank you Jesse for this wonderful memory!!
