Xian - Zhangjiajie by Plane

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park - Begin your journey with a private driver collecting you from your pre-arranged hotel in Xi’an. Relax during the smooth transfer to the airport, as your flight tickets are already arranged for a hassle-free start. Upon arrival in Zhangjiajie, a local driver will be ready to welcome you and ensure a smooth transfer to your self-booked hotel in the city.

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park: Bailong Elevator, Yuanjiajie, Tianzi Mountain

Bailong Elevator - After a short rest at your hotel, your private guide and driver will take you to the starting point of an exciting day. First on the list is the famous Bailong Elevator. At an impressive 326 meters tall, this engineering wonder is the fastest elevator in the world. In just 1 minute and 58 seconds, you’ll ascend the cliff face. As the elevator rises, the view changes from the enclosed shaft to a stunning panorama of towering sandstone pillars. These natural formations, shaped over millions of years, seem to reach for the sky, creating a sight that’s both surreal and awe-inspiring.

Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area of Zhangjiajie - Once you exit the elevator, you’ll find yourself in the heart of Yuanjiajie, the inspiration for the floating mountains in Avatar. Stroll along the well-paved paths, and you’ll see iconic landmarks like the Hallelujah Mountain, officially known as the South Pillar of Heaven. Its slender, towering form against the clear sky is a photographer’s dream. Each step reveals a new angle of these magnificent sandstone peaks, with your guide sharing fascinating stories about their geological formation and local legends.

Tianzi Mountain - Next, head to Tianzi Mountain via the Tianzi Mountain Cableway. The cable car ride offers a different perspective of Zhangjiajie’s grandeur. As you glide above the lush forests and between the rugged peaks, enjoy the panoramic views of the vast expanse of mountains stretching as far as the eye can see. Your guide will point out unique rock formations that resemble animals or mythical figures, adding an extra layer of charm to the journey.

Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge - The excitement continues at the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge. Suspended a dizzying 300 meters above the canyon floor and stretching 430 meters across, it’s the world’s longest glass bridge. As you step onto the transparent glass surface, your heart will race. Look down, and you’ll see the canyon’s depths, with lush greenery, winding streams, and rocky cliffs far below. On a sunny day, the glass reflects the sky, creating an illusion of walking on air. On foggy days, the mist swirling around the bridge adds an otherworldly atmosphere. Capture incredible photos and feel the thrill of this once-in-a-lifetime experience, all while your guide provides interesting insights into the bridge’s construction and the canyon’s geology. At the end of this action-packed day, your guide and driver will ensure a comfortable transfer back to your hotel in Zhangjiajie, where you can relax and recharge for the adventures that lie ahead.

Tianmen Mountain-Tianmen Cave - Back to Xi’an by plane

Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park - Meet your guide at the hotel, and set off for a remarkable day at Tianmen Mountain. Begin your journey by taking the world’s longest cable car ride. Spanning a great distance, the cable car offers a panoramic view of the city, the surrounding mountains, and deep valleys as you ascend. It’s a slow-moving aerial tour, allowing you to soak in the beauty of Zhangjiajie from a unique perspective. Once at the top, explore the thrilling cliffside walkways. Built along the edge of the cliffs, these paths provide heart-stopping views. Look down and see the vertical drop; look out and take in the vast expanse of mountains and forests. The sense of danger and the beauty of the landscape combine to create an exhilarating experience.

Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park - The highlight of the day is undoubtedly Tianmen Cave. This colossal natural wonder is a cave that cuts right through the mountain. Standing at 131.5 meters high, 57 meters wide, and 60 meters deep, it’s an awe-inspiring sight. You can choose to take the escalator or challenge yourself by climbing the steep “Heaven’s Ladder” with 999 steps to reach the cave. Standing in front of the cave, feel the power of nature as wind rushes through and sunlight filters in. The sheer scale of the formation is humbling and inspiring, making it a must-see attraction in Zhangjiajie.

Zhangjiajie - At the end of the tour, you have the flexibility to choose your departure point.
