Pick up service is arranged at your Zhangjiajie hotel in the early morning, our guide will meet you at your hotel lobby with a welcome sign "Zhangjiajie Private Tour". Then drive you to the Zhangjiajie National Park.

Your tour begins with a ride on the remarkable Bailong Elevator, an engineering marvel built into the sheer cliff face of the mountain. Known as the “Hundred Dragons Elevator,” this glass elevator is one of the tallest and fastest outdoor lifts in the world. It swiftly carries you up over 300 meters to the top of the mountain, offering dramatic panoramic views of the towering sandstone peaks that make Zhangjiajie so famous. At the summit, you will explore Yuanjiajie Mountain, the heart of the Zhangjiajie Scenic Area and the inspiration for the floating mountains in the movie Avatar. Accompanied by your experienced English-speaking guide, you will discover the area's iconic natural formations such as the "Hallelujah Mountain," "First Bridge Under Heaven," and "Avatar Pillar." Your guide will share fascinating stories about the local geology, legends, and the cultural significance of the area, enriching your experience with expert insights and helping you navigate the scenic trails with ease.

Upon arrival at the summit, you will spend approximately three hours hiking through the breathtaking landscape of Yuanjiajie Mountain. This area gained worldwide fame as the inspiration for the floating Hallelujah Mountains in James Cameron’s Oscar-winning film Avatar. The towering sandstone pillars rise dramatically from the forest floor, creating a surreal and otherworldly atmosphere that feels like walking through a dream. Your experienced guide will accompany you throughout the hike, leading you along well-marked trails and taking you to the best viewpoints, including the renowned "Avatar Hallelujah Mountain" and "The First Bridge Under Heaven." From the observation platforms, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of steep peaks shrouded in mist, deep valleys, and lush greenery — a paradise for both nature lovers and photographers.

After lunch, your guide will accompany you on a visit to Tianzi Mountain, one of the most iconic peaks in the Wulingyuan Scenic Area. Known as the “Monarch of the Peak Forest,” Tianzi Mountain offers breathtaking views of towering sandstone pillars, often shrouded in mist and clouds, creating a dreamlike landscape that has inspired poets and painters for centuries. The scenery here is often described as the "natural beauty of primitive scenery," a fitting description for an area untouched by modern development and shaped entirely by the forces of nature. As you explore, your guide will share the fascinating legends behind the mountain’s name and point out famous viewpoints such as the Helong Park, Fairy Offering Flowers, and Imperial Writing Brush Peaks.

After descending the mountain by cable car, your guide will accompany you to explore the Ten-Mile Natural Gallery, one of the highlights of the Zhangjiajie trip. This scenic area stretches for over ten miles through a picturesque valley, flanked by dramatic stone formations on both sides. As you stroll or ride along the route, you'll discover more than 200 remarkable natural rock sculptures formed by millions of years of erosion and weathering. These formations resemble lifelike figures of people, animals, and mythical scenes.  Your knowledgeable guide will provide fascinating background stories and folklore associated with each formation, helping you appreciate not just the beauty, but also the cultural symbolism behind the landscape.
