Dali Tours

Nestled between the majestic Cangshan Mountains and the crystal-clear Erhai Lake, Dali is one of Yunnan's most captivating destinations. Once the capital of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom and the Kingdom of Dali, the city is rich in history, Bai ethnic culture, and breathtaking natural scenery.
 
Our Dali tours take you to the highlights of this charming ancient city, including the well-preserved Dali Ancient Town, picturesque Erhai Lake, the famous Three Pagodas, traditional Bai villages, and the beautiful Butterfly Spring. You can also explore the lakeside by bike, on foot, or by boat while enjoying spectacular views of the mountains and surrounding countryside.
 
Whether you're seeking cultural discovery, scenic landscapes, or a relaxing holiday, our flexible and tailor-made Dali tours offer the perfect way to experience one of China's most beautiful destinations.

Why make Dali tour? 

 
Dali is one of Yunnan's most enchanting destinations, where snow-capped mountains, a shimmering alpine lake, ancient towns, and the traditions of the Bai ethnic group come together. Once the capital of the historic Nanzhao and Dali kingdoms, this beautiful region offers a relaxed atmosphere, rich cultural heritage, and some of southwest China's most memorable scenery.

 6 Reasons to Visit Dali:

1. Enjoy the Beauty of Erhai Lake
Erhai Lake is a stunning highland lake surrounded by mountains, traditional villages, and peaceful lakeside landscapes. Cycle along scenic roads, visit waterfront cafés, or watch the changing colors of the water beneath the vast Yunnan sky.

2. Wander Through Dali Ancient Town
Explore Dali Ancient Town, with its old stone streets, traditional architecture, lively markets, independent boutiques, and charming cafés. The town's laid-back character makes it an ideal place to experience local life at an unhurried pace.

3. Discover the Majestic Cangshan Mountains
Rising dramatically behind Dali, the Cangshan Mountains offer spectacular views, forest trails, and fresh mountain air. Take a cable car or explore selected walking routes to appreciate the region's remarkable combination of alpine scenery and subtropical landscapes.

4. Explore the Legacy of Ancient Kingdoms
Visit the iconic Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple, among the region's most recognizable historical landmarks. These elegant Buddhist pagodas reflect Dali's important role in the history of Buddhism and the ancient kingdoms of southwest China.

5. Experience Bai Ethnic Culture
Visit Xizhou Ancient Town to admire the distinctive courtyard houses and decorative gateways of the Bai people. Discover local markets, traditional handicrafts, and Bai cuisine while learning about the customs and architectural heritage of one of Yunnan's best-known ethnic communities.

6. Savor the Flavors of Yunnan
Try local specialties such as rushan (a traditional Bai cheese), erkuai rice cakes, fresh lake fish, and Yunnan-style mushroom dishes when in season. Dali's food culture reflects the region's agricultural abundance and the diverse traditions of its communities.
