1.Why didn’t I receive a text message notification after registering?

2. What if it rains during the event?

2-3 days before the event, we will decide whether the event will proceed as scheduled based on the weather forecast and route conditions. Please pay attention to our notifications. Most activities can proceed as usual even if there is light rain. There is still fun to be had on rainy days. If heavy rain is forecast, the event will be cancelled and a full refund will be given to everyone.

3. Is this route crowded?

Most of our routes are natural and niche, with relatively small traffic. Of course, it also depends on the registration situation for each period. Generally, ordinary models are 37-seat buses, and a few large models are 53-seat. Each car has a certain proportion of tour leaders to ensure the quality of the event.

Muli Village: This village boasts a healthy ecology and unique topography. Nestled on a mountain ridge, with three sides suspended in the air, it is rich in Hui culture and is known as the "Alpine Village of Huangshan Wonderland." Muli Village is shaped like a camel, and from the front mountain, one can see the entire village across. The scenery is breathtaking, especially after rain, when a sea of ​​clouds can be seen. The village feels like a fairyland.
