Customize Your Yunnan Journey
At Yunnan Eco Tours, every trip is thoughtfully handcrafted by our local team with care, cultural insight, and sustainability in mind. We don’t do cookie-cutter travel. Instead, we work closely with each guest to design a journey that’s personal, meaningful, and deeply rooted in the real Yunnan.
On our website, you’ll find several example itineraries—but think of them as inspiration, not fixed packages. Each one reflects the kinds of experiences we love to share, but your final tour will be unique to you.

Sample Tours
Into the Unbeaten South
Unbeaten Southern Yunnan is a journey into one of China’s most culturally rich yet least explored regions. Traveling beyond the main tourist routes, this experience takes you into vibrant Dai markets, mist-covered dense forests, deep river valleys, ancient fossil villages, the largest rice terrace region in the country, and the historic town famed for producing Yunnan’s most iconic tofu. Moving slowly and thoughtfully, you’ll connect with local communities, experience diverse regional food cultures, and explore Yunnan’s extraordinary landscapes — offering an intimate, grounded perspective of the south that few travelers ever encounter.
Vietnam Railway – Tracing the Tracks of History
Step back in time on the Yunnan–Vietnam Railway, China’s first international railway built by the French over a century ago. This journey isn’t just about trains—it’s about exploring the towns, markets, and cultures that blossomed along the line.From Kunming’s hand-carved tunnels to Jianshui’s grand Confucian temples and purple pottery, from the industrial heritage of Kaiyuan to the bustling ethnic markets of Pingbian, every stop tells a story of trade, culture, and connection. Taste Jianshui’s legendary tofu, walk through century-old railway stations, and end your trip gazing over the stunning Hani rice terraces of Yuanyang—a living masterpiece built over 1,300 years.
