This one leaves from Cebu, which is the whole reason it exists. If you are in the Visayas and tired of flying to Manila first to go anywhere, this is your Yunnan trip.
Xiamen Airlines takes you via Jinjiang to Kunming. From there it is Dali for the old town and the Santorini white terraces at the Dali Ideal City, Xizhou for the Bai minority architecture, then Lijiang for the ancient city and Jade Dragon Snow Mountain by the Spruce Meadow cable car with the Impression Lijiang show. Blue Moon Valley after that, then back south through the Chuxiong Yi ancient town to Kunming for the Naigu Stone Forest, Haigeng Dam and Park 1903.
Seven departures from November 2026 to March 2027, from ₱64,935 per person all in, which is USD 999. Four star hotels throughout and breakfast plus eight meals.
There are four retail stops on the programme. They are listed below rather than left for you to find on the bus.

Correct, and that is the point of it. The flights are Cebu to Jinjiang and back on Xiamen Airlines. If you are in the Visayas this saves you the Manila leg entirely. If you are in Luzon, factor in getting to Cebu yourself, or ask us about the Manila departures to Yunnan instead.
Because of how the Xiamen Airlines routing works. The Cebu flight lands at Jinjiang at ten at night and the Kunming connection leaves the next morning. The airline arranges that night’s hotel and it is in your price. You get the same again on the way home, with an afternoon in Quanzhou rather than sitting in the airport.
Four, and they are on the programme rather than sprung on you: a medicinal herbs exhibition centre on Day 3, a latex and silk store on Day 4, a jewellery shop on Day 5 and an astaxanthin shop on Day 6. Nothing is compulsory to buy and there is no surcharge for not buying.
The Spruce Meadow cable car on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain reaches above 4,500 metres, and Lijiang itself sits at about 2,400. That is high enough to affect people. Go gently on Day 3, drink plenty of water, and talk to your doctor first if you have heart or lung trouble.
Yes. A China group visa costs USD 40 per person, about ₱2,600. It is a group document, so you enter and leave China together with the group.
Breakfast every morning plus eight meals across the eight days. The Lijiang group dinner can be upgraded to the Imperial Banquet for USD 25 in a regular seat or USD 40 in a VIP seat.
A child from 11 to 17 with their own bed pays the adult rate. A child from 2 to 10 without a bed starts at USD 949, about ₱61,685. Tell us the ages and the sleeping arrangement when you book and we will quote exactly.
Yes, for a single supplement of ₱10,400, which is USD 160. Without it you are in a twin room with another traveller.
