We employ local Naxi and Yi ethnic minority trained guides to provide you with an unforgettable experience of our culture and community.
We strive to conserve and protect the region’s biodiversity and provide a sustainable income for local communities.
Our company was started in 2002 by members of the local community. We received training from the Nature Conservancy and Lijiang Tourism Bureau.
You can volunteer with us, help us train guides in scientific knowledge, or give us ideas for community projects.
Traveling to China was such an amazing experience with Lily and her team! I truly felt like I was a part of Chinese culture instead of your typical tourist. They accommodated our large group in all of our activities and we never had any problems.

This was my first time in China and on this trip, I traveled in a group of 8. I truly believe that Lijiang Xintuo Ecotourism is the best way to truly experience the Chinese culture at its finest. Thanks to Lily we were able to explore Lijiang’s natural beauty and history.

We spent 10 days hiking around Lijiang area, with our 2 kids. The landscapes, guesthouses, horseriding, hikes, biking were amazing. Our guide Mona was very patient and adapted to our pace. Thank you to Lily’s team for the perfect organization!

We are a group of friends living in Shanghai, we really wanted to discover Yunnan, but we had to travel during Chinese holidays and heard a lot about the crazy crowd in Yunnan at this time of year… So we planned a week trying to escape the crowd and found this ecotour agency which was recommended on a forum.

I spent one week in Yunnan. This week was organized by Lily from Xintuo Ecotourim few weeks ago before I arrived in China. I wanted to be close to the local people far from mass tourism and this is excatly what I found.

We strive to empower local people in Yunnan. We are an employee and community-owned ecotourism company.
10% of our own profits are given to a community development fund.
As we want to make sure you have a perfect time with us, we book everything before your arrival.
