I actually got Rosey as my tour guide through another tour company I contacted, who subcontracted me to her for my long weekend trip to the Yunnan province (Lijiang, Shaxi, Tiger Leaping Gorge, etc) . It was only after Rosey and I started touring together did I learn she had her own company. I am so lucky to have met her! And I regret not just starting with Rosey for the entire planning/execution of my trip. She's a bit modest in the description of her services above, as she is super organized and very very knowledgeable and well versed in the history of this region. She is flexible and quite patient, and her prices are very reasonable as well. She is a better high altitude hiker than me! Her English is super strong, and she literally has grown up in the hospitality industry. I had a great time with her visiting the old villages of the Bai, Lejiang, and Shuhe. We also saw several beautiful Buddhist temples, one even had monkeys.

The main attraction of my visit was hiking in Tiger Leaping Gorge. We started from Qiaotou village to Naxi Family Guest House (that was the killer day of hiking surprisingly), then from Naxi to Halfway Guest House the 2nd day, counting all 28 of the famous turns on that day of hiking. It was incredible. Snow Mountain and Jade Dragon Mountain and the gorge below are stunning. I am so glad I found this little slice of heaven in China. That's all I had time to do so I plan to go back and complete the remainder of the hike with Rosey next time I am in China. (I go for work so that's not an impossible task.)

I didn't receive much information from the company I paid to help me prepare and pack properly for this trip. Rosey, I now know, is right there, local, and would have been more accessible for questions and would have given me a detailed itinerary beforehand as well. All worked out very well for my long weekend getaway to the Tiger Leaping Gorge area, but I owe that to Rosey who is such an expert tour guide in this region. I can't recommend her enough! Definitely contact Rosey for your trip to this region!

I paid attention to the ranking on this site and in my Google search to chose my tour company. Let this be good the proof that the best person for the job is not necessarily the top person on the list. Rosey works hard for her clients, but it seems challenging to move up in the rankings of these tour company reviews. More people who have toured with Rosey need to speak up here. Read less

We booked Rosey + car and driver for 4 days and had an excellent time in Yunnan thanks to her guidance and kindness.
She picked us up in Dali airport (she was there one hour before just in case) and organized the visits of Dali, Lijiang and finally Shangri-La, including Jade Dragon mountain and Leaping Tiger Gorge (her home village) on the way. She proposed many things to visit and was also very attentive to our wishes. We had booked hotels by ourselves through booking.com (our choice) but we were very fortunate to have her to bring us there, which often required calling the hotel to get better directions than what was available on booking.com (which would have been very difficult without speaking Chinese).
Her English is really good enough, and exchanges with her were very easy and relaxed. We had interesting explanations and answers to all of our questions, she knows the country really well. I really recommend her as a guide, probably one the best choices in upper Yunnan. We were three middle aged French people, but I think she'd be fine for any type of group, she is very professional.
