[quote=ELLYSE,368160]I really think that you're trying to cover too much ground in too few days. It would be the prime season for Jiuzhaigou, but you would need 2-3 days for this, assuming you're including Huanglong as well. You would have to fly, buses aren't recommended for this destination, and there're no trains. Look on http://www.jiuzhai.com/language/english/index.html for good information about various aspects of Jiuzhaigou. I've heard that Emeishan needs at least 2 days, if you do it in a day you're not realistically going to see anything. Similarly I would give Chengdu at least 2 days. I would leave Kunming for another occasion where I could combine it with other worthy destinations in Yunnan province. There's no need to squeeze it in as what, a stopover destination?? Guilin/Yangshuo is relatively close to Nanning and can be done in about 3-5 days. Stay in Yangshuo instead of Guilin as Guilin is just a tourist city catering to Chinese tour groups. Look on http://www.yangers.com for good information about what you could do and see there. Looking at this, I would advise that you skip Kunming (leave it for another trip), and perhaps also skip Emeishan if you run out of time. If you're entering and exiting via Nanning, then a reasonable itinerary would be: Nanning (transit) -- bus -- Yangshuo (4 days) -- bus -- Guilin (transit) -- flight -- Chengdu (transit) -- flight -- Jiuzhaigou (3 days) -- flight -- Chengdu (4 days including Emeishan) -- flight -- Nanning. I should be able to help you get all the flight tickets that you need, as well as perhaps accommodation bookings. What price range are you looking at for accommodation? Nanning -- Guilin: bus Guilin -- Kunming: flight, or overnight train Kunming -- Chengdu: flight, or long-ish overnight train Chengdu -- Jiuzhaigou: flight Jiuzhaigou -- Nanning: flight via Chengdu[/quote]
