We made the most of our time having him guiding us. He was our "photographer" anytime we wanted a photo and that was very often. We had the most fantastic experience with our tour guide, Jack Fan, who is very knowledgeable about the Yellow Mountain and was able to get us quickly to the most stunning highlights.
