We discovered Kili Slope Tours and Safaris through Facebook and reached out ahead of the trip to get all the details. After confirming the booking for a 2-day budget safari, we embarked on our adventure. On Day 1, traveling from Arusha to Tarangire National Park was an exciting experience, especially in a private 4x4 safari jeep that offered both comfort and excellent views. Tarangire impressed us with its massive elephant herds and stunning baobab trees. Our guide Shuma was patient, knowledgeable, and exceptionally kind to our children, ensuring they felt safe and included throughout. Day 2 was nothing short of incredible. Exploring the Ngorongoro Conservation Area was surreal—witnessing the wildlife concentrated within the crater was unforgettable. Finally, Lake Manyara provided the perfect closure to our safari, with its serene scenery and peaceful ambiance. Overall, we were extremely pleased with Kili Slope Tours and Safaris.

Located at No. 115, Daquan Road, Xialu District, Huangshi City, Hubei Province, this ancient temple lights up after sunset, turning into a tranquil haven with its softly glowing lanterns and intricate rooftops highlighted against the night sky. As you approach Guanghong Temple in the evening, the illuminated building complex stands out with its classic eaves, red pillars, and crafted stone steps. The courtyard is open and calm, inviting visitors to slow down and take in the serene surroundings. Locals can often be seen taking quiet walks, while the air is filled with a sense of peace, away from the city's hustle. Nighttime also accentuates the temple’s architectural details, perfect for close-up photos of tile work and window patterns.

Just got back from Yellowstone, let me be honest... I really don’t recommend going❌ Although the photos of Yellowstone online look unbelievably beautiful, the actual experience is quite disappointing. That place, known as "the most beautiful place on Earth," now feels more like a crowded open-air parking lot🏞️ 🌄TIPS: 1. Old Faithful Geyser is indeed punctual, but you only get about 1 minute of enjoyment. The area is packed with tourists holding selfie sticks, making it harder than climbing a mountain to get a solo photo 2. Yellowstone Grand Canyon? It should be renamed "Crowd Canyon." The best viewing platforms are always packed with tour groups, quietly watching the sunset is simply a luxury 3. Accommodation is ridiculously expensive! Rooms are small and old, yet prices rival five-star hotels. The worst part is you have to book six months in advance 4. There are many animals, but keep your distance. I saw tourists get gored by bison firsthand, it’s terrifying 5. Few restaurant options, fast food inside the park is expensive and tastes bad, bring your own snacks 📍Real impressions: - The thermal pools are beautiful, but the sulfur smell makes your eyes water - Roads are painfully narrow, expect at least 2 hours of traffic jams during peak season - Restrooms are in poor condition and often have long lines - Weather is unpredictable, down jacket in the morning, short sleeves at noon - Most hiking trails are desolate, not recommended to go alone 🍔Food warnings: Restaurants inside the park have very low cost-performance, $30 per person only gets you a burger and fries. It’s better to stock up in West Yellowstone town, though far, prices are at least normal. 🚗Transportation advice: Don’t even think about relying on public transport, distances between attractions are huge. Either drive yourself or join a tour, otherwise you’ll be stuck at the visitor center unable to move.

On New Year's Eve 2025, Oriental Mountain presents exciting activities! The scenic area opens for ticket inspection and entry at 18:00. It is recommended to arrive early to receive a free blessing ribbon and lotus lantern. The temperature in the mountain area at night is low, so remember to wear warm clothing. From 20:00 to 23:30, the event kicks off with many highlights. On the first floor of Dongchang Pavilion, there are Journey to the West interactive performances: 20:00 - 20:10 "The Tang Emperor Welcomes the Master and Disciples," 21:00 - 21:10 "The Wealthy Man Seeks a Bride," and 22:00 - 22:10 "The Grand Banquet of the Tang Dynasty."

Following in the footsteps of Team Jin from the Blue Sky Rescue Team, I unlocked the "Big Loop Up, Small Loop Down" route at Huangshi Baishiya, which was undoubtedly my most hardcore and happiest hiking experience of the year! 💪 ▪️ Hardcore Route, Double the Fun The whole hike was like a challenge game: ▶️ Steep Slope + Cliff Climbing Section: Using both hands and feet, clinging tightly to the cliff face to find handholds, truly "clinging to the rocks" to move forward, every step required focus and courage. ▶️ Jungle Trekking Section: Carving a path through dense forests and bushes, with a section on the descent requiring bending over and "cramming into the grass," incredibly wild and fun. ▶️ Classic "Butt Descent": The slope was so steep it made you question your existence! The dirt road was slippery, and a slight misstep would trigger automatic sliding mode. The "butt descent," though messy, was filled with laughter and quite stress-relieving. ▪️ Summit Feast, Energy Recharge Station But! All the fatigue was cured by a "luxury mountaintop meal" after reaching the summit! 🔥 Amidst the gentle breeze and breathtaking scenery, our mountain chef, Liang Ge, prepares a steaming hot pot and a pot of fragrant rice. The first bite of this hot food melts away all fatigue, leaving you instantly refreshed and revitalized! This is absolutely the most indispensable and soul-stirring part of any hike. ▪️ Professional Leader, Peace of Mind Special thanks to Team Leader Jin from the Blue Sky Rescue Team for their leadership and professional guidance. With them there, even the treacherous route felt incredibly safe. Summary: This route is wild and quite dangerous, unsuitable for beginners or solo hikes. A professional leader is essential. However, it's an absolute gem for thrill-seekers, nature lovers, and those who enjoy the fun of hiking in a group. It challenges you and allows you to find energy and healing in the most primal joy.

Yellowstone in October, painted in autumn colors🍁 Arriving at Hayden Valley at dusk, we just caught a golden sunset. Nearby crowds and vehicles, distant grizzly bears and elk, all bathed in a soothing warm yellow light, with a magical rain curtain and a wondrous rainbow hanging in the sky. We climbed a hill by the roadside and stood side by side, gazing out over the endless golden fields. Time stood still. | 72 2025.10 📌Hayden Valley is about 20 kilometers from the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and is an animal viewing spot comparable to Lamar Valley.

[Heart] The century-old Huangshi cement factory turned arts district is so much fun to explore! 👉🏻 A free-to-enter industrial-style paradise, featuring three massive wet-process rotary kilns that are truly impressive, red brick factory buildings + rusty iron tracks—every snap looks like a vintage masterpiece. The old workshop has been converted into a museum where you can see production marks of the same cement used for the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, with nostalgic slogans full of stories~ 👉🏻 The creative zone hides treasure bookstores and cafes, and the slag warehouse turned exhibition hall often hosts famous exhibitions and lawn camping, perfect for young people. You can unlock the collision of history and trendiness in just half a day! 🚇 Convenient transportation with direct access from the city center, loved by industrial enthusiasts and artsy youth alike. A must-visit for local Huangshi trips~

Our honeymoon safari offered a thrilling and intriguing experience with Kili Slope Tours and Safaris. They truly made our honeymoon stunning, allowing us to feel both private and cozy. Tarangire National Park was our first stop. The elephants we saw meandering beneath the giant baobabs immediately set a romantic tone. Our guide was Piter—he was laid-back, made our safari serene, was skilled, and provided great assistance. Lake Manyara wowed us with its verdant landscapes and soft light reflecting off the water, setting an ideal atmosphere for newlyweds. Upon arriving in the Serengeti, it felt like entering a love story crafted by nature. Observing animals roaming free with the sky blushing at sunset created enduring memories. We savored each drive. Ngorongoro Crater offered a dramatic finale of stunning scenery. Gazing from the rim seemed like a once-in-a-lifetime vista, and exploring the crater floor felt like becoming part of something both ancient and beautiful. The Kili Slope team added warmth and hospitality each day. Truly, it was the ideal start to our journey together.
