The purpose of many tourists coming to Zhangjiajie not only to appreciate the magical natural scenery here, but also to seek happiness and relaxation. Living in the hustle and bustle of the city all day long and being tired of intense work, your mood may have been completely released from the moment you set foot on the journey. However, when you are away from home, you will inevitably come into contact with different people and things. I think this is the last thing that everyone wants to see. Although with the continuous regulation of the tourism market, the intensity of cracking down on illegal activities has been continuously strengthened, some lawbreakers, driven by interests, use good things to make things worse, confusing their eyes with pearls, and using their means to guard against them, causing unprepared tourists to suffer. It is too late to regret. Speaking of this, it does not mean that Zhangjiajie has reached the point of being discouraged. Overall, Zhangjiajie's tourism market is still standardized. As long as you pay attention to the following aspects and make reservations with regular travel agencies in advance without coddling for small profits, many things can be completely avoided.

Preparations before travel:

overhead: Choose the transportation that suits you according to your travel time and your financial situation.

traffic: Read more strategies and do more homework before traveling. It's best to print out your ideal transportation method."A good memory is not as good as a bad writing" to avoid missing trains.

accommodation: When traveling to Fenghuang in Zhangjiajie, don't choose some remote small hotels for cheap reasons that "have many thieves, are unsanitary and unsafe", so as to avoid losing your wife and soldiers.

catering: Zhangjiajie is dominated by Hunan cuisine. You can talk to the boss or chef to cook it according to your own taste and negotiate the price before cooking. In case something unpleasant happens.

shopping: You can buy what you like according to your financial situation. Don't believe that the rare "Polygonum multiflorum" cannot have the mentality of getting rich overnight.

Pay attention to things: Understand the weather and bring good clothes, understand the ticket policy and bring good certificates, pay attention to your own safety and maintain your belongings. Prepare band-aids, anti-inflammatory tablets, antidiarrheal tablets, motion sickness medicine, and bring your own toiletries.

Outbound information: Find a strong, reliable and honest company or individual to sign a legal travel contract.

Travel preparation: Collect information, print strategies, do more classes, be careful, and have fun traveling.

Basic principles of preventing fraud and fraud：

1.Take the initiative to chat up with you and recommend you to introduce the "enthusiastic person", and resolutely avoid it;

2.Don't blindly covet cheap prices, and believe that there will be no pie in the sky. Free and low-priced things will only make you pay more for them;

3. At key points such as railway stations, airports, bus stations, high-speed exits, and ticket stations, we must focus on being wary of wild guides, wild horses and other types of soliciting customers;

4. You must have a plan before traveling, understand and determine your itinerary in advance, and try to avoid asking questions in unfamiliar places and finding out unpleasant things for yourself;

5. If you encounter things that are pestering people, such as being deceived, forced buying and selling, don't be weak. The best solution is to ask relevant local law enforcement agencies to assist in handling it.

Prevent fraud and fraud in travel and shopping

Generally speaking, the shopping market in Zhangjiajie is relatively standardized. Especially in recent years, good results have been achieved in cracking down on illegal shopping venues. There are almost no business behaviors of forced sales and buying. However, tourists should still pay attention to the following aspects when traveling and shopping:

1、Don't spend in "black stores" without a business license;

2、Don't buy "antiques","fossil and strange stones","jewelry and jade" and "precious medicinal materials" casually unless you are very knowledgeable;

3Don't believe in "humanoid Polygonum multiflorum". Even if you look like it, it will still be "rare in a thousand years";

4, see clearly the counter-offer of the goods, negotiate the price before taking it, and ask for vouchers for future reference.

Self-driving tour Zhangjiajie must guard against "wild horses" attack

If you come to Zhangjiajie by self-driving, Wild Horse and Wild Guides will try their best to negotiate with you about tour package and arranging tour guides. Since you are driving a car, the first step they need to do is to get in your car before you arrive in Zhangjiajie. As long as you get in your car, they will have a place to play. There is nothing they want and can't do. Now let me know the precautions to avoid being deceived.

1. Hitchhiking location: Near the fork intersections in cities and counties around Zhangjiajie (such as Li County, Shimen, Changde, Cili), gas stations, highway service stations, toll stations, traffic police duty stations, etc.

2, Selection objects: cars outside Zhangjiajie, minibuses, business coaches, non-line buses or buses...

3Reason for a ride: I am from Zhangjiajie, so I just happened to go back to Zhangjiajie to hitch a ride and show you the way. People who don't know often think that they are lucky and have met a kind-hearted person. More advanced wild horse guides will also appear as staff members of public security, traffic police and government agencies, pretending to be traffic police or traffic police on roadside duty or toll collectors at toll stations to hail a car for him, claiming that they are from there. To do things here, I now need to find a ride back.

after getting on the bus, they bragged about themselves, as if they were extremely capable. All tourism links and departments in Zhangjiajie knew that if they could make a deal with you intentionally on the bus, his task would be completed. If the customer refused, there would be another contact person. After arriving in Zhangjiajie, you will have "more capable" and "more powerful" accomplices negotiate with you. If you are very disgusted, they will follow you like flies. Wherever you go, they will follow you. If these efforts do not work in front of savvy guests, the guests may ask for a hotel or a reputable local travel agency. At this time, they may stare at you like flies and ask for a rebate from the hotel (or travel agency) you are staying at, claiming that this is a guest they have spent a lot of effort to recruit. As a business entity, the hotel (or travel agency) will have to increase the price of accommodation/reception services if it wants to consider giving rebates to "Wild Horse". It is still the guests who suffer losses in this way, and more importantly, it disrupts the normal tourism market order.

Common sales promotion and route arrangement methods for wild guides

1.Tour guide service: The fee is ridiculously low, 30-50 yuan per day, and some people are free. If you think this is trustworthy, you are too childish. At present, the daily wage of an ordinary migrant worker in Zhangjiajie is about 200 yuan. As a tour guide with a special occupation, will he lead the way, climb the mountain, and explain to you at such a low cost? The answer is impossible. Then why did he do this? Of course it's profitable elsewhere. As long as you have such tour guides following you, you will kill you severely in terms of meals, accommodation, etc., and ask you to pay your own expenses for a while, and then ask you to pay your own expenses for a while. In short, after a trip, you will not take out income that is several times, ten times or even dozens of times higher than the tour guide fee, otherwise, they will not do it.

2.In terms of route arrangements: Many tourists do not know enough about the local tourism situation, so they do not consider the issue in detail enough. When talking to some soliciting tourists about tour package, they agree that as long as it seems to be a few nights and a few days of Zhangjiajie's itinerary, and it is full of dense attractions, and the price is particularly affordable, they will recognize it without too much consideration. In fact, this is very wrong. You must first understand the following two facts:

1、The key scenic spots in Zhangjiajie include: Wulingyuan, Tianmen Mountain, Huanglong Cave, Jiutian Cave, Longwang Cave, Baofeng Lake, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, Maoyan River Rafting, Mengdong River Rafting, etc.

2The main residential hotels are distributed in three major areas: Wulingyuan District (also known as Suoxiyu), the entrance of the Forest Park, and Zhangjiajie City.

Beware of soliciting passengers at train stations and trains

Traveling to Zhangjiajie by train is one of the common and affordable transportation methods chosen by many tourists. The crowd on the train is complex, the traffic is large, and there are many problems. Small theft is put aside here for the time being. If you are a tourist, some illegal soliciting people will focus on your "fat" early on. As long as the train enters the surrounding cities and counties near Zhangjiajie, such as Changde, Shimen, Cili, Jishou and other places, they will take action vigorously, claiming to be receptionists of XX Travel Agency, and some will even wear railway uniforms and add big blocks to the battle."Note: Most of them are to confuse tourists. Think carefully, how can any staff on a real train do soliciting passengers? Whether it is true or false is known without saying it. When chatting with you, distribute price lists of various tourist routes, earnestly do "soothing" work for you, and persuade you to join XX XX tourism. How good the quality is, how good the reputation is, and how famous it is." If this group of people does not negotiate with you, a second group of people will come back. It really means that fighting a difficult battle, and their "spirit" is really "valuable".

When they negotiate prices with you, they will always use high-priced "tactics" at the beginning. If you are aware or understand anything, then they will use low-priced "tactics" to lower the price again and again, so that even you yourself don't believe it. There is such a "good thing". Once you succeed, they will open the way. If something goes wrong, you will have no way to complain or cry.

If they don't achieve "achievements" on the train, when you get off the train and arrive at the railway station square, some soliciting people will haunt you like shameless dogs, pulling your hands and your bags. In short, he wants you to participate in his tour, ask him to arrange a tour guide with you, and ask him to provide you with reservation services. If you get really bored of it, they usually won't let go. What is it? That is to send someone to follow you. When you get there, they follow you shamelessly. When you stay in a hotel, they follow you to the hotel. When you stay in a hotel, they ask the hotel for kickbacks, insisting that they introduced these guests.
