Overview

Your Route Map
Is this trip right for you?
Photographers already in Pu’er who enjoy agricultural landscapes and understand that harvest scenes depend on the season.
Route: Simao → coffee hills → village-edge landscapes → Simao
Overnight plan: 1 night in Pu’er. The final day is departure.
When to travel
Harvest months can add ripe cherries and drying activity; other dates focus on plants, hills and village settings. Weather decides the light.
How your private trip works
The day plan leaves room for meals, comfort stops and the pace of your party. Road times are planning estimates and may lengthen in rain or holiday traffic. Your final proposal confirms the meeting point, hotels, private vehicle, guiding language, included admissions and any booked workshops before payment. Domestic flights and trains are included only when itemised in that proposal. Travel insurance, personal purchases and meals not specified remain separate.
Tell us your dates, number of travellers, ages of children, walking preferences and preferred room arrangement. We can shorten walks and adjust departure times while keeping the overnight route practical. Hosted visits depend on the host’s availability; no shopping purchase is required.

Daily Itinerary
Meet at your Simao hotel in the morning and visit a willing coffee host after discussing the conditions. Start with the growing landscape, then use a seated lunch break before working with afternoon light. Ask before photographing people or equipment, and stay on the routes the host permits. Return to Simao for dinner; this is a local start rather than an airport-arrival day.
Overnight: Pu’er. Travel and walking: Local drives about 1–2 hours in total; short farm walks.
Return to an agreed farm or nearby agricultural viewpoint for early light, choosing a different composition and subject from the first day. Drying beds or cherry sorting are photographed only when they are genuinely in use and the host agrees. Finish with a coffee and lunch before returning to your Simao hotel. Onward transport is arranged separately with enough time after the local finish.
Overnight: Departure. Travel and walking: Local road transfers and flexible short walks.
