doing a day tour by ourselves so need help on itinerary, so which should we go first? most efficient route...

YULONG snow mountain
dongba valley
prairie
baishui river
ganhaizi
black dragon pool
Lugu lake
shuhe old city

can we do this by public transpo/taxi? or better off joining a tour group? one thing i dislike about tourgroups is they bring you to places your not interested in, and in places where you want to see they rush you.

need all your help..!

I think you seriously need to do more background reading. You're asking for the impossible.
To start with, Lugu Lake is about perhaps 7 hours by bus each way from Lijiang!

The last week, I came back from Lijiang. I think that only one day, you can prairie to ride horse on the Tea-horse Ancient Road and go to the Shuhe ancient town.
In my details, there are the photos shoot in the Lijiang.

Hi there
I travelled to Lijiang alone 2 years ago on a 6-day trip.Visited most places of interests you listed ie. baishui river, yulong snow mountain, black dragon pool,suhe old city, national miniature park,luguhu shangrila.You definitely need to spend at least one day in luguhu.I had a wonderful time there.Native people (naxizu) are honest and diligent. A local taxi driver showed me around Lijiang. He was a decent guy.Email me at greenbamboo534@gmail.com if you want his contact.
