From Xiaguan Bus Station:
Expect to pay 40 RMB for a taxi to the Jade Emu International Guest House. The taxi driver will not use a meter to get to Dali Old Town. This is the standard rate for locals as well.
Alternatively, for those on a tight budget... Catch a taxi to the No.4 bus terminal (四路汽车站). It should cost 5 RMB. From there buses leave every 5-10 minutes. The fare is 1.5 RMB. Get off at the 'Red Dragon Well' stop in Dali Old Town (红龙井) . This is one stop after the bus enters the small South Gate of Dali Old Town. Walk upstream (a waterway runs down the pathway) until you reach the Red Dragon Well Gate on the West Wall of Dali Old Town (approximately 3 mins walk). Pass through it and cross the Highway, walk right 20m and turn left at the small road. You should see a Jade Emu Guesthouse sign on your left. 50m up this road, turn right. You will see the Jade Emu International Guesthouse entrance...
From Xiaguan Train Station:
Catch the No.8 Bus outside the train station. The fare is 1.5 RMB. Get off at the West Gate in Dali Old Town (approximately 30 minutes on the bus. It is the last stop). From the West Gate, cross the highway and turn left. You're going the right way if you pass the transit police building. Walk about 500m until you see the Jade Emu International Guesthouse sign on a wall and turn right up a small street (you will also see the West Wall beginning 30m ahead of you on the other side of the highway). 50m up this small road, turn right and you will see the Jade Emu entrance...
From Dali Old Town
Some mini-buses from Kunming will drop you off in Dali Old Town at various locations. With the map in hand it is an easy walk to the Guest House. If it's been a long day and your backpack/luggage is too heavy, a local taxi will drive you to the Guest House for 10 RMB.
From Dali Airport
A Taxi from the airport will cost 80-100 RMB to the Jade Emu International Guest House
From LiJiang
The "Lijiang Express" bus service is recommended as it will drop you off near the West Gate of Dali Old Town (only 300m away from us). Other services will probably drop you off at the East Gate and require a taxi to get here. Be sure to tell the driver you want to get off at Dali Old Town or otherwise you might find yourself in XiaGuan (Dali New City).
An important note about taxi drivers...
Please note some drivers may try to tell you a range of stories such as "The Jade Emu no longer exists" or "The Jade Emu is in a dangerous area of Dali". They do this in an attempt to take you to a less reputable guesthouse that pays them commission to take you there. Our advice in this situation is to find another driver.
