At around 8:30am, your guide and driver will pick you up from the hotel you’ve booked in advance, and then escort you to the Pier to take the Li River Cruise to Yangshuo County. The boarding time is scheduled at 9:30am, and the whole journey takes about 4 hours.
With your guide's company and descriptions, you will immerse yourself in the stunning karst landscape exclusively offered by Guilin. Stretching for 83 kilometers (52 miles) from downtown Guilin to Yangshuo, the Li River is just like an emerald belt winding amid lush karst hills, oddly-shaped peaks, and peaceful rural villages. You get to sightsee a gorgeous gallery exhibiting the most graceful spots in the world, including Yellow Cloth Shoal, the view of which is even printed on the 20 RMB banknote. You may prepare a 20 RMB note in advance and take a comparative photo when passing by it. In addition to the constantly changing karst vistas, you may also encounter some local fishermen rowing a narrow bamboo raft, fishing with a net, or working in fields with buffaloes.
Around noon, have a simple lunch offered onboard by the cruise company and continue the cruise.

After disembarking at around 2pm, take a stroll on the famous West Street, and then tour around the countryside of Yangshuo. The essence of the Guilin's landscape can be found in Yangshuo, whose rural villages are among the most beautiful villages in China and blessed with favorable mild climate all year round. During your private tour, you could go deeper into the countryside to keep yourself totally away from urban hustle and bustle. The place is also a paradise for bikers, with plenty of country trails for visitors to take in the idyllic scenery. So we will arrange a cycling tour for you to discover more hidden gems like the Moon Hill, Big Banyan Tree and Water Cave, which will add much joy to your one day Guilin Li River cruise tour. Alternatively, if you don’t want to travel by bike, a private car drive will take you there and you could stop at any amazing places you wish. Halfway through, you will also visit a local farmer's house. There are no better ways than a family visit to learn about local people and their daily life.
At the end of this Guilin Yangshuo tour, you will be given a 1.5-hour ride back to your hotel in Guilin. Thank you for travelling with us!
