Day 1 Guilin Arrival, Transfer to Longsheng
Your guide will pick you up from the airport according to your flight schedule and then transfer you to Longsheng Rice Terraces directly. It takes around 2 hours driving. You will stay overnight at the hillside hotel. The rest of the day is free for you to explore surrouding areas or just enjoy the magnificent view from the windows of your hotel. It will be a quiet night. Sleep tight and be ready for the longer hiking the next day.
Day 2 Longsheng Rice Terraces, Bamboo Rice Lunch, Longsheng - Guilin

Longsheng Rice Terraces
Hiking is the best way to admire the endless stunning rice terraces. Have a big breakfast and pack everything. Your guide will accompany you to start today's hiking adventure, about 5 hours from Longsheng to Jinkeng terrace fields.
The hiking routes are in good condition. Each path will lead you to different views from different angles of the rice terraces. You will have access to explore the local minority ethnic groups. Discover the traditional houses and architecture and feast your eyes on the pure country life and the beautiful village scenery. Lunch will be served at a local farmhouse to taste authentic family dishes, among which the bamboo rice is the most characteristic one.
Take the sightseeing bus downhill to the parking lot and then your driver will drive you back to Guilin. (Tips: Clients can only take sightseeing bus provided by the site to Dazhai or back from the starting point. It is not allowed to get on or off the bus midway. If you are energetic enough, we suggest you hike to Dazhai for about 5 hours single way and take bus back to Longsheng. If 5 hours is too long for you, the option is to take a one hour hiking from Longsheng to the ancient Zhuang Minority Village and then come back the same way.)
Meals: Western style breakfast, Lunch

Day 3 Guilin - Xianggong Hill - Xingping - Yangshuo
Yangshuo Countryside
Today's arrangement is full of interests. We will transfer you to Xianggong Hill from where your Li River hiking begins. You will hike and take ferry boat in turns and pass several ferries and villages to reach Yangshuo finally. You will have an immersed sense by visiting the essence of the Li River and the local villages. Without doubt, the itinerary will lead you to the dreamy rural scenery where you can indulge yourself in the blue sky and crystal water.
After visiting all of the highlights along the Li River, you will reach Xingping where your driver is waiting for you. Xingping is an ancient fishing village with tranquil atmosphere, modest streets, and the unsophisticated and warmhearted villagers. You may walk along the stone walkway which is covered with emerald moss to get close to the simple folkway. After that, drive you to Yangshuo and your guide will help you check in to the hotel. You may explore the West Street and choose a good restaurant to have dinner by yourself.

Hiking route along the Yulong River
We will transfer you through the countryside and you will get close to the rural life - the villagers working in the fields with their buffalos and pieces of green rice paddies are in front of your eyes. At this moment, you will totally forget the rapid rhythm of the city and experience a carefree and relaxing life there.
Afterwards, take a hiking trip along the Yulong River for about three to four hours. This river offers some spectacular views along its two banks. Follow the hiking route winding and bending in and out of the farms, fields, orchards and villages. There is no better way to experience the quintessential beauty of the Yangshuo countryside.
